  • Patent number: 9485218
    Abstract: A device to prevent, detect and respond to one or more security threats between one or more controlled hosts and one or more services accessible from the controlled host. The device determines the authenticity of a user of a controlled host and activates user specific configurations under which the device monitors and controls all communications between the user, the controlled host and the services. As such, the device ensures the flow of only legitimate and authorized communications. Suspicious communications, such as those with malicious intent, malformed packets, among others, are stopped, reported for analysis and action. Additionally, upon detecting suspicious communication, the device modifies the activated user specific configurations under which the device monitors and controls the communications between the user, the controlled host and the services.

  • Patent number: 7308706
    Abstract: Systems and methods for an associative policy model are provided. One embodiment of the present invention provides a method for implementing an associative policy. In this embodiment, the method includes providing a policy on a policy server, the policy having a service definition that contains first and second relational components, providing first and second network entities, operatively coupling the first and second network entities to the policy server, dynamically associating the first network entity with the second network entity (wherein such associating includes binding the first relational component of the service definition in the policy to the first network entity, and binding the second relational component of the service definition in the policy to the second network entity), and enforcing the policy on the first and second network entities.
