Patents by Inventor David Hugh Munson

David Hugh Munson has filed for patents to protect the following inventions. This listing includes patent applications that are pending as well as patents that have already been granted by the United States Patent and Trademark Office (USPTO).

  • Patent number: 11928245
    Abstract: A compromised data exchange system extracts data from websites using a crawler, detects portions within the extracted data that resemble personally identifying information (PII) data based on PII data patterns using a risk assessment module, and compares a detected portion to data within a database of disassociated compromised PII data to determine a match using the risk assessment module. A risk score may be assigned to a data item within the database in response to determining the match. In some embodiments, URL data may also be detected in the extracted data. The detected URL data represents further websites that can be automatically crawled by the system to detect further PII data.

  • Patent number: 10599872
    Abstract: In some embodiments, a compromised data exchange system may include an interface configured to couple to a network, a processor, and a memory accessible to the processor. The memory may be configured to store instructions that, when executed, cause the processor to extract data from one or more websites using a crawler, detect portions within the data that resemble personally identifying information (PO) data based on PII data patterns using a risk assessment module, and to compare a detected portion to data within a database of disassociated compromised PII data to determine a match using the risk assessment module. The instructions may further cause the processor to selectively assign a risk score to a data item within the database in response to determining the match using a risk scoring module.
