Patent number: 9317680Abstract: A method and system for protecting against unknown malicious activities by determining a reputation of a link are disclosed. A reputation server queries a database including reputation information associated with a plurality of links to retrieve a reputation of a redirected link. The reputation information may indicate whether the links are associated with a malicious activity. The reputation of the redirected link may be associated with the original link to create a reputation of the original link.Type: GrantFiled: October 20, 2010Date of Patent: April 19, 2016Assignee: McAfee, Inc.Inventors: Russell Bertrand Carter, III, Pravat Kumar Lall, Geoff Oitment, Davoud Maha, Javed Hasan

Publication number: 20130091580Abstract: Disclosed are systems and methods for preventing (or at least deterring) a user from inadvertently or directly consuming illegal content on the Internet. For example, determine when a user might visit a site distributing illegal content (i.e., material in violation of a copyright or otherwise inappropriately distributed) and presenting a warning to the user prior to navigating to the identified inappropriate distribution site. Optionally, alternative distribution sites (i.e., an authorized distribution site) for the same or similar material can be presented to the user. For example, a user might be likely to visit an inappropriate distribution site when sent a message containing a link or when search results from a search engine query identify a plurality of distributors for a requested movie, song, book, etc. By informing a user of illegal sources and possible alternatives, a user can obtain the desired electronic distribution without violating an author's intellectual property rights.Type: ApplicationFiled: October 11, 2011Publication date: April 11, 2013Applicant: McAfee, Inc.Inventors: Davoud Maha, Pravat Lall, Brian Trombley
