  • Publication number: 20240004971
    Abstract: Aspects of the disclosure relate to multicomputer processing and dissemination of data files. A computing platform having at least one processor, a memory, and a communication interface may search one or more social media platforms for unauthorized dissemination of a data file. The computing platform may correlate a unique identifying feature(s) of the disseminated data file to that of a copy of the data file previously distributed to a linked user account. The computing platform may transmit, via the communication interface, to an administrative computing device, an unauthorized dissemination report which, when processed by the administrative computing device causes a notification to be displayed on the administrative computing device. The notification may identify the linked user account associated with the unauthorized dissemination, the name, content, or general nature of the data file, and/or the social media platform(s) on which the data file was discovered.

  • Publication number: 20230289439
    Abstract: Aspects of the disclosure relate to preventing unauthorized screen capture activity. A computing platform may detect, via an infrared sensor associated with a computing device, an infrared signal from a second device attempting an unauthorized image capture of contents being displayed by a display device of the computing device. Subsequently, the computing platform may determine, via the computing platform, the contents being displayed by the display device. Then, the computing platform may retrieve a record of the contents being displayed by the display device. Then, the computing platform may determine a risk level associated with the infrared signal. Subsequently, the computing platform may perform, via the computing platform and based on the risk level, a remediation task to prevent the unauthorized image capture.

  • Patent number: 11637870
    Abstract: Aspects of the disclosure relate to improving user responses to cyber security threats. A computing platform may generate a test communication to simulate a potential cyber threat activity. Then, the computing platform may send, via the communication interface, the test communication to a user device associated with a target user. Then, the computing platform may receive, via the communication interface and from the user device, a response to the test communication. Subsequently, the computing platform may determine, based on the response, a threat awareness level for the target user, where the threat awareness level is indicative of a susceptibility of the target user to the potential cyber threat activity. Then, the computing platform may send, to the target user and based on the threat awareness level, an alert notification to counter the cyber threat activity.

  • Patent number: 11630889
    Abstract: Aspects of the disclosure relate to physiological sensor-based monitoring and control systems. A computing device may determine a physiological measurement. Then, the computing device may compare the physiological measurement with one or more baseline values to determine whether the physiological measurement is anomalous with respect to the one or more baseline values. When the physiological measurement is determined to be anomalous with respect to the one or more baseline values, the computing device may execute access control on a device to prevent access by a user to one or more systems, applications, resources, or the like.

  • Patent number: 11329987
    Abstract: Aspects of the disclosure relate to protecting enterprise computing resources by implementing an optical air gap system. A computing platform may receive, from an external communications server, a message. The computing platform then may generate an image representation of the message received from the external communications server. Subsequently, the computing platform may execute an optical character recognition (OCR) process on the image representation of the message, which may produce a recreated message. Then, the computing platform may validate contents of the recreated message. Based on validating the contents of the recreated message, the computing platform may send, to an enterprise communications server, the recreated message, and sending the recreated message to the enterprise communications server may cause the enterprise communications server to deliver the recreated message to at least one enterprise user computing device.

  • Publication number: 20210392133
    Abstract: Systems for dynamically controlling authentication data are presented. In some examples, registration data may be received. The registration data may include user data, contact information, and authentication data which may include deoxyribonucleic acid (DNA) data of a user. In some arrangements, a request to process an event may be received. The request may include event details which may be used to determine or identify an authentication tier of the event. Based on the identified authentication tier, one or more authentication factors for request may be dynamically identified. The request for authentication factors may be transmitted to a user device and authentication response data may be received. The authentication response data may be compared to the authentication data received at registration (or otherwise pre-stored) to determine whether a match exists. If the data matches, the event may be authorized for processing. If not, the event process request may be denied.
