  • Publication number: 20230108849
    Abstract: A content transport security system includes a computing platform having processing hardware and a memory storing software code and a database including one or more business rule(s). The processing hardware executes the software code to intercept a content file including a content asset, during a file transfer of the content file between a client device and a destination device, determine an authorization status of the destination device, and decrypt the content file, using a decryption key corresponding to an encryption key available to the client device. The processing hardware further executes the software code to search the content asset for a forensic identifier, assign a classification to the file transfer, based on the authorization status and a result of the searching, the classification being one of allowable, forbidden, or suspicious, and allow or block the file transfer to the destination device, based on the classification and the business rule(s).

  • Publication number: 20210117480
    Abstract: A tangible, non-transitory machine-readable medium includes machine readable instructions that, when executed by processing circuitry, cause the processing circuitry to receive an inquiry regarding digital content. The inquiry is indicative of a request for the digital content or a request for a determination to be made regarding the digital content. The instructions, when executed, also cause the processing circuitry to process the inquiry by analyzing aggregated result data generated using a series of neural network layers based on the digital content and metadata associated with the digital content. Furthermore, the instructions, when executed, cause the processing circuitry to generate response data to the inquiry using a neural network based on analyzing the aggregated result data.
