  • Patent number: 8856920
    Abstract: A system and method are provided for supporting storage and analysis by law enforcement agency premises equipment of intercepted network traffic. The system and method provide integrity of the intercepted network traffic stored in an archive in accordance with lawful intercept requirements by storing all of the intercepted traffic, both benign and malicious, in the archive in its original form. The system and method furthermore provide for security from any malicious data packets of the archive by separating the malicious packets from the benign packets and forwarding only the benign packets to analysis applications of the law enforcement agency premises equipment.
    Type: Grant

  • Patent number: 8438582
    Abstract: A soft-denial system for client-server networks is disclosed for translating server authorization denials into responses that are known to be innocuous to the client application. The soft-denial system includes a client-application which originates a service request across a network to a server-application which rejects the request due to lack of authorization and subsequently provides a denial response. A soft-denial application intercepts the denial response, translates the response into a response known to be innocuous to the client-application, and forwards the innocuous response to the client-application. The soft-denial system is particularly useful for overcoming client-application failures due to authorization expectation mismatches.

  • Publication number: 20080313708
    Abstract: A method, device and system for matching data content, including identifying items of data that would be potentially harmful if transferred through a network, creating a list containing the identified items of potentially harmful data, deriving a hash value for each item of data on the list, receiving a data stream containing data packets, calculating a hash value for each data packet in the data stream, evaluating whether any of the hash values calculated for the data packets in the data stream match any of the hash values derived for each item of data on the list, discovering a hash value match between one of the data packets in the data stream and one of the items of data on the list, comparing the actual contents of the one data packet in the data stream to the actual contents of the one item of data on the list, confirming a match between the actual contents of the one data packet in the data stream and the one item of data on the list, and applying a filter policy that restricts a further transfer of th
