  • Value-based information flow tracking in software packages
    Patent number: 11347887
    Abstract: A computer-implemented method, computer system, and computer program product are directed to improving computer security of a device using value based information flow tracking. Embodiments automatically capture raw data values from a data source of the device and store in memory the captured raw data values in a collection of sensitive data. Embodiments determine whether computed values of functions of a data flow are included in the collection of sensitive data. Based upon the determining, embodiments prevent values of the collection of sensitive data from being transmitted from a sink of the device. Embodiments may determine whether string representations of computed operand and return values of numerical or arithmetic operations of the functions of the data flow are included in the collection of sensitive data.
