Patent number: 12432260Abstract: Techniques for inspecting encrypted network communications are presented. The techniques include: intercepting a binary file sent from a resource server to a host computer, where the binary file is configured to facilitate communications between the host computer and a remote server computer; identifying a trust anchor, where the trust anchor is configured to authenticate the remote server computer; replacing the trust anchor in the binary file with a replacement trust anchor, to produce an altered binary file; storing the trust anchor in association with the replacement trust anchor, an identifier of the binary file, and an identifier of the host computer; and passing the altered binary file to the host computer, where the host computer receives the altered binary file instead of the binary file, and where the replacement trust anchor is usable by the host computer to authenticate information in a communication sent by the remote server computer.Type: GrantFiled: April 28, 2025Date of Patent: September 30, 2025Assignee: PACKET FORENSICS, LLCInventors: Ian Macleod, Donald McCarthy, Victor Oppleman
