Patent number: 11750652Abstract: A method, computer program product and system for generating false data for suspicious users. A suspicious user is identified. Actions of the user are then tracked. The user attempting to access sensitive information is detected. Relevant false sensitive information corresponding to the sensitive information is then detected. The relevant false sensitive information is then mapped to the sensitive information. The relevant false sensitive information is provided to the suspicious user. In response to user input, at least one command is executed, where the at least one command includes the relevant false sensitive information and not the sensitive information.Type: GrantFiled: December 20, 2020Date of Patent: September 5, 2023Assignee: International Business Machines CorporationInventors: Shlomit Avrahami, Yoav Ben-Yair, Gil Fuchs, Itai Gordon, Ilan D.

Patent number: 11188667Abstract: A method, computer program product and system for preventing unauthorized access of confidential information. The transmission of data from a first user to a second user is detected. An authorization level corresponding to the second user is then determined. Furthermore, a probability that the authorization level corresponding to the second user and the data is accurate is generated. Additionally, a determination is made that the data includes sensitive information that the second user is not authorized to access based on the authorization level. Moreover, the data can be modified based on the probability, where the data is to be redacted if the probability is within a range of a threshold value or the data is to be blocked from transmission if the probability is above the range.Type: GrantFiled: August 29, 2019Date of Patent: November 30, 2021Assignee: International Business Machines CorporationInventors: Yoav Ben-Yair, Gil Fuchs, Itai Gordon, Ilan D.

Patent number: 11062004Abstract: A computer-implemented method is provided. The method may include determining a behavioral pattern of a user based on historical data access events and historical data access conditions corresponding to the historical data access events, wherein the data access events are associated with a computer enterprise system. A data access request from the user with respect to a secure resource may be received from a computing node connected to the computer enterprise system. A behavioral state of the user may be determined with respect to the data access request and data access conditions corresponding to the data access request. A discrepancy between the behavioral pattern and the behavioral state of the user may be detected. A security risk level may be determined based on the discrepancy. In response to determining that the security risk level exceeds a predetermined threshold, a security action may be performed with respect to the secure resource.Type: GrantFiled: April 30, 2018Date of Patent: July 13, 2021Assignee: International Business Machines CorporationInventors: Itai Gordon, Gil Fuchs, Ilan D.

Patent number: 10891391Abstract: Disclosed embodiments provide techniques for accessing a document from a cloud storage system and controlling the display of sensitive data within the document based on user permissions. One or more restricted information segments are identified within a document to be stored on the cloud storage system. Restricted information segments can include anything within an electronic file for which it is desired to provide multiple levels of access. In some embodiments, the restricted information segments are automatically identified via computer-implemented natural language processing (NLP) techniques. For each restricted information segment, one or more alternative data sequences are generated. The alternative data sequences are encrypted using various keys residing on a client device associated with a user. The keys can be used to decrypt data stored within a multiple-value encrypted field structure.Type: GrantFiled: August 29, 2018Date of Patent: January 12, 2021Assignee: International Business Machines CorporationInventors: Itai Gordon, Miriam Nizri, Ilan D.

Patent number: 10810316Abstract: An example system includes a processor to monitor a data asset and associated access policies to be synchronized to detect a trigger. The processor is to also request and receive data lineage information on the monitored data asset in response to detecting the trigger. The processor is to further detect a source system and a target system based on the data lineage information. The processor is also to query an access policy of the source system and an access policy of the target system. The processor is to merge the access policy of the source system and the access policy of the target system based on a predetermined merger configuration to generate a merged access policy. The processor is to update a monitoring system based on the merged access policy.Type: GrantFiled: May 15, 2017Date of Patent: October 20, 2020Assignee: International Business Machines CorporationInventors: Itai Gordon, Shlomit Avrahami, Ilan D.
