  • Identifying data usage via active data
    Patent number: 10187428
    Abstract: Disclosed are various embodiments for active data that tracks usage. The active data includes instructions that are executable by a computing device. The computing device is scanned to identify characteristics of the computing device. The characteristics of the computing device are utilized to determine whether the usage of the active data is authorized. Data is transmitted to a network service, including identifying information for the particular computing device and data that identifies a deployment of the active data.
    Type: Grant
    Filed: June 9, 2017
    Date of Patent: January 22, 2019
    Assignee: Amazon Technologies, Inc.
    Inventors: Harsha Ramalingam, Dominique Imjya Brezinski, Jesper Mikael Johansson, Jon Arron McClintock, James Connelly Petts
  • Adapting decoy data present in a network
    Patent number: 9990507
    Abstract: Disclosed are various embodiments for obtaining policy data specifying decoy data eligible to be inserted within a response to an access of a data store. The decoy data is detected in the response among a plurality of non-decoy data based at least upon the policy data. An action associated with the decoy data is initiated in response to the access of the data store meeting a configurable threshold.

  • Identifying data usage via active data
    Patent number: 9705920
    Abstract: Disclosed are various embodiments for active data, such as active decoy data. The active decoy data includes instructions that, when executed by a particular device, cause the particular computing device to determine whether the particular computing device is a target computing device. The particular computing device initiates a predefined action in response to determining that the particular computing device is not the target computing device. The approaches described herein may also be useful in wrapping and distributing digital content.
