  • Patent number: 7815106
    Abstract: A system and method for detecting transaction anomalies and information reflecting potential fraudulent activities is disclosed. Data is collected from transactions carried out in a number of business applications such as computer systems, telecommunication systems and security systems. This transaction data is normalized to generate transaction data having consistent format for analysis and/or comparison. User profiles are generated by sorting the normalized data by user and identifying particular user characteristics from the sorted data. Each user profile therefore reflects the behavior of the user as it relates to the business applications. The user profiles and/or predetermined rules are then used to detect anomalies in incoming transactions.

  • Publication number: 20080004805
    Abstract: Systems and methods for locating sources of, or vulnerabilities susceptible to, computer-originated attacks based on GPS devices. In one aspect, methods and systems include receiving threat data or vulnerability data, retrieving GPS data, correlating the threat data or the vulnerability data with the GPS data to create map data, and generating a map, based on the map data, displaying a geographical location of the source of, or the vulnerability susceptible to, a computer-originated attack based on a GPS device.
