  • Patent number: 8904527
    Abstract: A centralized security management system (CSMS) is provided to monitor a network to detect and mitigate attacks in or to the network. The CSMS includes a variety of devices located throughout the network to collect and synthesize data collected or obtained from devices operating in the network. The collected data is analyzed using behavioral engines or other software algorithms to develop trends for a normal and abnormal operating condition. The abnormal operating conditions are analyzed further to determine attacks to the devices or the network. Based on the attacks, a mitigation scheme is implemented to remove or reduce the attacks.
    Type: Grant

  • Patent number: 8060086
    Abstract: A method and apparatus for processing mobile-IP registration messages. Upon receipt of a mobile-IP registration request (RRQ) message that designates a care-of address matching the mobile-IP home agent's IP address, the RRQ would be dropped. Alternatively, before deciding to drop such an RRQ, the invention may further involve determining whether the home agent is currently functioning as a foreign agent for the requesting mobile node, which would justify the care-of address matching the home agent's IP address. If the home agent is not currently functioning as a foreign agent for the mobile node, then the RRQ would be dropped. On the other hand, if the home agent is currently functioning as a foreign agent for the mobile node, then RRQ processing would proceed as normal.
