  • Patent number: 11552802
    Abstract: A server computing system generates a universally unique identifier (UUID) associated with a first application, the UUID to be encrypted using a private key associated with the first application to generate a first digital signature. The server computing system generates a first session key associated with the first application, the first digital signature to be encrypted using the first session key to generate a first encrypted digital signature. The server computing system encrypts the first session key using a public key associated with a second application to generate a first encrypted session key, wherein the first application and the second application are deployed with the PaaS associated with the server computing system. The server computing system transmits the UUID, the first encrypted digital signature, and the first encrypted session key to the second application using hypertext transfer protocol (HTTP) to enable the second application to authenticate the first application.

  • Publication number: 20210342402
    Abstract: A method is provided for generating regular expressions. In some embodiments, the method includes partitioning a first plurality of text strings into a plurality of substrings, each text string of the first plurality being malignant or benign. The method also includes generating a population list including a second plurality of text strings, each text string of the second plurality including at least one token. The method further includes creating subsequent iterations of the population list. Each iteration may include calculating a score for one or more text strings in the population list and removing one or more text strings from the population list. The method further includes in response to a determination to not update the population list, selecting, based on the one or more calculated scores, a third text string as a regular expression from a final iteration of the population list.
