  • Protecting computing assets from resource intensive querying attacks
    Patent number: 9407659
    Abstract: A method and system for managing data traffic and protecting computing assets. The method and system includes intercepting queries and messages, such as EDNS0 queries, and sending probe queries and reply queries to the originating computing device to determine whether the originating computing device may be sufficiently validated so as to justify forwarding resource-intensive queries and messages to the targeted computing device.
    Type: Grant
    Filed: April 23, 2014
    Date of Patent: August 2, 2016
    Assignee: Arbor Networks, Inc.
    Inventors: Ellis Roland Dobbins, Alexandru G. Bardas, Marc R. Eisenbarth

  • Inferring a state of behavior through marginal probability estimation
    Patent number: 9032527
    Abstract: Systems, computer-readable media storing instructions, and methods can infer a state of behavior. Such a method can include constructing a graph including nodes representing hosts and domains based on an event dataset. The graph can be seeded with information external to the event dataset. A belief whether each of the nodes is in a particular state of behavior can be calculated based on marginal probability estimation.
