  • Patent number: 10264001
    Abstract: Methods, systems, and techniques for network resource attack detection using a client identifier. A server receives from a device the client identifier and user credentials. The client identifier and user credentials are assessed to determine their authenticity. If one or both of the credentials and identifier are inauthentic, the device does not learn from the server which of the identifier and credentials have been found to be inauthentic. When at least one of the identifier and credentials are inauthentic, the device that sent them is assessed to determine whether it is an attacker of the network resource. If the device is determined to be an attacker, one or both of prophylactic and remedial action is taken in response.
    Type: Grant

  • Patent number: 7930413
    Abstract: A method and system that identifies connection attempts to a resource through the IP address used in the connection and compares the IP address against one or more of single or multiple lists of IP addresses simultaneously to affect the connection process. The result of the comparison against the list is used to either block or allow access to the resource or to perform some other action based on the presence of the connecting IP Address on said list(s). The lists are retrieved in native format from one or more sources and compiled into a format allowing high speed comparisons or lookups against the list. The lists may be blacklists containing known addresses that have performed offensive actions or whitelists containing known safe or vetted IP addresses, or other lists used to determine the course of intended action.
