  • Publication number: 20220103582
    Abstract: A method for threat detection and automatic mitigated response to IP & DDOS born Cyber Security events and Threats. The Disclosed system can provide autonomous system numbers (ASNs) to prevent several network-born cyber threats. These ASN can be distributed to devices on a network along with IP addresses. Disclosed are an ASN record that can be incorporated into Global DNS Servers and systems and can store the IP Address and Private and Public ASN numbers. Also, the disclosed system and method can also provide anomaly detection techniques based on the ASN and Geolocation Proximity.

  • Publication number: 20210392162
    Abstract: A method for identifying a source of network attack by proving an autonomous system number record (ASN record) that includes an IP address, a public autonomous system number (public ASN), and a private autonomous system number (private ASN). The public ASN and the private ASNs can be unique randomly generated combination of numbers. The IP address and the public ASN can be incorporated in the network packets for tracking a route of the network packets in a network.
