  • Patent number: 11722513
    Abstract: A measure of influence of a sender entity is determined for a message receiving entity based at least in part on an analysis of previous electronic messages sent by the sender entity. An electronic message associated with the sender entity is received. The measure of influence of the sender entity is utilized to determine a security risk associated with the received electronic message.

  • Publication number: 20220078197
    Abstract: Information of an electronic message to be delivered to an intended recipient is received. For an original resource identifier included in the electronic message, a corresponding alternative resource identifier that can be at least in part used to obtain the original resource identifier and obtain context information associated with the electronic message is determined. The original resource identifier included in the electronic message is replaced with the alternative resource identifier to generate a modified electronic message. The modified electronic message with the alternative resource identifier is allowed to be delivered to the intended recipient instead of the electronic message with the original resource identifier. A request made using the alternative resource identifier in the modified message triggers a security action based at least in part on the context information associated with the electronic message.

  • Patent number: 11102244
    Abstract: In one example, intelligence is gathered about an attacker that is attempting an attack via a malicious exploit message by exploiting the attacker's belief that the attack is succeeding. A received message (e.g., malicious message) sent from a first message account (e.g., attacker) to a second message account (e.g., intended victim) is received. A security risk associated with the received message is determined. It is determined that the security risk associated with the received message meets one or more criteria. Based on the determination that the security risk associated with the received message meets the one or more criteria, a responsive message is sent in response to the received message from a third message account (e.g., security service) to the first message account. The responsive message includes a content reference identified as referring to a content for a user of the first message account.

  • Patent number: 10880322
    Abstract: Information of an electronic message to be delivered to an intended recipient is received. For an original resource identifier included in the electronic message, a corresponding alternative resource identifier that can be at least in part used to obtain the original resource identifier is determined. The original resource identifier included in the electronic message is replaced with the corresponding alternative resource identifier to generate a modified electronic message. The modified electronic message with the alternative resource identifier is allowed to be delivered to the intended recipient instead of the electronic message with the original resource identifier. An interaction associated with the original resource identifier is tracked using the alternative resource identifier.
