  • Patent number: 11956338
    Abstract: A computing system may identify packets received by a network device from a host located in a first network and may generate log entries corresponding to the packets received by the network device. The computing system may identify packets transmitted by the network device to a host located in a second network and may generate log entries corresponding to the packets transmitted by the network device. Utilizing the log entries corresponding to the packets received by the network device and the log entries corresponding to the packets transmitted by the network device, the computing system may correlate the packets transmitted by the network device with the packets received by the network device.

  • Publication number: 20240106861
    Abstract: Aspects of the disclosure relate to identity-based DNS-traffic routing and monitoring. A computing platform may establish, using an encrypted DNS process, a secure DNS session by executing an encrypted session handshake with a client device, which may include receiving a security certificate for the encrypted DNS process that identifies a user of the client device. The computing platform may receive an encrypted DNS query request comprising a request for an IP address for a specified domain name. The computing platform may determine, based on the security certificate, an identity of the user. The computing platform may determine, based on the identity of the user, a security policy indicating domain matching criteria and corresponding actions to take on matching domain names. The computing platform may determine a first action corresponding to the domain name, and may send, based on the first action, an encrypted DNS query response.

  • Publication number: 20230421590
    Abstract: A packet-filtering device may receive packet-filtering rules configured to cause the packet-filtering device to identify packets corresponding to network-threat indicators. The packet-filtering device may receive packets and, for each packet, may determine that the packet corresponds to criteria specified by a packet-filtering rule. The criteria may correspond to one or more of the network-threat indicators. The packet-filtering device may apply an operator specified by the packet-filtering rule. The operator may be configured to cause the packet-filtering device to either prevent the packet from continuing toward its destination or allow the packet to continue toward its destination.
