  • Publication number: 20230403299
    Abstract: The present disclosure is directed to preventing computer data from being usurped and exploited by individuals or organizations with nefarious intent. Methods and systems consistent with the present disclosure may store keys and keying data for each of a plurality of connections in separate memory locations. These memory locations may store data that maps a virtual address to a physical memory address associated with storing information relating to a secure connection. These separate memory locations may have a unique instance for each individual communication connection session, for example each transport layer security (TLS) connection may be assigned memory via logical addresses that are mapped to one or more physical memory addresses on a per-core basis. Such architectures decouple actual physical addresses that are used in conventional architectures that assign a single large continuous physical memory partition that may be accessed via commands that access physical memory addresses directly.

  • Publication number: 20210136057
    Abstract: Methods and apparatus consistent with the present disclosure may prevent a computer process from failing when a firewall located between a client device and a server identifies that a process at the firewall should be bypassed using fingerprint information associated with a connection attempt. When fingerprint information stored at a firewall matches previously received fingerprint information, the firewall may allow processes typically performed at the firewall to be bypassed, thereby, allowing communications to pass between the client device and the server without inspection. When that fingerprint information does not match previously received fingerprint information, the firewall may perform a process that causes the client device to fail the first connection attempt. Because of this, methods consistent with the present disclosure may allow communications from an application program to be passed through a firewall without relying on an ever growing list of trusted application programs.

  • Publication number: 20180278580
    Abstract: The present invention provides the initiation of a transport layer security (TLS) session between a client device and a server using a firewall without interruption. The present invention holds a TLS hello message received from the client device until after the server has been validated. A firewall consistent with the present invention does not interrupt a transport layer control (TCP) connection that was established between the client device and the firewall before the TLS hello message was received by the firewall.
