Patent number: 12355816Abstract: Embodiments are directed to monitoring network traffic using network monitoring computers (NMCs). Anomalous events may be classified based on the monitored network traffic and attack models such that the classification determines that targets of the anomalous events may be currently subject to attacks by entities communicating on the networks. A honeypot trap may be provided in the networks based on the classified events such that the honeypot trap mimics characteristics of the targets. The portions of the network traffic associated with the honeypot trap may be monitored. Characteristics of the attacks may be determined based on the monitored portions of network traffic. Reports that include information based on the characteristics of the attacks may be generated.Type: GrantFiled: September 30, 2024Date of Patent: July 8, 2025Assignee: ExtraHop Networks, Inc.Inventors: Xue Jun Wu, Bhushan Prasad Khanal, Swagat Dasgupta, Changhwan Oh, J.

Publication number: 20240356926Abstract: Embodiments are directed monitoring network traffic using network monitoring computers. Activity associated with a document in a network may be determined based on the network traffic. A profile may be generated based on a summarization of the activity associated with the document such that the profile may be stored in a data store that stores other profiles. Similar profiles may be determined based on a classification of each profile in the data store based on similarities between the profile and the other profiles in the data store. In response to determining similar profiles, locations in the network associated with documents that correspond to the similar profiles may be determined. Locations may be classified based on the activity, the similar profiles and access policies. In response to portions of the locations being classified as inconsistent with the access policies may be reported.Type: ApplicationFiled: December 6, 2023Publication date: October 24, 2024Inventors: Xue Jun Wu, Swagat Dasgupta, Matthew Alexander Schurr

Publication number: 20180248947Abstract: Metered network synchronization techniques are described. A current network connection of a computing device is checked as to whether the current network connection has been identified as a metered network. Access by a synchronization engine of the computing device to communicate via the current network connection to synchronize data of the computing device with another computing device is managed based at least in part on a setting associated with the metered network.Type: ApplicationFiled: April 26, 2018Publication date: August 30, 2018Applicant: Microsoft Technology Licensing, LLCInventors: Varun Ramesh Mani, Haohui Yin, Scott E.
