  • Patent number: 11838322
    Abstract: A phishing site detection device extracts, from a phishing kit, a condition of access sources with which the access to a phishing site is blocked. Then, the phishing site detection device accesses a phishing site constructed by the phishing kit using one or more extracted conditions of access sources, and stores an access result for each condition of access sources in an access result storage module. Thereafter, the phishing site detection device sets a condition of access sources with which the access to the phishing site constructed by the phishing kit is blocked, accesses a website to be detected, and determines whether the website is a phishing site on the basis of the access result.

  • Publication number: 20230370498
    Abstract: An inference device 10 converts configuration information of a network and information such as a security log into a predicate of the solution set programming. The inference device 10 obtains, as a solution set, a combination of predicates derived by a derivation rule from predicates obtained by conversion, and predicates not constrained by the constraint rule among predicates obtained by conversion using a method of solution set programming. The predicate of the solution set indicates, for example, whether a node included in the network is a client or a proxy.

  • Publication number: 20220261440
    Abstract: A conversion unit converts directions of edges between vertices in a graph to arguments on a complex plane. A generation unit generates a Hermitian matrix that represents a relationship between vertices in the graph by using the arguments converted by the conversion unit. A calculation unit calculates eigenvectors of the Hermitian matrix generated by the generation unit. A signal processing unit performs graph signal processing such as graph Fourier transform taking the eigenvectors calculated by the calculation unit to be a Fourier basis for a graph Laplacian.
