Abstract: A method of and system for encrypting and decrypting data on a computer system is disclosed. In one embodiment, the system comprises an encrypting operating system (EOS), which is a modified UNIX operating system. The EOS is configured to use a symmetric encryption algorithm and an encryption key to encrypt data transferred from physical memory to secondary devices, such as disks, swap devices, network file systems, network buffers, pseudo file systems, or any other structures external to the physical memory and on which can data can be stored. The EOS further uses the symmetric encryption algorithm and the encryption key to decrypt data transferred from the secondary devices back to physical memory. In other embodiments, the EOS adds an extra layer of security by also encrypting the directory structure used to locate the encrypted data.

Abstract: A system that monitors and protects the security of computer networks uses artificial intelligence, including learning algorithms, neural networks and genetic programming, to learn from security events. The invention maintains a knowledge base of security events that updates autonomously in real time. The invention encrypts communications to exchange changes in its knowledge base with separate security systems protecting other computer networks. The invention autonomously alters its security policies in response to ongoing events. The invention tracks network communication traffic from inception at a well-known port throughout the duration of the communication including monitoring of any port the communication is switched to. The invention is able to track and utilize UNIX processes for monitoring, threat detection, and threat response functions.
