Abstract: Data is received that includes a plurality of samples that each characterize interception of data traffic to a computing device over a network. Thereafter, the plurality of samples characterizing the interception of data traffic are grouped into a plurality of clusters. At least a portion of the samples are labeled to characterize a likelihood of each such sample as relating to an unauthorized interception of data traffic. Each cluster is assigned with a label corresponding to a majority of samples within such cluster. At least one machine learning model is trained using the assigned labeled clusters such that, once trained, the at least one machine learning model determines a likelihood of future samples as relating to an unauthorized interception of data traffic to a corresponding computing device.

Abstract: A first node of a networked computing environment initiates each of a plurality of different types of man-in-the middle (MITM) detection tests to determine whether communications between first and second nodes of a computing network are likely to have been subject to an interception or an attempted interception by a third node. Thereafter, it is determined, by the first node, that at least one of the tests indicate that the communications are likely to have been intercepted by a third node. Data is then provided, by the first node, data that characterizes the determination. In some cases, one or more of the MITM detection tests utilizes a machine learning model.

Abstract: Determining, by a machine learning model in an isolated operating environment, whether a file is safe for processing by a primary operating environment. The file is provided, when the determining indicates the file is safe for processing, to the primary operating environment for processing by the primary operating environment. When the determining indicates the file is unsafe for processing, the file is prevented from being processed by the primary operating environment. The isolated operating environment can be maintained on an isolated computing system remote from a primary computing system maintaining the primary operating system. The isolating computing system and the primary operating system can communicate over a cloud network.
