Patent number: 11470108Abstract: Introduced here are computer programs and computer-implemented techniques for detecting instances of external fraud by monitoring digital activities that are performed with accounts associated with an enterprise. A threat detection platform may determine the likelihood that an incoming email is indicative of external fraud based on the context and content of the incoming email. For example, to understand the risk posed by an incoming email, the threat detection platform may seek to determine not only whether the sender normally communicates with the recipient, but also whether the topic is one normally discussed by the sender and recipient. In this way, the threat detection platform can establish whether the incoming email deviates from past emails exchanged between the sender and recipient.Type: GrantFiled: April 23, 2021Date of Patent: October 11, 2022Assignee: Abnormal Security CorporationInventors: Yu Zhou Lee, Lawrence Stockton Moore, Jeshua Alexis Bratman, Lei Xu, Sanjay Jeyakumar

Publication number: 20220278997Abstract: Conventional email filtering services are not suitable for recognizing sophisticated malicious emails, and therefore may allow sophisticated malicious emails to reach inboxes by mistake. Introduced here are threat detection platforms designed to take an integrative approach to detecting security threats. For example, after receiving input indicative of an approval from an individual to access past email received by employees of an enterprise, a threat detection platform can download past emails to build a machine learning (ML) model that understands the norms of communication with internal contacts (e.g., other employees) and/or external contacts (e.g., vendors). By applying the ML model to incoming email, the threat detection platform can identify security threats in real time in a targeted manner.Type: ApplicationFiled: February 22, 2022Publication date: September 1, 2022Inventors: Sanjay Jeyakumar, Jeshua Alexis Bratman, Dmitry Chechik, Abhijit Bagri, Evan Reiser, Sanny Xiao Lang Liao, Yu Zhou Lee, Carlos Daniel Gasperi, Kevin Lau, Kai Jiang, Su Li Debbie Tan, Jeremy Kao, Cheng-Lin Yeh

Publication number: 20220188411Abstract: Deriving and surfacing insights regarding security threats is disclosed. A plurality of features associated with a message is determined. A plurality of facet models is used to analyze the determined features. Based at least in part on the analysis, it is determined that the message poses a security threat. A prioritized set of information is determined to be provided as output that is representative of why the message was determined to pose a security threat. At least a portion of the prioritized set of information is provided as output.Type: ApplicationFiled: December 9, 2021Publication date: June 16, 2022Inventors: Yu Zhou Lee, Kai Jiang, Su Li Debbie Tan, Geng Sng, Cheng-Lin Yeh, Lawrence Stockton Moore, Sanny Xiao Lang Liao, Joey Esteban Cerquera, Jeshua Alexis Bratman, Sanjay Jeyakumar, Nishant Bhalchandra Karandikar

Publication number: 20210374679Abstract: Introduced here are computer programs and computer-implemented techniques for generating and then managing a federated database that can be used to ascertain the risk in interacting with vendors. At a high level, the federated database allows knowledge regarding the reputation of vendors to be shared amongst different enterprises with which those vendors may interact. A threat detection platform may utilize the federated database when determining how to handle incoming emails from vendors.Type: ApplicationFiled: August 12, 2021Publication date: December 2, 2021Inventors: Jeshua Alexis Bratman, Yu Zhou Lee, Lawrence Stockton Moore, Rami Faris Habal, Lei Xu
