Comprehensible threat detection
Techniques for combining threat-related events associated with different modalities to provide a complete insight into cyber attack life cycles. The techniques may include receiving telemetry data associated with one or more modalities and detecting, based at least in part on the telemetry data, one or more abnormal events associated with security incidents. The one or more abnormal events may include at least a first abnormal event associated with a first modality and a second abnormal event associated with a second modality. The techniques may also include determining that an entity associated with the abnormal events is a same entity and, based at least in part on the entity comprising the same entity, determining that a correlation between the abnormal events is indicative of a security incident. Based at least in part on the correlation, an indication associated with the security incident may be output.
Improvements in and Relating to Network Communications
Providing authentication servers (e.g. a RADIUS server) combined with a distributed data store (e.g. a memory cache) for storing a time-limited trust relationship message to establish/enable a time-limited trust between the authentication servers during network roaming of a user device. This circumvents the need for the traditional method of synchronous authentication messaging sequences, permitting transmission of authentication messaging sequences in a more time-efficient asynchronous manner.
Range determining module and associated methods and apparatus
The disclosure relates to range-determining-module for a transceiver, configured to: receive a signal comprising a received-data-packet, identify a plurality of known-sequence-sections of the received-data-packet, each known-sequence-section containing a known-data-sequence that is known to the range-determining-module; determine a reception-time-stamp associated with each of the plurality of known-sequence-sections; verify the received-data-packet using the reception-time-stamps associated with different respective known-sequence-sections of the received-data-packet; and provide a verified range estimate in accordance with one or more of the time stamps of the verified received-data-packet.
SINGLE AUTHENTICATION PORTAL FOR DIVERSE INDUSTRIAL NETWORK PROTOCOLS ACROSS MULTIPLE OSI LAYERS
In an embodiment, a computer-implemented method comprises, receiving an authentication request from a first computing device; in response to receiving the authentication request from the first computing device, performing one or more authentication services on behalf of a second computing device using identity information that is stored in a first data repository; generating, based on data from an access control list maintained at the second computing device, a list of one or more third computing devices; receiving a request from the first computing device to access a third computing device in the list of one or more third computing devices; generating service identity information for authenticating to the third computing device and storing the service identity information in a second data repository; and performing one or more authentication services on behalf of the first computing device using the service identity information that is stored in the second data repository.
SYSTEM AND METHOD FOR PROVIDING QUALITY OF SERVICE DURING TRANSPORT KEY ROTATION AT A DISTRIBUTED MANAGEMENT CONTROLLER GROUP
Methods and systems for providing quality of service to an information handling system may involve generating a new transport encryption key for a management controller group, notifying nodes in the management controller group to negotiate for the new transport encryption key, and encrypting a first message to be sent to a first node in the management controller group using a current transport encryption key. The new transport encryption key for encrypted communications in the management controller group and to replace a current transport encryption key. The first message encrypted after notifying the nodes in the management controller group to negotiate for the new transport encryption key. The nodes of the management controller group including the first node.
SYSTEM AND METHOD FOR PREVENTING WELL BEHAVING CLIENTS FROM CAUSING ACCOUNT LOCKOUTS IN A GROUP
Methods and systems for account authentication in a distributed computing node group may involve sending a message to a member, the message having a first timestamp, increasing an authentication failure count, receiving a first key-exchange message from the member, the first key-exchange message having a second timestamp, evaluating the second timestamp, and determining whether to ignore the first key-exchange message based on an evaluation of the second timestamp. The first timestamp may be associated with a message received from the member prior to sending the message with the first timestamp to the member. The first key-exchange message may include a value computed by the member based on a group passcode shared with the member. The evaluation of the second timestamp may be based on at least one of a default value, the authentication failure count, or a timestamp associated with the group passcode.
Time signal manipulation and spoofing detection based on a latency of a communication system
This disclosure relates to detecting manipulation or spoofing of a time based on a latency of a communication system. In one embodiment, a system includes a time input to receive a time signal. The system includes a first interface to receive a first representation of a first condition at a first location at a first time and a second interface to receive a second representation of a second condition at a second location and at the first time. A latency determination subsystem may determine a latency based on a comparison of the time of arrival of the second measurement and the first time. A threshold subsystem may generate an indication of whether the latency satisfies a threshold. An anomalous condition subsystem may identify an anomalous condition based on the indication, and a remedial action may be implemented based on the anomalous condition.
Security policy for HTTPS using DNS
In one embodiment, a browser operating on a host device receives, from a user, a request to access a web server that includes a Uniform Resource Locator (URL) associated with the web server. In response, the browser sends, to a Domain Name System (DNS) server, a request for an Internet Protocol (IP) address correlated with the domain hosting the URL, and receives, from the DNS server, a response that comprises a block policy IP address and an appropriate error code. Based on this IP address and the error code indicated in the response, the browser renders an access denied page indicating that access to the web server associated with the URL is not permitted, wherein at least a portion of the access denied page is stored in memory accessible to the browser prior to sending the request for the IP address correlated with the domain that is hosting the URL.
SYSTEMS AND METHODS FOR ONLINE FRAUD DETECTION
Systems and methods for preventing fraud are disclosed. The system includes, for example, a front end device that is operatively coupled to a back end device. The front end device is configured to generate a first dynamic device identification based on dynamic device characteristics of the front end device. The back end device is configured to generate a second dynamic device identification based on the dynamic device characteristics of the front end device to authenticate the front end device. The front end device can also authenticate itself through an Internet of Things (IoT) device that has a trusted connection to the back end device.
COMMUNICATION DEVICE, COMMUNICATION METHOD, AND COMMUNICATION SYSTEM
A communication device is a communication device connected to a mobility network which is a network mounted in a mobility and which is used by a plurality of electronic control devices for communication. The communication device includes: a holding unit which holds range information indicating a transferable path range determined for a message on the mobility network; a receiving unit which receives the message on the mobility network; and a determining unit which determines validity of the received message by using the range information.
