Protecting computer users from online frauds

Protecting computer users from online frauds, such as phishing and pharming. A client computer may include a page signature extractor and a policy enforcer. The page signature extractor may encode a web page to generate its signature, which may be provided to a remote server computer for comparison with signatures of phishing pages. The client computer and the server computer may communicate using the DNS protocol. The policy enforcer may perform one or more predetermined actions when a match is found. Examples of such actions include replacing the web page with a blocking page, displaying a warning message, or both. The policy enforcer may be configured to determine if the web page is part of a phishing or pharming attack by comparing the URL of the web page to URLs of legitimate web pages.

Secure web site authentication using web site characteristics, secure user credentials and private browser

A secure authentication process detects and prevents phishing and pharming attacks for specific web sites. The process is based on a dedicated secure hardware store for user sign-in credentials, a database of information about specific web sites, and a private secure browser. All user web activity is monitored by an agent program. The agent program checks to make sure that user attempts to send any sign-in credentials stored in secure hardware store of user sign-in credentials, to any web site accessed by the user, is allowed only if the IP address of the web site accessed by the user matches at least one of the IP addresses stored web site database associated with the sign-in credential the user is attempting to send. The process also detects mismatches between a URL and the actual IP address of the web site associated with the URL.

Method and apparatus for analyzing one or more firewalls

A method and apparatus are disclosed for analyzing the operation of one or more network gateways, such as firewalls or routers, that perform a packet filtering function in a network environment. Given a user query, the disclosed firewall analysis tool simulates the behavior of the various firewalls, taking into account the topology of the network environment, and determines which portions of the services or machines specified in the original query would manage to reach from the source to the destination. The relevant packet-filtering configuration files are collected and an internal representation of the implied security policy is derived. A graph data structure is used to represent the network topology. A gateway-zone graph permits the firewall analysis tool to determine where given packets will travel in the network, and which gateways will be encountered along those paths. In this manner, the firewall analysis tool can evaluate a query object against each rule-base object, for each gateway node in the gateway-zone graph that is encountered along each path between the source and destination. A graphical user interface is provided for receiving queries, such as whether one or more given services are permitted between one or more given machines, and providing results. A spoofing attack can be simulated by allowing the user to specify where packets are to be injected into the network, which may not be the true location of the source host-group.

Approach for securing distributed deduplication software

The various embodiments of the present invention include techniques for securing the use of data deduplication activities occurring in a source-deduplicating storage management system. These techniques are intended to prevent fake data backup, target data contamination, and data spoofing attacks initiated by a source. In one embodiment, one technique includes limiting chunk querying to authorized users. Another technique provides detection of attacks and unauthorized access to keys within the target system. Additional techniques include the combination of validating the existence of data from the source by validating the data chunk, validating a data sample of the data chunk, or validating a hash value of the data chunk. A further embodiment involves the use of policies to provide authorization levels for chunk sharing and linking within the target.

System for detecting change of name-to-IP resolution

Detection for pharming attacks and specifically for changes in name-to-IP resolutions on a computer system using rules is described. The DNS settings and the Hosts file on a computer system are monitored and their modification information is saved as a part of the historical data over time. When an IP address is determined for a host name, various rules are applied to the IP address in connection with the saved historical data, such that each rule produces a score based on various criteria. Different rules may have different weights assigned to their scores. The scores of all the rules are summed up to produce a final score. If the final score is above a predefined value, then there is a suspicious change in the IP address, and an alert is sent. Otherwise, the host name and the IP address are saved as a part of the historical data.

Security control method of event-driven network control system under multi-network attack

The invention provides a security control method of an event-driven network control system under a multi-network attack. Considering the network transmission security problem, a random network spoofing attack, a replay attack and a DoS attack are sequentially introduced, and a system closed-loop model under the multi-network attack is established. Further considering the constraint of the limitednetwork bandwidth, an event trigger mechanism is introduced to screen and release sampling data meeting a preset event trigger condition to the network for transmission, thereby establishing a new switching system model on the basis of the system closed-loop model. Based on a switching system model, a Lyapunov stability theory is utilized to obtain a sufficiency condition for enabling the system to meet the stability of a mean square index, and a group of linear matrix inequalities is solved to obtain the gain of the state feedback controller. Compared with an existing controller design method, safe and stable operation of the network control system under the influence of multi-network attacks is guaranteed, meanwhile, the data transmission frequency is reduced, and limited network bandwidth resources are saved.

Method and apparatus for defending against arp spoofing attacks

A method and an apparatus for defending against Address Resolution Protocol (ARP) spoofing attacks are disclosed. The method includes: when an ARP entry is updatable, judging whether the MAC address of a received ARP message is the same as the MAC address in the ARP entry, where the ARP message has the same Internet Protocol (IP) address as the ARP entry; if the MAC addresses are different, determining the received ARP message as an ambiguous ARP message and starting an ARP verification process, or else starting no ARP verification. In this way, when no address spoofing attacks occur, no verification messages are generated, and thus reducing signaling interactions and saving network resources; besides, spooling attacks possibly happening at any time are avoided, which effectively prevents address spoofing attacks via random scanning and protects the normal application of the real host.
