A method in one example implementation includes intercepting a network access attempt on a computing device and determining a software program file associated with the network access attempt. The method also includes evaluating a first criterion to determine whether the network access attempt is permitted and blocking the network access attempt if it is not permitted. The first criterion includes a trust status of the software program file. In specific embodiments, the trust status is defined as trusted if the software program file is included in a whitelist of trustworthy program files and untrusted if the software program file is not included in a whitelist. In more specific embodiments, the method includes blocking the network access attempt if the software program file has an untrusted status. In further embodiments, an event is logged if the software program file associated with the network access attempt has an untrusted status.

System and method for local protection against malicious software

A method is provided in one example embodiment and includes exchanging a session descriptor associated with a network connection and an application on a host, correlating the session descriptor with a network policy, and applying the network policy to the network connection. In alternative embodiments, the session descriptor may be exchanged through an out-of-band communication channel or an in-band communication channel.

A financial-service system that manages content objects includes a chronicles platform with a chronicle associated with a loan request. A content manager determines a set of content objects to be associated with the chronicle and generates a bucket for each content object of the set of content objects. Each bucket is associated with a name and is configured to receive an associated content object. The chronicle is populated with the generated buckets. An interface that detects a user action and that thereafter receives or generates a content object, which is detected by the content manager and associated with a bucket. The content manager causes the bucket to receive the content object and presents representations of the buckets to a user. Representations of one or more buckets that have received a content object differ from representations of one or more other buckets that have not received a content object.

Embodiments are configured to receive metadata of a process intercepted on an end host when attempting to access a network. The metadata includes a hash of an application associated with the process and an endpoint reputation score of the application. Embodiments are configured to request a threat intelligence reputation score based on the hash of the application, to determine an action to be taken by the end host based, at least in part, on one or more policies and at least one of the threat intelligence reputation score and the endpoint reputation score, and to send a response indicating the action to be taken by the end host. Further embodiments request another threat intelligence reputation score based on another hash of a dynamic link library module loaded by the process on the end host, and the action is determined based, at least in part, on the other threat intelligence score.

Agent assisted malicious application blocking in a network environment

A method is described to maintain (including generate) an inventory of a system of a plurality of containers accessible by a computer system. At least one container is considered to determine whether the container is executable in at least one of a plurality of execution environments characterizing the computer system. Each execution environment is in the group comprising a native binary execution environment configured to execute native machine language instructions and a non-native execution environment configured to execute at least one program to process non-native machine language instructions to yield native machine language instructions. The inventory is maintained based on a result of the considering step. The inventory may be used to exercise control over what executables are allowed to execute on the computer system.

Execution environment file inventory

Embodiments are described for a system and method of controlling access to information in an organization by defining a hierarchical organizational structure of boxes, and security configuration comprising user records, security roles, rules to map users to boxes, and rules to grant roles to users via mapped boxes. Access control is applied in the context of a defined organizational structure using the effective set of access control policies computed in real time per each data access request from any given user.
