Authentication method and system

A system and method for identifying infection of unwanted software on an electronic device is disclosed. A software agent configured to generate a bait and is installed on the electronic device. The bait can simulate a situation in which the user performs a login session and submits personal information or it may just contain artificial sensitive information. Parameters may be inserted into the bait such as the identity of the electronic device that the bait is installed upon. The output of the electronic device is monitored and analyzed for attempts of transmitting the bait. The output is analyzed by correlating the output with the bait and can be done by comparing information about the bait with the traffic over a computer network in order to decide about the existence and the location of unwanted software. Furthermore, it is possible to store information about the bait in a database and then compare information about a user with the information in the database in order to determine if the electronic device that transmitted the bait contains unwanted software.

Method and system for protection against information stealing software

In one embodiment, a system for launching a security architecture includes an electronic device comprising a processor and one or more operating systems, a security agent, and a launching module. The launching module comprises a boot manager and a secured launching agent. The boot manager is configured to boot the secured launching agent before booting the operating systems, and the secured launching agent is configured to load a security agent. The security agent is configured to execute at a level below all operating systems of the electronic device, intercept a request to access a resource of the electronic device, the request originating from the operational level of one of one or more operating systems of the electronic device, and determine if a request is indicative of malware. In some embodiments, the secured launching agent may be configured to determine whether the security agent is infected with malware prior to loading the security agent.

System and method for providing a secured operating system execution environment

An asset management system is provided, which includes a hardware module operating as an asset control core. The asset control core generally includes a small hardware core embedded in a target system on chip that establishes a hardware-based point of trust on the silicon die. The asset control core can be used as a root of trust on a consumer device by having features that make it difficult to tamper with. The asset control core is able to generate a unique identifier for one device and participate in the tracking and provisioning of the device through a secure communication channel with an appliance. The appliance generally includes a secure module that caches and distributes provisioning data to one of many agents that connect to the asset control core, e.g. on a manufacturing line or in an after-market programming session.

System and method for hardware based security

Devices are pre-deployed with an app security mechanism to ensure that apps that are downloaded onto the device do not cause data loss, data leakage, or other harm to the device. A user can start using the device and downloading apps in a conventional or typical manner and be assured that security measures are being taken to minimize potential harm for unsecured and secured apps. An app security enforcement layer or engine operates with, for example, a Type 2 hypervisor on the device, and ensures that any calls by the apps to the operating system of the device are generally safe. Measures such as enhancing or modifying the call, obfuscating the call, or terminating the app may be taken to protect the operating system. These actions are taken based on a policy that may be either interpreted or compiled by the enforcement engine with respect to app execution. The security measures are generally transparent to the user of the device.

Secure execution of unsecured apps on a device

Method for protecting computer software by detecting an attack of an intruding program interfering with the execution of said protected software on a computer system with a processor and at least a processor memory, wherein the computer software to be protected communicates with a license container containing a license for using and executing the protected computer software and containing at least one cryptographic key, wherein the license container provides licenses and cryptographic keys for the protected software to protect its usage and its integrity, and wherein the protected computer software is at least partly encrypted and uses the associated cryptographic keys to decrypt said protected software for executing comprises the following steps: during execution of the protected software, analyzing the behavior of the protected software and/or the execution environment of the protected software on the computer system, and searching for patterns of an intrusion or an intruding program, detecting an intrusion into the protected software during the execution of the protected software, wherein the intruding program uses a monitoring component for gaining unauthorized access, and creating a signal on detection of an attack.

Method and system for intrusion detection

The invention relates to a method for protecting a computer program from being influenced by an invasive program or by manipulation software for manipulating computer programs on a computer system comprising a processor, a main storage unit, and a storage medium. The method involves the Kerckhoffs's principle such that the protected computer program is freely accessible and can be read by an invasive program or manipulation software. Parts of the protected computer program are provided multiple times in the program code of the protected computer program as a result of the specialization of the computer program. Parts of the computer program are encrypted in order to prevent a statistical analysis of the computer program without the processor running the computer program, wherein a key which is required to decrypt the encrypted parts of the computer program is stored in a protected key storage unit which communicates with the computer.

Method for protecting a computer program from being influenced, and computer system

L'invention concerne un procede pour proteger un logiciel informatique en detectant une attaque d'un programme d'intrusion interferant avec l'execution dudit logiciel protege sur un systeme informatique avec un processeur et au moins une memoire de processeur, le logiciel informatique a proteger communiquant avec un conteneur de licence contenant une licence pour utiliser et executer le logiciel informatique protege et contenant au moins une cle cryptographique, le conteneur de licence produisant des licences et des cles cryptographiques pour le logiciel protege afin de proteger son utilisation et son integrite, et le logiciel informatique protege etant au moins partiellement crypte et utilisant les cles cryptographiques associees pour decrypter ledit logiciel protege pour l'execution, comprenant les etapes suivantes : pendant l'execution du logiciel protege, analyse du fonctionnement du logiciel protege et/ou de l'environnement d'execution du logiciel protege sur le systeme informatique, et recherche des formes d'une intrusion ou d'un programme d'intrusion, detection d'une intrusion dans le logiciel protege pendant l'execution du logiciel protege, le programme d'intrusion utilisant un composant de surveillance pour obtenir un acces non autorise, et creation d'un signal lors de la detection d'une attaque.

Method for intrusion detection

Verfahren zum Schutz eines Computerprogramms gegen Beeinflussung durch ein Eindringprogramm oder durch eine Manipulationssoftware zur Manipulation von Computerprogrammen auf einem Computersystem mit einem Prozessor, einem Hauptspeicher und einem Speichermedium. Das Verfahren beruht auf dem Kerckhoffschen Prinzip. Teile des Computerprogramms sind verschlusselt, um eine statische Analyse des Computerprogramms ohne eine Ausfuhrung des Computerprogramms durch den Prozessor zu verhindern, wobei ein zur Entschlusselung des verschlusselten Teils des Computerprogramms notwendiger Schlussel in einem sicheren Schlusselspeicher, der mit dem Computer kommuniziert, abgelegt ist.
