Method And System For Tracking Fraudulent Activity

US Patent:
2006004, Feb 23, 2006
Filed:
Aug 20, 2004
Appl. No.:
10/923064
Inventors:
Quang Pham - Sunnyvale CA, US
Mathew Henley - San Francisco CA, US
Andrew Brown - Mountain View CA, US
Jeremy Edberg - Santa Clara CA, US
International Classification:
G06F 17/60
US Classification:
705050000
Abstract:
A method and system for tracking potentially fraudulent activities associated with one or more web sites is disclosed. The system includes a fraud tracking server connected to a fraud tracking database. The fraud tracking server includes a communications module to facilitate the exchange of data between the server and multiple client devices. The fraud tracking server receives data from one or more client devices that identifies a potential spoof site. The fraud tracking server also includes control logic to generate a spoof site tracking record in the fraud tracking database. The spoof site tracking record includes the data identifying the potential spoof site. After the spoof site tracking record has been created, the fraud tracking server notifies an administrator of the potential spoof site by communicating the data received and stored in the fraud tracking database to an administrator.

Jun 23, 2004
Appl. No.:
10/876134
Inventors:
Chris Lalonde - Campbell CA, US
Quang Pham - Sunnyvale CA, US
Kevin Black - San Jose CA, US
Andrew Brown - Mountain View CA, US
Mathew Henley - Campbell CA, US
Assignee:
eBay Inc. - San Jose CA
International Classification:
H04L 29/14
US Classification:
726 22, 726 23
Abstract:
A method and system to verify active content in a server system include receiving a communication (e. g. , an e-mail message or an e-commerce listing) that includes active content to be made accessible by the server system. A reference (e. g. , a URL) within the active content is identified, the reference pointing to further data that is not included within the communication. This further data is to be retrieved when the active content is rendered. The reference is stored at the server system, and the further data, to which the reference points, is repetitively and periodically retrieved. Subsequent to each retrieval of the further data, a determination is made as to whether the further data is malicious.

G06F 7/04, G08B 23/00
US Classification:
726 3, 726 23
Abstract:
A method and a system, wherein the system comprises a first server operatively coupled to a router, to receive a copy of network traffic processed by the router, a database operatively coupled to the first server, wherein the server records parsed network traffic information onto the database, and a device operatively coupled to the first server to receive alerts regarding possible denial-of-service attacks, the alerts based upon network traffic falling outside a standard deviation range. A method that comprises receiving a data packet from a network, parsing the data packet, storing data in the fields of the data packet into a database, comparing observed data set values with a historical data set values, sending an alert to a device based upon network traffic falling outside a standard deviation range, and updating the historical data set values by averaging the observed data set values with an old historical data set values.

Analog Privacy Scrambler And Scrambling Method

US Patent:
6961431, Nov 1, 2005
Filed:
Feb 28, 2001
Appl. No.:
09/795799
Inventors:
Dennis L. Wilson - Palo Alto CA, US
Julius Lange - Cupertino CA, US
Andrew Brown - Mountain View CA, US
Assignee:
Lockheed Martin Corp. - Bethesda MD
International Classification:
H04L009/00
US Classification:
380275, 380253, 380266
Abstract:
A system and method for maintaining privacy in transmission of a high bandwidth analog signal. A preferred system and method breaks an input signal into bands and then uses Walsh codes to overlay many signals on top of each other with a set of phase modulators to establish scrambling of the input signal. The scrambled signal is then transmitted. The received scrambled signal has the phase modulation removed and an inverse Walsh transform recovers the original bands. The recovered bands are added together to recover the original signal. The system and method use techniques that establish synchronization and phase coherency complete the process.
