| 20090232391 | Identifying Image Type in a Capture System - Visual objects can be classified according to image type. In one embodiment, the present invention includes capturing a visual object, and decompressing the visual object to a colorspace representation exposing each pixel. The contribution of each pixel to a plurality of image types can then be determined. Then, the contributions can be combined, and the image type of the visual object can be determined based on the contributions. | 09-17-2009 |
| 20100185622 | Attributes of Captured Objects in a Capture System - Regular expressions used for searching for patterns in captured objects can be grouped into attributes. Such attributes can be associated with captured objects using tags stored in a database. In one embodiment, the present invention includes capturing an object being transmitted over a network, and determining that a regular expression appears in the object, the regular expression belonging to a group of one or more regular expressions associated with an attribute. If a regular expression associated with the attribute is found in the object, then an attribute field of a tag containing metadata related to the captured object is set to indicate the presence of the attribute in the captured object. The presence of the attribute in the captured object can now be determined from the tag, which can be stored in a database. | 07-22-2010 |
| 20110004599 | A SYSTEM AND METHOD FOR WORD INDEXING IN A CAPTURE SYSTEM AND QUERYING THEREOF - Searching of objects captured by a capture system can be improved by eliminating irrelevant objects from a query. In one embodiment, the present invention includes receiving such a query for objects captured by a capture system, the query including at least one search term. This search term is then hashed to a term bit position using a hash function. Then objects can be eliminated if, in a word index associated with the object, the term bit position is not set. | 01-06-2011 |
| 20110149959 | HIGH SPEED PACKET CAPTURE - Packets can be read from a network interface into an application using a single kernel copy. In one embodiment, the invention includes a receiver packet memory to store captured packets, and a network interface driver operating in a kernel of a device to read packets captured by network interface hardware into the kernel by storing captured packets in the receiver packet memory. Then, an application interface can expose the receiver packet memory to an application executing on the device by representing the receiver packet memory as a virtual file. | 06-23-2011 |
| 20110208861 | OBJECT CLASSIFICATION IN A CAPTURE SYSTEM - Objects can be extracted from data flows captured by a capture device. Each captured object can then be classified according to content. In one embodiment, the present invention includes determining whether a captured object is binary or textual in nature, and classifying the captured object as one of a plurality of textual content types based tokens found in the captured object if the captured object is determined to be textual in nature. | 08-25-2011 |
| 20110276709 | Locational Tagging in a Capture System - A system and method for locational tagging in a capture system are described. Metadata associated with a captured object includes: information about a location in storage of an object and that objects association to a particular user; and/or tiered location information. | 11-10-2011 |

| 20100121853 | QUERY GENERATION FOR A CAPTURE SYSTEM - A document accessible over a network can be registered. A registered document, and the content contained therein, is not transmitted undetected over and off of the network. In one embodiment, the invention includes a manager agent to maintain signatures of registered documents and a match agent to detect the unauthorized transmission of the content of registered documents. | 05-13-2010 |
| 20110197284 | ATTRIBUTES OF CAPTURED OBJECTS IN A CAPTURE SYSTEM - A system and method for capturing objects and balancing systems resources in a capture system are described. An object is captured, metadata associated with the objected generated, and the object and metadata stored. | 08-11-2011 |
| 20110219237 | DOCUMENT REGISTRATION - A document accessible over a network can be registered. A registered document, and the content contained therein, cannot be transmitted undetected over and off of the network. In one embodiment, the invention includes maintaining a plurality of stored signatures, each signature being associated with one of a plurality of registered documents, intercepting an object being transmitted over a network, calculating a set of signatures associated with the intercepted object, and comparing the set of signatures with the plurality of stored signatures. In one embodiment, the invention can further include detecting registered content from the registered document being contained in the intercepted object, if the comparison results in a match of at least one of the signatures in the set of signatures with one or more of the plurality of stored signatures. | 09-08-2011 |
| 20110258197 | METHOD AND APPARATUS FOR DATA CAPTURE AND ANALYSIS SYSTEM - Content leaving a local network can be captured and indexed so that queries can be performed on the captured data. In one embodiment, the present invention comprises an apparatus that connects to a network. In one embodiment, this apparatus includes a network interface module to connect the apparatus to a network, a packet capture module to intercept packets being transmitted on the network, an object assembly module to reconstruct objects being transmitted on the network from the intercepted packets, an object classification module to determine the content in the reconstructed objects, and an object store module to store the objects. This apparatus can also have a user interface to enable a user to search objects stored in the object store module. | 10-20-2011 |
| 20110276575 | Query Generation for a Capture System - A document accessible over a network can be registered. A registered document, and the content contained therein, is not transmitted undetected over and off of the network. In one embodiment, the invention includes a manager agent to maintain signatures of registered documents and a match agent to detect the unauthorized transmission of the content of registered documents. | 11-10-2011 |
