| 20090119740 | ADJUSTING FILTER OR CLASSIFICATION CONTROL SETTINGS - Methods and systems for adjusting control settings associated with filtering or classifying communications to a computer or a network. The adjustment of the control settings can include adjustment of policy and/or security settings associated with the computer or network. Ranges associated with the control settings can also be provided in some implementations. | 05-07-2009 |
| 20090122699 | PRIORITIZING NETWORK TRAFFIC - Methods and systems for operation upon one or more data processors for prioritizing transmission among a plurality of data streams based upon a classification associated with the data packets associated with each of the plurality of data streams, respectively. Systems and methods can operate to allocate bandwidth to priority data streams first and recursively allocate remaining bandwidth to lesser priority data streams based upon the priority associated with those respective lesser priority data streams. | 05-14-2009 |
| 20090125980 | NETWORK RATING - Methods and systems for operation upon one or more data processors for assigning a reputation to a messaging entity by analyzing the attributes of the entity, correlating the attributes with known attributes to define relationships between entities sharing attributes, and attributing a portion of the reputation of one related entity to the reputation of the other related entity. | 05-14-2009 |
| 20090254663 | Prioritizing Network Traffic - Methods and systems for operation upon one or more data processors for prioritizing transmission of communications associated with an entity based upon reputation information associated with the entity. | 10-08-2009 |
| 20100306846 | REPUTATION BASED LOAD BALANCING - Methods and systems for operation upon one or more data processors for efficiently processing communications based upon reputation of an entity associated with the communication. | 12-02-2010 |
| 20110162070 | MALWARE DETECTION VIA REPUTATION SYSTEM - A computer network device receives a digital file and extracts a plurality of high level features from the file. The plurality of high level features are evaluated using a classifier to determine whether the file is benign or malicious. The file is forwarded to a requesting computer if the file is determined to be benign, and blocked if the file is determined to be malicious. | 06-30-2011 |
| 20110191423 | REPUTATION MANAGEMENT FOR NETWORK CONTENT CLASSIFICATION - A system derives a reputation for a plurality of network addresses, the reputation of each network address determined by analyzing a plurality of high-level email features related to one or more emails originating from the network address. The plurality of high-level email features include domain registration analysis, hashed term frequency indexing, persistent communication, address age, correlation analysis, zombie detection, and hash vault matching. | 08-04-2011 |
