A method for computer security, includes intercepting an incoming communication, placing the communication into a quarantine queue, selecting a communication from the quarantine queue, determining whether the selected communication contains undesirable code, determining whether a quarantine time for the selected communication has lapsed if the selected communication does not contain undesirable code and placing the selected communication back in the quarantine queue if the quarantine time has not elapsed.

Method and systems for computer security

A method for detecting malicious programs, the method includes determining whether an object is suspicious, opening the suspicious object in a disposable, secure, single purpose VM (virtual machine) session and detecting indications of malicious behavior when the suspicious object is opened within the VM session.

Method and system for isolating suspicious email

Method and apparatus for providing computer security is provided. Subscriber information is stored in a repository and an exploit probe is sent to a subscriber's computer system. A probe message based on the computer system's response to the exploit probe is generated.

Method and apparatus for identifying computer vulnerabilities using exploit probes and remote scanning

A method for automated feature selection is provided. One or more initial sets of features are generated and evaluated to determine quality scores for the feature sets. Selected ones of the feature sets are (i) chosen according to the quality scores and modified to generate a generation of modified feature sets, (ii) the modified feature sets are evaluated to determine quality scores for the modified feature sets, and (i) and (ii) are repeated until a modified feature set is satisfactory.

Method and apparatus for automated feature selection

An adaptive system modeling method is provided. A system model is generated by using data corresponding to an input features set selected by using a baseline significance signature of the system. A superset of the input features and other features also is selected by using the baseline significance signature. Data collected from the system corresponding to the superset is maintained online. A new significance signature of the system is periodically or intermittently determined by performing a discriminant analysis using the online superset data, and is used to detect an evolutionary change in the system.

Method and apparatus for discovering evolutionary changes within a system

Pattern recognition of common modes by neural networks and other techniques are used to monitor and determine or predict the state of networks, computers, software systems, logical networks or other components of an information system, to report actual or predicted states, and to report other state characteristics.
