An information security method to detect, validate, source, and/or remediate propagated, maliciously generated, AI content is disclosed. Search-engine spider(s) to crawl the Internet to identify posted content, which is analyzed with signature-based detection, anomaly detection, and machine learning to identify suspect content, which is compared against validated content. A malicious-AI probability score is generated based on the results of the foregoing AI analysis and the content differences. Metadata corresponding to the suspect content is extracted. A malicious activity mapping is compiled from available data. Suspect content is attempted to be recreated by publicly available online AI bots to identify the AI engine that generated the malicious content. Metadata pertaining to the origination source that accessed the source AI bot. Metadata is used to trace the malicious content back to the originator. Proofs regarding the foregoing are generated. Notifications/demands may be generated. Countermeasures against future attacks may be deployed.

Detection, validation, and sourcing of malicious AI-generated distributed data

An information-security method for securely accessing a web site through non-password user authentication to an intermediary portal is disclosed. A hardware/biometric login authenticates a user to a portal, which provides 1-click user access to web sites. The portal generates a strong password for each web site. Private keys with the passwords embedded therein are generated by the portal and stored along with public keys for the web sites. Communications between the portal and web sites are asymmetrically encrypted using the keys. Passwords for the web sites are updated or autorotated by the portal on-demand, at periodic intervals, and/or in response to data breaches or threat vectors to provide enhanced security. Updated login credentials are communicated to the web sites when the passwords are changed by the portal. Passwords are managed transparently to the user such that users need not be aware or keep track of their passwords.
