Method and system for creating and receiving neutralized data items

Abstract

Computerized methods and systems receive neutralized data items on a first entity from a second entity over a network by receiving a first data item from the second entity. A security protocol that applies rules and policies is applied to the first data item to create a second data item that is a neutralized version of the first data item. The first data item and the second data item are converted into comparable forms. The second data item is analyzed against the first data item by comparing the comparable forms to form at least one comparison measure. The second data item is received on the endpoint if the at least one comparison measure satisfies a threshold criterion. The security protocol is modified to adjust the applied rules and policies if the at least one comparison measure does not satisfy the threshold criterion.
