Appl. No.:

10/165610

Inventors:

Rajive Bagrodia - Los Angeles CA, US
Ken Tang - El Monte CA, US
Julian Hsu - Los Angeles CA, US

Assignee:

Scalable Network Technologies, Inc. - Culver City CA

International Classification:

G06F 15/177

US Classification:

709221, 703 1, 703 21

Abstract:

A system and method for network simulation and enhancement includes an experiment configuration engine that provides various proposed traffic and/or network models, and a simulator responsive to the proposed traffic and/or network models to execute a plurality of simulations for the network using parallel discrete event simulation, to determine an optimal network configuration based upon an objective function for enhancing an aspect of network performance. The traffic and/or network models may be based on monitored data from the network indicating a current network state and current network traffic. Reconfiguration instructions for the new network configuration may be conveyed from the simulator to the network, so as to effectuate ongoing, real-time enhancement of the network. The network model(s) may cover internal operational details of individual network devices (e. g. , routers and/or switches) as well as operation of the network as a whole.

Abstract:

Described herein are systems and methods that provide a mechanism to effectively proxy and protect HTTP/TLS redirection attempts. This technique is a sub component of the Dynamic API Scanning Service and breaks from standard patterns and is how the abstraction from the security scanners is accomplished. The resulting scanner is unaware that a man-in-the-middle is present. Furthermore, this technique mirrors the intended target request with a new request, never forwarding the original request from the scanner. This action provides protection to the end target as only key elements of the HTTP request are used while crafting a new HTTP request.

Abstract:

Described herein are systems and methods for abstracted analysis system design for a dynamic API scanning service. The disclosure provides a simplified API scanning service by abstracting underlining security scanning techniques and configurations. This presents a normalized view to users of the service. Both input parameters and scan output data is abstracted from users, and is driven based on logic in the service. By providing this simplified view, users can quickly, and without prior security scanning knowledge, use this service to measure their security exposure and mitigate as needed.
