Filed:

Jul 24, 2008

Appl. No.:

12/178772

Inventors:

Michael Sutton - Reston VA, US

Assignee:

Zscaler, Inc. - San Jose CA

International Classification:

H04L 29/06

US Classification:

726 22

Abstract:

Systems, methods and apparatus for identifying web risks use a web risk service external to network edges of at least one system. The web risk service receives a web request from a computer within the at least one system, the web request identifying at least one network address. The web risk service determines a web risk index score for the at least one network address, and compares the determined web risk index score to at least one threshold value. Based on the comparison, the service determines how to handle the web request, e. g. , by forwarding, blocking, and/or logging the web request.

US Classification:

726 22, 709224

Abstract:

Systems, methods and apparatus for a distributed security system that provides security processing for security customers external to network edges of external systems. Each security customer is associated with one or more external systems. The security system can monitor data communications originating from or destined to the external systems and generate security-related information based on the monitored communications. For each security customer, the system can aggregate the system information from each external system associated with that customer, regardless of the geographical location of the system.
