Application: Techniques for mitigating leakage of user credentials (Patent ID: US20230421547A1)
The patent filed by Rapid7 Inc. describes systems and methods for mitigating the leakage of user credentials in a computer network. The process involves monitoring external data sources, scraping data, applying machine learning algorithms, specifically neural networks, to identify potential leaked credentials, authenticating these credentials using a database of valid credentials, and replacing any leaked credentials that are identified. The method also includes training neural networks on a predetermined set of credentials to identify credentials in unstructured text, checking if leaked credentials correspond to predetermined domain names, issuing alerts to users, and filtering out irrelevant credentials.
The system described in the patent includes a non-transitory memory storing computer-executable instructions and a processor that communicates with external data sources to monitor and scrape data, identify potential leaked credentials, authenticate them using a database of valid credentials, and replace any leaked credentials. The system is also capable of training neural networks to identify credentials in unstructured text, checking for correspondence with predetermined domain names, issuing alerts to users, removing leaked credentials from data sources, and filtering out irrelevant credentials. Overall, the patent outlines a comprehensive approach to detecting and mitigating the leakage of user credentials in a computer network using advanced technologies like machine learning and neural networks.
