`ABSTRACT
`
`Protection systems and methodsprovidefor protecting one or
`more personal computers (““PCs’’) and/or other intermittently
`or persistently network accessible devices or processes from
`undesirable or otherwise malicious operations of Java™
`applets, ActiveX™ controls, JavaScript™ scripts, Visual
`Basic scripts, add-ins, downloaded/uploaded programs or
`other “Downloadables” or “mobile code” in whole or part. A
`protection engine embodimentprovides, within a server,fire-
`wall or other suitable “re-communicator,’ for monitoring
`information received by the communicator, determining
`whether received information does or is likely to include
`executable code, and if so, causes mobile protection code
`(MPC) to be transferred to and rendered operable within a
`destination device of the received information, more suitably
`by forming a protection agent including the MPC,protection
`policies and a detected-Downloadable. An MPC embodiment
`further provides, within a Downloadable-destination, for ini-
`tiating the Downloadable, enabling malicious Downloadable
`operation attempts to be received by the MPC,and causing
`(predetermined) corresponding operations to be executed in
`response to the attempts, more suitably in conjunction with
`protectionpolicies.

`
`BACKGROUNDOF THE INVENTION
`
`1. Field of the Invention
`
`This invention relates generally to computer networks, and
`more particularly provides a system and methodsfor protect-
`ing network-connectable devices from undesirable down-
`loadable operation.
`2. Description of the Background Art
`Advances in networking technology continue to impact an
`increasing numberand diversity of users. The Internet, for
`example, already provides to expert, intermediate and even
`novice users the informational, product and service resources
`of over 100,000 interconnected networks owned by govern-
`ments, universities, nonprofit groups, companies, etc. Unfor-
`tunately, particularly the Internet and other public networks
`have also become a major source of potentially system-fatal
`or otherwise damaging computer code commonly referred to
`as “viruses.”
`
`20
`
`25
`
`40
`
`45
`
`Efforts to forestall viruses from attacking networked com-
`puters have thus far met with only limited success at best.
`Typically, a virus protection program designedto identify and
`remove or protect against the initiating of known viruses is
`installed on a network firewall or individually networked
`computer. The program is then inevitably surmounted by
`some new virus that often causes damage to one or more
`computers. The damageis then assessed and, if isolated, the
`new virus is analyzed. A corresponding new virus protection
`program (or update thereof) is then developed andinstalled to
`combatthe new virus, and the new program operates success-
`fully until yet another new virus appears—and so on. Of
`course, damagehas alreadytypically been incurred.
`To make matters worse, certain classes of viruses are not
`well recognized or understood, let alone protected against. It
`is observed by this inventor, for example, that Downloadable
`information comprising program code can include distribut-
`able components (e.g. Java™applets and JavaScriptscripts,
`ActiveX™controls, Visual Basic, add-ins and/or others). It
`can also include, for example, application programs, Trojan
`horses, multiple compressed programs such as zip or meta
`files, among others. U.S. Pat. No. 5,983,348 to Shuang, how-
`ever, teaches a protection system for protecting against only
`
`60
`
`65
`
`2
`distributable components including “Java applets or ActiveX
`controls”, and further does so using resource intensive and
`high bandwidth static Downloadable content and operational
`analysis, and modification of the Downloadable component;
`Shuang further fails to detect or protect against additional
`program code included within a tested Downloadable. U.S.
`Pat. No. 5,974,549 to Golan teachesa protection system that
`further focuses only on protecting against ActiveX controls
`and not other distributable components,
`let alone other
`Downloadable types. U.S. Pat. No. 6,167,520 to Touboul
`enables more accurate protection than Shuang or Golan, but
`lacksthegreater flexibility and efficiency taught herein, as do
`Shuang and Golan.
`Accordingly, there remains a need for efficient, accurate
`and flexible protection of computers and other network con-
`nectable devices from malicious Downloadables.
`
`SUMMARYOF THE INVENTION
`
`The present invention provides protection systems and
`methods capable ofprotecting a personal computer (“PC”) or
`other persistently or even intermittently network accessible
`devicesor processes from harmful, undesirable, suspicious or
`other “malicious” operations that might otherwise be effec-
`tuated by remotely operable code. While enabling the capa-
`bilities ofprior systems, the present invention is not nearly so
`limited, resource intensiveor inflexible, and yet enables more
`reliable protection. For example, remotely operable code that
`is protectable against can include downloadable application
`programs, Trojan horses and program code groupings, as well
`as
`software
`“components”,
`such as Java!
`applets,
`ActiveX™controls, JavaScript™/Visual Basic scripts, add-
`ins, etc., among others. Protection can also be provided in a
`distributed interactively, automatically or mixed configurable
`manner using protected client, server or other parameters,
`redirection, local/remote logging, etc., and other server/client
`based protection measures can also be separately and/or
`interoperably utilized, among other examples.
`In one aspect, embodiments of the invention provide for
`determining, within one or more network “servers”(e.g. fire-
`walls, resources, gateways, email relays or other devices/
`processes that are capable of receiving-and-transferring a
`Downloadable) whether
`received information includes
`execulable code (and is a “Downloadable”). Embodiments
`also provide for delivering static, configurable and/or exten-
`sible remotely operable protection policies to a Download-
`able-destination, more typically as a sandboxed package
`including the mobile protection code, downloadable policies
`and one or more received Downloadables. Further client-
`
`based or remote protection code/policics can also be utilized
`in a distributed manner. Embodiments also provide for caus-
`ing the mobile protection code to be executed within a Down-
`loadable-destination in a mannerthat enables various Down-
`loadable operations to be detected, intercepted or further
`responded to via protection operations. Additional server/
`information-destination device security or other protection is
`also enabled, amongstill further aspects.
`A protection engine according to an embodiment of the
`invention is operable within one or more network servers,
`firewalls or other network connectable information re-com-
`municating devices (as are referred to herein summarily one
`or more “servers” or “re-communicators”). The protection
`engine includes an information monitor for monitoring infor-
`mation received by theserver, and a code detection engine for
`determining whether the received information includes
`executable code. The protection engine also includes a pack-
`aging engine for causing a sandboxed package, typically

`including mobile protection code and downloadable protec-
`tion policies to be sent to a Downloadable-destination in
`conjunction with the received information, if the received
`information is determined to be a Downloadable.
`
`A sandboxed package according to an embodimentof the
`inventionis receivable by and operable with a remote Down-
`loadable-destination. The
`sandboxed package includes
`mobile protection code (“MPC”) for causing one or more
`predetermined malicious operations or operation combina-
`tions of a Downloadable to be monitored or otherwise inter-
`cepted. The sandboxed packagealso includesprotection poli-
`cies
`(operable
`alone or
`in conjunction with further
`Downloadable-destination stored or received policies/MPCs)
`for causing one or more predetermined operations to be per-
`formed if one or more undesirable operations of the Down-
`loadable is/are intercepted. The sandboxed package can also
`include a corresponding Downloadable and can provide for
`initiating the Downloadable in a protective “sandbox”. The
`MPC’/policies can further
`include a communicator
`for
`enabling further MPC/policy information or “modules”to be
`utilized and/or for event logging or other purposes.
`A sandbox protection system according to an embodiment
`ofthe invention comprises an installer for enabling a received
`MPCto be executed within a Downloadable-destination (de-
`vice/process) and further causing a Downloadable applica-
`tion program, distributable component or other received
`downloadable code to be received and installed within the
`
`Downloadable-destination. The protection system also
`includes a diverter for monitoring one or more operation
`attempts of the Downloadable, an operation analyzer for
`determining one or more responses to the attempts, and a
`security enforcer for effectuating responses to the monitored
`operations. The protection system can further include one or
`more security policies according to which one or more pro-
`tection system elements are operable automatically (e.g. pro-
`grammatically) or in conjunction with user intervention (e.g.
`as enabled bythe security enforcer). The security policies can
`also be configurable/extensible in accordance with further
`downloadable and/or Downloadable-destination informa-
`tion.
`A method according to an embodiment of the invention
`includes receiving downloadable information, determining
`whether the downloadable information includes executable
`
`code, and causing a mobile protection code and security
`policies to be communicated to a network client in conjunc-
`tion with security policies and the downloadable information
`if the downloadable information is determined to include
`executable code. The determining can further provide mul-
`tiple tests for detecting, alone or together, whether the down-
`loadable information includes executable code.
`
`A further method according to an embodiment of the
`invention includes
`forming a
`sandboxed package that
`includes mobile protection code (“MPC”), protection poli-
`cies, and a received, detected-Downloadable, and causing the
`sandhoxed package to be communicated to and installed by a
`receiving device or process (“user device”) for responding to
`one or more malicious operation attempts by the detected-
`Downloadable from within the user device. The MPC/poli-
`cies can further include a base “module”and a “communica-
`
`tor” for enabling further up/downloading of one or more
`further “modules”or other information (e.g. events, user/user
`device information,etc.).
`Another method according to an embodimentofthe inven-
`tion includesinstalling, within a user device, received mobile
`protection code (“MPC”) and protection policies in conjunc-
`tion with the user device receiving a downloadable applica-
`tion program, component or other Downloadable(s). The
`
`4
`method also includes determining, by the MPC, a resource
`access attempt by the Downloadable, andinitiating, by the
`MPC,one or more predetermined operations corresponding
`to the attempt. (Predetermined operations can, for example,
`comprise initiating user, administrator, client, network orpro-
`tection system determinable operations, including but not
`limited to modifying the Downloadableoperation,extricating
`the Downloadable, notifying a user/another, maintaining a
`local/remote log, causing one or more MPCs/policies to be
`downloaded, etc.)
`systems and methods according to
`Advantageously,
`embodiments of the invention enable potentially damaging,
`undesirable or otherwise malicious operations by even
`unknown mobile code to be detected, prevented, modified
`and/or otherwise protected against without modifying the
`mobile code. Such protection is further enabled in a manner
`that is capable of minimizing server and client resource
`requirements, does not require pre-installation of security
`code within a Downloadable-destination, and provides for
`client specific or generic and readily updateable security mea-
`sures to be flexibly and efficiently implemented. Embodi-
`ments further provide for thwarting efforts to bypass security
`measures (e.g. by “hiding” undesirable operation causing
`information within apparently inert or otherwise “friendly”
`downloadable information) and/or dividing or combining
`security measures for even greater flexibility and/or effi-
`ciency.
`Embodiments also provide for determining protection
`policies that can be downloaded and/or ascertained from
`other security information(e.g. browser settings, administra-
`tive policies, user input, uploaded information,etc.). Differ-
`ent actions in responseto different Downloadable operations,
`clients, users and/or other criteria are also enabled, and
`embodiments provide for implementing other security mcea-
`sures, such as verifying a downloadable source,certification,
`authentication, etc. Appropriate action can also be accom-
`plished automatically (e.g. programmatically) and/or in con-
`junction with alerting one or more users/administrators, uti-
`lizing user input, etc. Embodiments further enable desirable
`Downloadable operations to remain substantially unaffected,
`amongother aspects.
