14. A method of preventing the transmission of known or unknown electronic content to and from servers or workstations or combination thereof connected to a common network comprising of:
-
sending response information from one or more servers or one or more workstations or combination thereof to a designated recipient;
verifying the response information by intermediate verifier before the information reaches designated recipient;
relaying the verified information to the designated recipient and wherein the method of verifying includes the filtering of the known or un known electronic content is based on its functions, patterns, names and orientation and formats of the electronic contents. - View Dependent Claims (16)

19. A computer readable medium for verification for known or unknown electronic content transmitted between one or more servers or one or more workstations or combination thereof comprising of program instructions for verifying the electronic content by:
-
checking the presence of known patterns in the electronic contents;
checking the presence of known name of electronic contents such as name of file;
checking orientation and format of the electronic contents such as plain text file, image file or data file;
checking function of the electronic content such as but not limited to erasure files without users knowledge or instructions, automatic sharing of files and corruption of files and/or program instructions for checking it compliance with the application/network protocol specification available at the IETF programmed with such capabilities. - View Dependent Claims (20, 21, 23)
