Messaging security device
First Claim
Patent Images
1. A system, comprising:
- an interface component of a computer processor that receives data related to a plurality of communication sessions; and
a messaging security device (MSD) component of the computer processor that dynamically evaluates the data related to the plurality of communication sessions corresponding to a plurality of messaging, wherein the MSD component;
identifies all messaging protocols originated by a single communication device;
analyzes messages sent from the single communications device irrespective of the messaging protocol to determine whether a given message is malicious;
determines an infected messaging protocol through which a malicious message from the single communication device is received and that is associated with a threat; and
a repair component, wherein the repair component;
initiates a mechanism that corrects the single communication device by applying a security measure to all messaging protocols originated by the single communication device, andutilizes a messaging protocol that is disparate in comparison with the infected messaging protocol sending a notification to the single communication device,wherein the notification includes repair instructions that correct the single communication device.

14. A method, comprising:
-
analyzing data related to a plurality of communication sessions corresponding to a plurality of messaging protocols; identifying, using a computer processor, all messaging protocols originated by a single communication device; analyzing messages sent from the single communications device to determine whether a given message is malicious; determining an infected messaging protocol through which a malicious message from the single communication device is received and that is associated with a threat; initiating a mechanism that corrects the single communication device by applying a security measure to all messaging protocols originated by the single communication device and by utilizing a messaging protocol that is disparate in comparison with the infected messaging protocol sending a notification to the single communication device, wherein the notification includes repair instructions that correct the single communication device.
