This disclosure relates generally to an enterprise method, a technical field of software, hardware and/or networking technology, and in one example embodiment, to a method, system and apparatus of network artifact identification and extraction.
An entity may not allow users to transmit/receive an artifact (e.g., Microsoft Word® document, digital photograph, etc.) having an unauthorized information (e.g., a trade secret, etc.) in an electronic transmission (e.g., e-mail, instant message, etc.) to a destination in a network that is not controlled by the entity. For example, the entity may prohibit the transmission/reception of a file with a digital photographic image based solely on the content of that image (e.g., an offensive image).
It may be difficult for the entity to obtain evidence that a particular user has transmitted/received a prohibited type of information unless the entity has an opportunity to visually examine a content of the artifact. The entity may employ several methods to obtain evidence that the particular user has transmitted/received a prohibited type of information. For example, the entity may reconfigure an electronic mail setting of the particular user's electronic mail application to forward all electronic mail to a supervisor employed by the entity. However, the particular user may transmit information at a greater frequency and/or at different times (e.g., at night) than can be monitored by the supervisor. The methods employed by the entity may be inefficient and/or incomplete.
Furthermore, they may require considerable expenditures of financial, network band width and/or supervisor work time to implement.
A method, system, and apparatus of network artifact identification and extraction are disclosed. In one aspect, a method includes aggregating a payload data (e.g., may be a component of the extracted artifact) from different network packets to form an aggregated payload data, matching the payload data with an entry of a library of known artifacts, determining a type of the payload data based on a match with the entry of the library of known artifacts, separating the payload data from a header data in a network packet, and communicating the aggregated payload data as an extracted artifact (e.g., may be a word processing document, a spreadsheet document, a database, an image, a video, a multimedia file, an email, an instant message communication, an audio file, a compressed file, an executable file, a web page, a presentation, etc.) to a user.
The method may include using the extracted artifact to perform network visibility analysis of users on packets flowing across the network. The method may also include validating that the entry is accurate by performing a deeper analysis of the payload data with the entry of the library of known artifacts. The method may determine that the payload data is encrypted. The method may apply an encrypted data processing module of a network appliance to generate a request for the encrypted data from a source on behalf of a requester. The method may receive a decryption key from a source of the encrypted data. The method may decrypt the encrypted data on the network appliance using the decryption key. The method may determine the type of the encrypted data based on the decryption.
The method may include determining that the artifact is incomplete through an examination of a file structure with a known file specification. The method may communicate a portion of the incomplete artifact to the user. The method may also include forming the library of known artifacts by identifying markers (e.g., may be start bits of the artifact, payload length of the artifact, a set of ending bits, and/or other identification bits found in each instance of the artifact) found in data files stored in each instance of a particular type of artifact.
In another aspect, a system includes a packet rearrange module to reorder a network packet and other network packets based on a sequence number of each of the network packet and other network packets, a packet analyzer module to separate a payload data (e.g., may be a component of the extracted artifact) from a header data in the network packet, an identification module to match the payload data with an entry of a library of known artifacts, a validation module to verify that the entry is accurate by performing a deeper analysis of the payload data with the entry of the library of known artifacts, a type module determine a type of the payload data based on a match with the entry in the library of known artifacts, a presentation module to aggregate the payload data from different network packets to form an aggregated payload data, and an extraction module to communicate the aggregated payload data as an extracted artifact (e.g., may be a word processing document, a spreadsheet document, a database, an image, a video, a multimedia file, an email, an instant message communication, an audio file, a compressed file, an executable file, a web page, a presentation, etc.) to a user.
The system may include a network visibility module to perform network visibility analysis users on packets flowing across the network using the extracted artifact. The system may include a determination module to determine that the payload data is encrypted. The method may include encrypted data processing module to generate a request for the encrypted data from a source on behalf of a requestor and/or to receive a decryption key on a network appliance. The method may include a decryption module to apply the decryption key to decrypt the encrypted data on the network appliance.
The system may include an incomplete management module to determine that the artifact is incomplete, and/or to communicate a portion of the incomplete artifact to the user. The system may include a library formation module to create the library of known artifacts by identifying markers (e.g., may be start bits of the artifact, payload length of the artifact, a set of ending bits, and/or other identification bits found in each instance of the artifact) found in data files stored in each instance of a particular type of artifact.
In yet another aspect, the method includes forming a library of known artifacts by identifying markers (e.g., may be start bits of the artifact, payload length of the artifact, a set of ending bits, and/or other identification bits found in each instance of the artifact) found in data files stored in each instance of a particular type of artifact, identifying at least one marker in a packet transmitted through a network based on a match with the library, determining a type of a file associated with the packet based on the at least one marker, aggregating relevant portions of the packet with other packets associated having the at least one marker to extract the file from the network, and using the extracted file (e.g., may be a word processing document, a spreadsheet document, a database, an image, a video, a multimedia file, an email, an instant message communication, an audio file, a compressed file, an executable file, a web page, a presentation, etc.) to perform network visibility analysis of users on data files flowing across the network.
The method may include communicating the extracted file to a user after reordering the packet and/or the other packets based on sequence numbers of each packet. The method may include determining that the packet is encrypted. The method may apply an encrypted data processing module of a network appliance to generate a request for the encrypted data from a source on behalf of a requester. The method may receive a decryption key on the network appliance. The method may decrypt the packet on the network appliance using the decryption key. The method may determine the type of an encrypted file based on decrypted data.
The method may also include determining that the extracted file is incomplete. The method may communicate a portion of the extracted file that is incomplete to the user.
