Data breaches or leaks often expose large quantities of secure user credentials (e.g., user names and/or passwords). The exposed credentials may result in associated accounts and/or secure information being compromised. Systems may be implemented that allow users to provide potentially-exposed credentials to determine whether the particular credential was subject to a breach or leak. However, providing such credentials may further subject the user's information to additional data breaches or leaks.
According to at least one embodiment, a method for locating user credentials in databases is described. In one embodiment, the method may include enabling a user to generate remotely a cryptographic hash of a user credential of the user. The user credential may include a user name or a password, or both, associated with the user. In some examples, the method may include receiving a portion of the cryptographic hash from the user. In other examples, the method may include comparing the portion of the cryptographic hash with a plurality of cryptographic hashes of user credentials stored at a database. In some examples, the method may include determining whether a match exists between the portion of the cryptographic hash and at least one of the plurality of cryptographic hashes. Additionally or alternatively, the method may include transmitting a notification to the user indicating whether the user credential is stored at the database based at least in part on a result of the comparing.
In some examples, the method may include determining a false positive error rate based at least in part on determining the portion of the cryptographic hash matches at least one of the plurality of cryptographic hashes and determining a quantity of the plurality of cryptographic hashes stored at the database. The notification may include an indication of the false positive error rate. In other examples, the determined false positive error rate may be based at least in part on a number of bits associated with the portion of the cryptographic hash. Additionally or alternatively, the portion of the cryptographic hash may include a subset of a predetermined maximum number of bits for each cryptographic hash. In other examples, a size or location, or both size and location, of the portion of the cryptographic hash may be selected by the user.
In other examples, the selected portion may include at least one of a beginning portion of the cryptographic hash, a middle portion of the cryptographic hash, or an ending portion of the cryptographic hash, or any combination thereof. Additionally or alternatively, the selected portion may include a non-contiguous portion of bits of the cryptographic hash. In some examples, a size or location, or both size and location(s), of the portion of the cryptographic hash may be selected randomly by a computing device. In other examples, the cryptographic hash and each of the plurality of cryptographic hashes may include at least 128 bits. Additionally or alternatively, only the user may have access to an untruncated version of the cryptographic hash.
A computing device configured for user credential location using prefix matching is also described. The computing device may include one or more processors and memory in electronic communication with the one or more processors. The memory may store computer executable instructions that when executed by the one or more processors cause the one or more processors to perform the steps of enabling a user to generate remotely a cryptographic hash of a user credential of the user. In some examples, the user credential may include a user name or a password, or both, associated with the user. In other examples, the memory may store computer executable instructions that when executed by the one or more processors cause the one or more processors to perform the steps of receiving a portion of the cryptographic hash from the user. In other examples, the memory may store computer executable instructions that when executed by the one or more processors cause the one or more processors to perform the steps of comparing the portion of the cryptographic hash with a plurality of cryptographic hashes of user credentials stored at a database.
In some examples, the memory may store computer executable instructions that when executed by the one or more processors cause the one or more processors to perform the steps of determining whether a match exists between the portion of the cryptographic hash and at least one of the plurality of cryptographic hashes. Additionally or alternatively, the memory may store computer executable instructions that when executed by the one or more processors cause the one or more processors to perform the steps of transmitting a notification to the user indicating whether the user credential is stored at the database based at least in part on a result of the comparing.
A computer-program product for user credential location using prefix matching is also described. The computer-program product may include a non-transitory computer-readable medium storing instructions thereon. When the instructions are executed by one or more processors, the execution of the instructions may cause the one or more processors to perform the steps of enabling a user to generate remotely a cryptographic hash of a user credential of the user. In some cases, the user credential may include a user name or a password, or both, associated with the user. In some examples, the execution of the instructions may cause the one or more processors to perform the steps of receiving a portion of the cryptographic hash from the user. In other examples, the execution of the instructions may cause the one or more processors to perform the steps of comparing the portion of the cryptographic hash with a plurality of cryptographic hashes of user credentials stored at a database.
In some examples, the execution of the instructions may cause the one or more processors to perform the steps of determining whether a match exists between the portion of the cryptographic hash and at least one of the plurality of cryptographic hashes.

Features from any of the above-mentioned embodiments may be used in combination with one another in accordance with the general principles described herein. These and other embodiments, features, and advantages will be more fully understood upon reading the following detailed description in conjunction with the accompanying drawings and claims.
The accompanying drawings illustrate a number of exemplary embodiments and are a part of the specification. Together with the following description, these drawings demonstrate and explain various principles of the instant disclosure.
While the embodiments described herein are susceptible to various modifications and alternative forms, specific embodiments have been shown by way of example in the drawings and will be described in detail herein. However, the exemplary embodiments described herein are not intended to be limited to the particular forms disclosed. Rather, the instant disclosure covers all modifications, equivalents, and alternatives falling within the scope of the appended claims.
The systems and methods described herein relate to user credential location. More specifically, the systems and methods described herein relate to allowing users to securely locate user credentials stored at a database by generating a cryptographic hash associated with a particular user-defined credential.
Often times, credit and fraud prevention entities maintain large databases of credential pairs (e.g., a user name and a password) that have been the object of data breaches or leaks. Such entities' clients desire to protect their consumers by verifying that the credentials consumers use to access enterprise services haven't been previously included in a known data breach or leak. In order to determine whether particular credentials have been subject to a data breach or leak, enterprises generate a credential pair signature and submit that to a credit and fraud prevention web service. The web service returns a value indicating whether that credential pair signature exists in the breach dataset.
One way to generate a signature is to use a cryptographic hash. For example, one might use credential pair “SHA256” (e.g., a user name and password). Thus, in one example, the output of the generated cryptographic hash function may be a 256-bit value. In other examples, the hash may be 128-bits or greater. Some clients have ex-pressed privacy concerns about querying the credit and fraud prevention entity's dataset via this 256-bit signature. Cryptographic hash values are not reversible (e.g., you can't use the hash value to calculate the input). However, some clients are concerned that an entity may keep a log of queried signatures and potentially use rainbow tables or other mechanism to determine the original input. Thus some clients may prefer an approach that limits the data exposed to such entities through the query interface, insomuch as they are willing to accept a probabilistic result.
The solution presented herein is unique in that it gives a probabilistic determination of set membership (e.g., whether a given number exists in a set of large numbers) by querying based only on a portion of the target number (e.g., a prefix). The set membership probability may be included in query responses. A false positive (FP) rate may be based at least in part on the size of the population of entries being queried and/or features of the prefix. In some cases, the FP rate may be based at least in part on the signature size. In some cases, the present systems and methods may query to determine what prefix length will provide a certain fixed FP rate.
The invention described herein may be composed of a database of keys and logic for interacting with those keys. The keys may be unique within the set. Such an implementation may use a 256-bit key, for example. The keys may be sorted in binary order to improve the speed of lookups via a binary search algorithm. In some examples, the keys may be randomly distributed within the key space.
The invention described herein may include a web service that pro-vides an application programming interface (API) for clients to use. The invention may allow clients to query whether a specific key is present in the dataset. Through mutual agreement, clients may generate a key and truncate it at a specific length and submit that key for matching. For example, a user might submit the first 96 bits of a 256-bit key. In some cases, the user may select the truncated length and/or select a location of the prefix bits. As one example, a user may select a first portion of bits towards a start of the 256-bit key, a second portion of bits towards the middle of the 256-bit key, and/or third portion of bits towards the end of the 256-bit key.
In one embodiment, the web service may find any full-length keys in a database that match the prefix submitted. If a match is found, the service may return an indication of the match and a probability that the match represents a true positive and/or a false positive. In some cases, the service may not return false negative results. The false positive rate may be tuned by changing the length of the submitted key prefix. When a user prefers a lower false positive rate, the user may submit a longer key prefix.
As one example, a dataset of approximately 10 billion credential pairs that have been previously breached may be queried. In the example, the database may store a signature of each credential pair calculated as a cryptographic hash of a user name and password. In this example, the signatures may be randomly distributed in a 256-bit key space. To query the dataset, the present systems and methods may generate a credential signature using the same method (e.g., a cryptographic hash of a user name and password). Next, the present systems and methods may calculate a signature prefix by truncating the hash value to return the first 96-bits. That 96-bit value may be submitted to the API in place of the full 256-bit cryptographic hash. The present systems and methods may perform a search for any 256-bit signatures in the dataset that share the first 96-bits. If a match is found, then the service may return a positive indicator. If no match is found, then the service may return a negative indicator. However, when a match is found, the system may calculate the probability that a false positive has occurred using the formula p=m/2{circumflex over ( )}k, where k=96 (size of prefix in bits), m=10,000,000,000 (size of the dataset being searched). In this example p=1.26e-19, indicating a low probability that a false positive has occurred.
Examples of the device 105 may include any combination of mobile devices, smart phones, personal computing devices, computers, laptops, desktops, servers, media content set top boxes, or any combination thereof. In some cases, device 105 may include a user credential location module 145 integrated within device 105, or may be in communication with a user credential location module via network 115. In some examples, device 105 may be in communication with a remote device (e.g., a remote computing device; not shown).
Examples of a remote device (e.g., a remote computing device) may include at least one of one or more client machines, one or more mobile computing devices, one or more laptops, one or more desktops, one or more servers, one or more media set top boxes, or any combination thereof. Examples of server 110 may include any combination of a data server, a cloud server, proxy server, mail server, web server, application server, database server, communications server, file server, home server, mobile server, name server, or any combination thereof. In some examples, a remote computing device may connect to device 105 via network 115. In other examples, a remote computing device may connect directly to device 105. In some cases, device 105 may connect or attach to a remote computing device and/or server 110 via a wired and/or wireless connection. In some cases, device 105 may attach to any combination of a port, socket, and slot of computing device 150 and/or server 110.
In some configurations, the device 105 may include a user interface 135, application 140, and user credential location module 145. Although the components of the device 105 are depicted as being internal to the device 105, it is understood that one or more of the components may be external to the device 105 and connect to device 105 through wired and/or wireless connections. In some embodiments, application 140 may be installed on a computing device (e.g., a remote computing device; not shown) in order to allow a user to interface with a function of device 105, user credential location module 145, computing device 150, and/or server 110.
In some embodiments, device 105 may communicate with server 110 via network 115. Examples of network 115 may include any combination of cloud networks, local area networks (LAN), wide area networks (WAN), virtual private networks (VPN), wireless networks (using 802.11, for example), cellular networks (using 3G and/or LTE, for example), etc. In some configurations, the network 115 may include the Internet. It is noted that in some embodiments, the device 105 may not include user credential location module 145. For example, device 105 may include application 140 that allows device 105 to interface with a separate device via user credential location module 145 located on another device such as a remote computing device (not shown) and/or server 110. In some embodiments, device 105, remote computing device, and server 110 may include user credential location module 145 where at least a portion of the functions of user credential location module 145 are performed separately and/or concurrently on device 105, remote computing device, and/or server 110. Likewise, in some embodiments, a user may access the functions of device 105 (directly or through device 105 via user credential location module 145) from a remote computing device. For example, in some embodiments, a remote computing device may include a mobile application that interfaces with one or more functions of device 105, user credential location module 145, and/or server 110.
In some embodiments, server 110 may be coupled to database 120. Database 120 may be internal or external to the server 110. In one example, device 105 may be coupled to database 120. For example, in one embodiment database 120 may be internally or externally connected directly to device 105. Additionally or alternatively, database 120 may be internally or externally connected directly a remote computing device (not shown) and/or one or more network devices such as a gateway, switch, router, intrusion detection system, etc. Database 120 may include a plurality of cryptographic hashes 160 and user credential data 165. In some examples, each of the plurality of cryptographic hashes 160 may be associated with one or more user credential data entries 165.
As one example, device 105 (e.g., user credential location module 145) may determine whether particular user data is stored at database 120 (e.g., as part of user credential data 165) over network 115 via server 110.
As described above, user credential location module 145 may enable a user to determine whether particular user data is stored at database 120. In some embodiments, user credential location module 145 may be configured to perform the systems and methods described herein in conjunction with user interface 135 and application 140. User interface 135 may enable a user to interact with, control, and/or program one or more functions of user credential location module 145. Further details regarding the user credential location module 145 are discussed below.
The cryptographic hash module 205 may receive, from a remote device (e.g., from a remote computing device), a cryptographic hash of a user credential of the user. In other examples, the cryptographic hash module 205 may generate a cryptographic hash of a user credential of the user. For example, the cryptographic hash may include a user name, a password, or both, associated with the user. In the event that the cryptographic hash is received (e.g., from a remote computing device), the cryptographic hash module 205 may truncate the cryptographic hash. Stated another way, the cryptographic hash module 205 may determine a portion of the cryptographic hash for use in subsequent operations. Thus, in some examples, the cryptographic hash module 205 may determine that a portion of the cryptographic hash includes a subset of a predetermined maximum number of bits (e.g., at least 128-bits).
In other examples a user may indicate to cryptographic hash module 205 (e.g., via user interface 135 as described with reference to
The cryptographic hash comparison module 210 may compare the portion of the cryptographic hash with a plurality of cryptographic hashes of user credentials stored at a database. As described above with reference to

In some examples, false positive identification module 225 may determine a false positive error rate based at least in part on determining the portion of the cryptographic hash matches at least one of the plurality of cryptographic hashes (e.g., by determination module 215) and determining a quantity of the plurality of cryptographic hashes stored at the database. In some examples, the notification (e.g., transmitted by transmission module 220) includes an indication of the false positive error rate. In other examples, the determined false positive error rate may be based at least in part on a number of bits associated with the portion of the cryptographic hash.
In some examples, the cryptographic hash described above with reference to
In some examples, the size identification module 310 may receive an indication of a size of the portion of the cryptographic hash from a user (e.g., of device 105 as discussed with reference to
In some examples, the location identification module 315 may receive an indication of at least one location of the portion of the cryptographic hash from a user (e.g., of device 105 as discussed with reference to
In other examples, the portion identified by location identification module 315 may include one or more non-contiguous portions of bits of the cryptographic hash. For example, a user may indicate that the size of the portion is to be 128 bits. For instance, some of the 128 bits may be from a beginning portion, some of the 128 bits may be from a middle portion, and/or some of the 128 bits may be from an ending portion of the full-length cryptographic hash. Thus any combination of 128 bits of the cryptographic hash may be used in determining whether a match exists between the portion of the cryptographic hash and at least one of the plurality of cryptographic hashes.
In some examples, remote device 405 may be referred to as a user device and may be associated with a user seeking to locate user credentials stored at database 120.

In some examples, only the user may have access to an untruncated version of the cryptographic hash.
At block 610, the method 600 may include receiving a portion of the cryptographic hash from the user. In some examples, the portion of the cryptographic hash may include a subset of a predetermined maximum number of bits for each cryptographic hash. In other examples, a size or location, or both size and location, of the portion of the cryptographic hash may be selected by the user. Additionally or alternatively, the selected portion may include at least one of a beginning portion of the cryptographic hash, a middle portion of the cryptographic hash, or an ending portion of the cryptographic hash, or any combination thereof. In some examples, the selected portion may include a non-contiguous portion of bits of the cryptographic hash.

In other examples, the determined false positive error rate may be based at least in part on a number of bits associated with the portion of the cryptographic hash.
Bus 705 allows data communication between central processor 710 and system memory 715, which may include read-only memory (ROM) or flash memory (neither shown), and random access memory (RAM) (not shown), as previously noted. The RAM is generally the main memory into which the operating system and application programs are loaded. The ROM or flash memory can contain, among other code, the Basic Input-Output system (BIOS) which controls basic hardware operation such as the interaction with peripheral components or devices. For example, the user credential location module 145 to implement the present systems and methods may be stored within the system memory 715. Applications (e.g., application 140) resident with computing device 700 are generally stored on and accessed via a non-transitory computer readable medium, such as a hard disk drive (e.g., fixed disk drive 775) or other storage medium. Additionally, applications can be in the form of electronic signals modulated in accordance with the application and data communication technology when accessed via network interface 785.
Storage interface 780, as with the other storage interfaces of computing device 700, can connect to a standard computer readable medium for storage and/or retrieval of information, such as a fixed disk drive 775. Fixed disk drive 775 may be a part of computing device 700 or may be separate and accessed through other interface systems. Network interface 785 may provide a direct connection to a remote server via a direct network link to the Internet via a POP (point of presence). Network interface 785 may provide such connection using wireless techniques, including digital cellular telephone connection, Cellular Digital Packet Data (CDPD) connection, digital satellite data connection, or the like. In some embodiments, one or more sensors (e.g., motion sensor, smoke sensor, glass break sensor, door sensor, window sensor, carbon monoxide sensor, and the like) connect to computing device 700 wirelessly via network interface 785.
Many other devices and/or subsystems may be connected in a similar manner (e.g., entertainment system, computing device, remote cameras, wireless key fob, wall mounted user interface device, cell radio module, battery, alarm siren, door lock, lighting system, thermostat, home appliance monitor, utility equipment monitor, and so on). Conversely, all of the devices shown in
Moreover, regarding the signals described herein, those skilled in the art will recognize that a signal can be directly transmitted from a first block to a second block, or a signal can be modified (e.g., amplified, attenuated, delayed, latched, buffered, inverted, filtered, or otherwise modified) between the blocks. Although the signals of the above described embodiment are characterized as transmitted from one block to the next, other embodiments of the present systems and methods may include modified signals in place of such directly transmitted signals as long as the informational and/or functional aspect of the signal is transmitted between blocks. To some extent, a signal input at a second block can be conceptualized as a second signal derived from a first signal output from a first block due to physical limitations of the circuitry involved (e.g., there will inevitably be some attenuation and delay). Therefore, as used herein, a second signal derived from a first signal includes the first signal or any modifications to the first signal, whether due to circuit limitations or due to passage through other circuit elements which do not change the informational and/or final functional aspect of the first signal.
The signals associated with computing device 700 may include wireless communication signals such as radio frequency, electromagnetics, local area network (LAN), wide area network (WAN), virtual private network (VPN), wireless network (using 802.11, for example), cellular network (using 3G and/or LTE, for example), and/or other signals. The network interface 785 may enable one or more of WWAN (GSM, CDMA, and WCDMA), WLAN (including BLUETOOTH® and Wi-Fi), WMAN (WiMAX) for mobile communications, antennas for Wireless Personal Area Network (WPAN) applications (including RFID and UWB), etc.
The I/O controller 720 may operate in conjunction with network interface 785 and/or storage interface 780. The network interface 785 may enable computing device 700 with the ability to communicate with client devices (e.g., device 105 of
