In concrete terms, the patent is about detecting electronic messages, such as emails, which are highly likely to have been sent in large volumes by means of a botnet.<\/p>\n<p>To explain how this works in a short and simple way, emails received by a messaging server are given a time stamp, which is then stored in a database along with metadata about the sender and the contents. This can be used to compare with messages received later. If a large amount of emails are discovered to have simultaneously come from the same sender or have the identical content, it raises suspicion that the messages have been sent by a botnet and may well contain either spam or malware.<\/p>\n<p>Enterprises interested in implementing the approach described above, are welcome to <a href=\"https:\/\/www.retarus.com\/contact\/\">get in touch with Retarus<\/a> in this regard.<\/p>\n<p>P.S.: And the best <a href=\"https:\/\/register.epo.org\/application?number=EP16150573\">is yet to come<\/a> \ud83d\ude09<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>In mid-November we were granted another patent, this time by the European Patent Office (EPO).<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":14,"featured_media":3002,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"closed","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"_acf_changed":false,"_et_pb_use_builder":"","_et_pb_old_content":"","_et_gb_content_width":"","_s2mail":"yes","footnotes":""},"categories":[8,15],"tags":[1345,102,1237],"dipi_cpt_category":[],"class_list":["post-3001","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-news","category-security","tag-botnet","tag-email-security","tag-patent"],"acf":[],"yoast_head":"<!-- This site is optimized with the Yoast SEO Premium plugin v24.1 (Yoast SEO v24.1) -
