METHOD AND SYSTEM FOR DETECTING RESTRICTED CONTENT ASSOCIATED WITH RETRIEVED CONTENT
In embodiments of the present invention improved capabilities are described for receiving contextual information relating to a client request for content, determining that content delivered in response to the client request is restricted content through a scanning facility, and communicating the contextual information to a central repository for use in detection rules generation. Further, the content may be delivered to the central repository along with the contextual information.
1 . A method comprising:
receiving contextual information relating to a client request for content;
determining that content delivered in response to the client request is restricted content; and
communicating the contextual information to a central repository for use in detection rules generation.
2 . The method of claim 1 wherein the contextual information is extracted from a URI included in the client request.
3 . (canceled)
4 . The method of claim 1 wherein the contextual information is locale information.
5 . The method of claim 1 wherein the contextual information is meta-data information.
6 . The method of claim 1 wherein the contextual information is resource information.
7 . The method of claim 1 wherein the step of determining is associated with a scanning facility.
8 . The method of claim 7 wherein the scanning facility is local to the client.
9 . The method of claim 7 wherein the scanning facility is a server based scanning facility.
10 . The method of claim 1 wherein the central repository is accessible to a plurality of clients.
11 . The method of claim 10 wherein the plurality of clients receives detection information associated with the central repository.
12 . The method of claim 11 wherein the information is the contextual information.
13 . The method of claim 11 wherein the information is a rule.
14 . A method comprising:
deriving contextual information from content received from a network location;
determining that the content is restricted content; and
communicating the contextual information to a central repository for use in detection rules generation.
15 . A method comprising:
scanning content for restricted content following delivery of the content from a network location;
scanning the content a second time at a later point in time for a change in the content and for restricted content; and
communicating information relating to the content in response to a determination that the content is restricted content and that the content changed since its delivery from the network location.
16 . A method comprising:
scanning content for restricted content following delivery of the content from a network location in response to a client request for the content;
deriving information from the content; and
in response to a positive detection that the content is restricted content communicating the derived information and information relating to the client request to a central repository for use in detection rules generation.
17 . A system comprising:
contextual information relating to a client request for content;
content delivered in response to the client request is restricted content; and
contextual information communicated to a central repository for use in detection rules generation.
18 . The system of claim 17 wherein the contextual information is extracted from a URI included in the client request.
19 . (canceled)
20 . The system of claim 17 wherein the contextual information is locale information.
21 . The system of claim 17 wherein the contextual information is meta-data information.
22 . The system of claim 17 wherein the contextual information is resource information.
23 . The system of claim 17 wherein the content is determined to be restricted content in association with a scanning facility.
24 . The system of claim 23 wherein the scanning facility is local to the client.
25 . The system of claim 23 wherein the scanning facility is a server based scanning facility.
26 . The system of claim 23 wherein the central repository is accessible to a plurality of clients.
27 . The system of claim 26 wherein the plurality of clients receives detection information associated with the central repository.
28 . The system of claim 27 wherein the information is the contextual information.
29 . The system of claim 27 wherein the information is a rule.
30 . A system comprising:
contextual information derived from content received from a network location;
content that is restricted content; and
contextual information communicated to a central repository for use in detection rules generation.
31 . A system comprising:
a scanning facility for scanning content for restricted content following delivery of the content from a network location;
the scanning facility scanning the content a second time at a later point in time for a change in the content and for restricted content; and
information relating to the content communicated in response to a determination that the content is restricted content and that the content changed since its delivery from the network location.
32 . A system comprising:
a scanning facility scanning content for restricted content following delivery of the content from a network location in response to a client request for the content;
information derived from the content; and
the derived information and information communicated in response to a positive detection that the content is restricted content relating to the client request to a central repository for use in detection rules generation.
