Application Security via Dynamic Risk Assessment and Interception

The system segments the security assessment process into distinct modules: risk value calculation for individual communications, risk score aggregation for applications, risk profile score computation considering communication patterns and relationships, and separate blocking rule generation. This segmentation allows each component to be independently optimized and managed, reducing overall system complexity while maintaining comprehensive security coverage.

The patent introduces an intermediary security system that sits between applications and communications, automatically calculating risk values, generating blocking rules, and intercepting communications without requiring direct modification of the applications themselves. This intermediary layer simplifies the architecture by centralizing security logic and eliminating the need for complex application-level security implementations.

The system applies partial action by selectively monitoring and analyzing communications based on pre-established risk thresholds and communication patterns. Rather than comprehensively analyzing every communication detail, the system focuses on identifying high-risk communications that exceed threshold values or exhibit suspicious patterns, thereby reducing processing overhead while maintaining effective vulnerability detection.

The patent implements continuous risk assessment and monitoring as an ongoing process that operates in the background, continuously calculating risk values and updating blocking rules without interrupting normal application operations. This continuous action ensures timely detection of vulnerabilities while distributing the processing load over time rather than concentrating it in single intensive operations.
