Definitions
- the present invention provides a system for detecting -whether or not a computer system is, has, or can participate in a Peer-to-Peer network.
- peer to peer networks which are the subject of the present invention comprise multiple nodes, each node typically consisting both of file server and client which can send and receive data or "Communication messages" to or from a node to which such is connected.
- each node is connected to other nodes over a communication medium such as the internet either directly or through some type of proxy. For example, when a search request is issued such originating node sends a search request to all of the nodes to which it is connected, (see Figure 1) These nodes search their list of available files and if a match is found they send a response back with the location.
- a peer to peer proxy network typically consists of node A which is connected to a node B and node B is connected to a node C.
- Node A is not connected to node C such that if node A issues a search request it will be forwarded to node B and Node B will search its available files and if a match is found it will send a response back to node A. Node B will then forward node A's request to node C and Node C will search its available files and if a match is found it will send a response back to . node B. Node B will then forward this response to node A.
- Figure 3 discloses a nonproxy loop network wherein each node is directly connected to another.
- Some peer to peer networks utilize a leaf node/main node proxy topology (See Figure 4) where some nodes are classified as main nodes and the remaining nodes are classified as leaf nodes.
- Leaf nodes can only connect to main nodes. Only main nodes can connect to other main nodes.
- Peer-to-Peer client software has a software bug that permits the sharing of files and directories that the user never intended to be shared. Sometimes it is a violation of corporate policy to have Peer-to-Peer client software installed.
- the information shared may be detrimental the user, the company they work for, or even to national security. It would therefore be advantageous to network administrators or others whose responsibility it is to enforce information containment to be able to locate computers with Peer-to-Peer network software installed so that it can be assessed or removed. It would also be advantageous to know if Peer-to-Peer network software has ever been installed and utilized so that a threat assessment can be made.
- the present invention provides a system for ascertaining whether or not a computer is, has, or could participate in a Peer-to-Peer network.
- the preferred system comprises the steps of: a. Executing a software program on the target computer; and b. Scanning said target computer for signs of Pcer-to-Pcer client software, Peer-to- Peer network communications, or files obtained from Peer-t ⁇ -Peer networks.
- the present invention provides a system for scanning a computer system to ascertain whether or not the computer is, has, or could participate in a Peer-to-Peer network.
- Figure 1 is a simplified schematic of a two node peer to peer network
- Figure 2 is a simplified schematic of a peer to peer proxy network
- Figure 3 is a simplified schematic view of a peer to peer, nonproxy, loop network.
- the preferred system of the present invention advantageously utilizes a scanning software program to scan the target computer to look for signs of participation in a Peer- to-Peer network, an ability to participate in a Peer-to-Peer network, or both.
- the scanning software has certain preferred attributes and these attributes are configured for the specific type of Peer-to-Peer scanning system desired by the enforcing user.
- a software program is executed on the target computer. This software program will look through registry entries for a specific set of keys or values that match known Peer-to-Peer client software. If a match is found the enforcing user can be notified, the software program can disable the Peer-to-Peer client software, or both.
- a software program is executed on the target computer. This software program will look through the files and directories for a specific set of values that match known Peer-to-Peer client software. If a match is found the enforcing user can be notified, the software program can disable the Peer-to- Peer client software, or both.
- a software program is executed on the target computer. This software program will look through currently running processes for a value that matches known Peer-to-Peer client software. If a match is found the enforcing user can be notified, the software program can disable the Peer-to- Pe ⁇ r client software, or both.
- a software program is executed on the target computer.
- This software program will look through the files and directories for files that are music, movie, ebooks, or other files commonly acquired from Peer-to- Peer networks. If the computer contains more than a specific number of these files the enforcing user can be notified.
- a software program is executed on the target computer. This software program will monitor network communications looking for specific values that indicate a Peer-to-Peer network communication is occurring. If a communication is occurring the enforcing user can be notified, the software program can disable the Peer-to-Peer network communication, or both,
- a software program is executed that scans the TCP/IP ports of a target computer looking for known Peer-to-Peer network ports. The enforcing user can be notified if a match is found.
- the invention is embodied in a computer system that contains a processor unit, main memory, and an interconnect bus.
- the processor unit may contain a single microprocessor, or may contain a plurality of microprocessors for configuring the computer as a multi-processor system.
- the main memory stores, in part, instructions and data for execution by the processor unit If the ability of the inventive system is wholly or partially implemented in software, the main memory stores the executable code when in operation.
- the main memory may include banks of dynamic random access memory as well as high speed memory.
- the computer system may further include a mass storage device, peripheral devices, portable storage medium drives, input control device, a graphics subsystem, and an output display.
- the computer system may be connected through one or more data transport means.
- the processor unit and the main memory may be connected via a local microprocessor bus
- the mass storage device, peripheral devices, portable storage medium drives, graphics subsystem may be connected via one or more input/output (I/O) busses.
- the mass storage device which may be implemented with a magnetic disk drive or an optical disk drive, is nonvolatile storage device for storing data and instructions for use by the processor unit In the software embodiment, the mass storage device stores the software for loading to the main memory.
- the input control devices provide a portion of the user interface for a user of the computer system.
- the input control devices may include an alpha numeric keypad for inputting alphanumeric and other key information, a cursor control device, such as a mouse, a trackball, a stylus, or cursor direction keys.
- the computer system contains the graphics subsystem and the output display.
- the output display may include a cathode ray tube display or a liquid crystal display.
- the graphics subsystem receives textual and graphical information and processes the information for output to the output display.
- the components contained in the computer system are those typically found in general purpose computer systems, and in fact, these components are intended to represent a broad category of such computer components that are well known in the art
- the system may be implemented in either hardware or software.
- the software that includes a plurality of computer executable instructions for implementation on a general purpose computer system.
- the system Prior to loading into a general purpose computer system, the system may reside as encoded information on a computer readable medium, such as a magnetic floppy disc, magnetic tape compact disc read only memory (CD-ROM).
- the system may comprise a dedicated processor including processor instructions for performing the functions described herein. Circuits may also be developed to perform the functions described herein.
