Monitoring user credential login attempts across websites for potential attacks
A recently granted patent (Publication Number: US11888868B2) discloses a computer-implemented method for enhancing cybersecurity by monitoring login attempts with various sets of credentials at multiple websites. The method involves tracking invalid uses of credentials across different websites, evaluating this data to identify compromised credentials, and automatically initiating protective actions for compromised sets of credentials. These protective actions may include adding compromised credentials to a list, comparing them with incoming login attempts, and rejecting those that match the compromised list. Additionally, the method can notify users of compromised credentials through identified communication channels, enhancing user awareness and security measures.
Furthermore, the patent extends to a computer-readable medium and a system implementing the described method. The computer-readable medium stores instructions for monitoring login attempts, tracking credential usage, evaluating for compromises, and initiating protective actions. Similarly, the system comprises at least one processor and a storage medium with programming instructions to carry out the cybersecurity method. By automating the detection and response to compromised credentials across multiple websites, this technology aims to enhance overall cybersecurity measures and protect user accounts from unauthorized access. The system's ability to proactively identify and address compromised credentials can significantly contribute to mitigating cybersecurity risks and safeguarding sensitive user information in an increasingly digital world.
