Abstract
A system includes a terminal and a gateway. The terminal is programmed to identify, in received data, a signature of rogue data that includes at least a device identifier and an application identifier, and to transmit, via uplink to a satellite, the identified signature to a gateway. The gateway is programmed to block downlink data, upon determining that downlink data includes the received signature, and to broadcast the received signature to a second gateway.
Claims17
A system comprising:
- a terminal, programmed to:
- sniff at least one of uplink and downlink data;
- identify, in sniffed data, based on clustering the sniffed data, a signature of rogue data that includes at least a device identifier and an application identifier;
- and
- transmit, via uplink to a satellite, the identified signature to a gateway;
- and the gateway, programmed to:
- block downlink data, upon determining that downlink data includes the received signature;
- and
- broadcast the received signature to a second gateway.
6 more elements
A method, comprising:
- sniffing, at a terminal, at least one of uplink and downlink data;
- identifying, in sniffed data at the terminal, based on clustering the sniffed data, a signature of rogue data that includes at least a device identifier and an application identifier;
- and
- transmitting, via uplink to a satellite, the identified signature to a gateway;
- blocking downlink data, at the gateway, upon determining that downlink data includes the received signature;
- and
- broadcasting the received signature to a second gateway.
