Abstract
Disclosed herein are techniques for securing a real time communication session between at least two computing devices. Operations may include monitoring the communication session between the at least two computing devices associated with an organizational communication security service, validating, by the organizational communication security service, the communication session, determining, by the organizational communication security service, a security status of the communication session based on the real-time validation of the communication session, and performing, by the organizational communication security service, a security action based on the security status.
Claims26
A non-transitory computer readable medium including instructions that, when executed by at least one processor, cause the at least one processor to perform operations for securing a real time communication session between at least two computing devices, the operations comprising:
- monitoring the communication session between the at least two computing devices associated with an organizational communication security service;
- validating, by the organizational communication security service, the communication session based on an analysis of content of the communication session and at least one of:
- data from an agent installed on at least one of the at least two computing devices, a comparison to a communication profile associated with at least one network identity participating in the communication session, or at least one secret associated with the at least one network identity participating in the communication session;
- determining, by the organizational communication security service, a security status of the communication session based on the real-time validation of the communication session;
- and
- performing, by the organizational communication security service, a security action based on the security status.
A computer implemented method for securing a real time communication session between at least two computing devices, the operations comprising:
- monitoring the communication session between the at least two computing devices associated with an organizational communication security service;
- validating, by the organizational communication security service, the communication session based on an analysis of content of the communication session and at least one of:
- data from an agent installed on at least one of the at least two computing devices, a comparison to a communication profile associated with at least one network identity participating in the communication session, or at least one secret associated with the at least one network identity participating in the communication session;
- determining, by the organizational communication security service, a security status of the communication session based on the real-time validation of the communication session;
- and
- performing, by the organizational communication security service, a security action based on the security status.
A computer implemented method for securing a real time communication session between at least two computing devices, the operations comprising:
- receiving, by an organizational identity service comprising a plurality of pre-registered network identities associated with an organization, data from a software agent associated with a communication application running on a computing device associated with at least one of the plurality of pre-registered network identities, the data corresponding to a real-time communication session being performed between at least two network identities associated with the organizational identity service;
- identifying, by the organizational identity service, an authentication request from a first participant of the communication session, wherein the authentication request comprises selecting a name, a role, or a picture of a second participant of the communication session through a graphical user interface associated with the communication application;
- triggering, based on the authentication request, a prompt associated with a security policy of the organization to authenticate the second participant of the communication session during the communication session;
- displaying, through a graphical user interface associated with the first participant, a response to the authentication request.
