REVERSING SYMMETRIC ENCRYPTIONS USING KEYS FOUND IN SNAPSHOTS - PER-FILE KEYS, RANDOM AND TRANSMITTED OUTSIDE - A simplified explanation of the abstract
This abstract first appeared for US patent application 18297118 titled 'REVERSING SYMMETRIC ENCRYPTIONS USING KEYS FOUND IN SNAPSHOTS - PER-FILE KEYS, RANDOM AND TRANSMITTED OUTSIDE
The abstract of this patent application describes a method that involves identifying a process with both a write operation and a transmit operation. The write operation involves performing a malicious process on data to render it unusable to the data owner, while the transmit operation involves sending the data after it has been affected by the malicious process. A snapshot operation is then performed to create a copy of the data after it has been acted upon by the malicious process, and the data is intercepted before or during the transmit operation.
- Identifying a process with a write operation and a transmit operation

Original Abstract Submitted
One example method includes identifying a process that includes both a write operation and a transmit operation, wherein the write operation comprises performing a malicious process on data that renders the data unusable to an owner of the data, and the transmit operation comprises transmitting the data after the data has been acted upon by the malicious process, performing a snapshot operation to create a snapshot that comprises a copy of the data after the data has been acted upon by the malicious process and/or while the data is being acted upon by the malicious process, and intercepting the data before, or while, the transmit operation is performed.
