    Abstract: A method of identifying cryptocurrency mining on a networked computerized device includes intercepting network traffic between the networked computerized device and a public network, and extracting Internet Protocol (IP) packet data of the intercepted network traffic. The IP packet data of the intercepted network traffic is evaluated such that if the intercepted network traffic is determined to be characteristic of communication with a cryptocurrency mining pool it is determined that the networked computerized device is mining cryptocurrency. One or more remedial actions are taken if it is determined that the networked computerized device is mining cryptocurrency, such as blocking traffic between the networked computerized device and the mining pool or notifying a user.

    Abstract: A method for enabling website access is provided. The method includes detecting an attempt to access a particular website by a computing device via a network, the particular website including one or more webpages, and accessing a particular data privacy policy for the particular website. Scores of the particular data privacy policy are determined based on text of the particular data privacy policy, and a particular multidimensional coordinate is determined based on the scores of the particular data privacy policy. A map including the particular multidimensional coordinate is displayed via the computing device. An instruction from a user is received via the computing device to enable accessing of the particular website, and the accessing by the computing device of the particular website is enabled in response to the instruction from the user.
