Abstract
Systems and methods for scanning signatures in a string field. In one implementation, the invention provides a method for string signature scanning. The method includes processing one or more signatures into one or more formats, receiving a string field, translating the string field into one of the one or more formats of a signature database, identifying any string signatures included in the string field including scanning the string field for one or more fingerprints associated with string signatures, and outputting any identified string signatures.
