Patent number: 10929258Abstract: An embodiment of the present invention is directed to an optimal event-driven anomaly detection scheme. The present invention recognizes that anomaly detection based solely on rules-based (deterministic) or probabilistic analysis alone are insufficient to capture and respond to ever evolving, highly sophisticated threats that tend to persist within a system undetected for long periods of time. According to an embodiment of the present invention, a tiered detection scheme composed of behavioral analysis and machine-learned probabilistic system behaviors provides an optimal level of sensitivity to detect and respond to threats, and further limits the number of false positives identified.Type: GrantFiled: December 21, 2018Date of Patent: February 23, 2021Assignee: INNOVATIVE DEFENSE TECHNOLOGIES, LLCInventors: Bernard Gauf, Michael Bryman, Claire Moore, Samuel Nicoll, David Ponticello

Patent number: 6749831Abstract: Compare core LPS (lacking O-polysaccharide side chains) from Gram-negative bacteria are incorporated into a vaccine typically in liposomes. The complete core of E. coli K 12 is particularly useful. Upon administration to a mammal the vaccine stimulates synthesis of antibodies which are cross-protective against smooth and rough forms of LPS from at least two different Gram-negative bacterial strains having different core structures.Type: GrantFiled: April 25, 2000Date of Patent: June 15, 2004Assignee: Medical Defense Technology, LLCInventors: Elliott Bennett-Guerrero, George Robin Barclay, Ian Raymond Poxton, Thomas James McIntosh, David Scott Snyder

Patent number: 5713150Abstract: A firearm with a firing mechanism having a hammer, a trigger, a semi-automatic disconnector, an automatic sear, and an electro-mechanical movement mechanism for moving the automatic sear. The trigger and semi-automatic disconnector can be used to fire the firearm in a semi-automatic firing mode. The electro-mechanical movement mechanism can control release of the hammer by the automatic sear, but only after a first firing of the firearm by release of the hammer from a mechanical interlock with the trigger. The electro-mechanical movement mechanism has an actuator attached to a piezoelectric member. The piezoelectric member moves the actuator to move the automatic sear between a hammer holding position and a hammer release position.Type: GrantFiled: December 13, 1995Date of Patent: February 3, 1998Assignee: Defense Technologies, LLCInventor: George D.
