  • Patent number: 11455029
    Abstract: The application relates to an apparatus, method and computer program for adjusting output signals. The apparatus comprising means for receiving at least a first measurement signal from a first movement sensor and receiving at least a second measurement signal from a second movement sensor wherein the first movement sensor and the second movement sensor are provided on the same structure. The means are also for identifying one or more correlations between the measurement signals and using the identified one or more correlations to adjust at least one output signal provided by at least one detector.
    Type: Grant

  • Publication number: 20220035899
    Abstract: An apparatus, method and computer program is described comprising: receiving (41) a control signal from a user-operated control apparatus for controlling a remote apparatus, extracting (42) a user noise signal from the received control signal, determining (43) if the user noise signal meets one or more predetermined criteria and authenticating (44) a user of the control apparatus at least partially based on the user noise signal determination.

  • Patent number: 11165829
    Abstract: A method for protection of virtualized network functions may comprise: obtaining security orchestration information for one or more virtualized network functions; determining network interfaces relevant to protection of the one or more virtualized network functions based at least in part on network topology information, in response to the security orchestration information; and issuing a security instruction for the protection of the one or more virtualized network functions, according to the determined network interfaces.

  • Patent number: 10986067
    Abstract: A network apparatus of a communication system classifies traffic flows containing packets based on packet features. The network apparatus provides a copy of a packet contained in a traffic flow to a cluster node, and controls the cluster node to select at least one detector node based on the features of the packet and to forward said copy to the selected detector node to find out based on said copy whether the packet is malicious or not. In response to receiving from the detector node a flow indication on the traffic flow, the network apparatus controls a switch node to perform at least one flow control action on the traffic flow, the action including one or more of flow removal, flow modification and flow installation.

  • Patent number: 10602396
    Abstract: This document discloses a solution for detecting and mitigating anomalies such as signalling storms in a radio access network of a wireless communication system. According to an aspect, there is disclosed a method including receiving, in a first local traffic analysis module, configuration parameters from a second local traffic analysis module or from a central traffic analysis module connected to a plurality of local traffic analysis modules; monitoring, by a first traffic analysis module by using the received configuration parameters, traffic in a radio access network of a wireless communication system; detecting, in the monitored traffic on the basis of the configuration parameters, an anomaly causing a control plane signalling load; and in response to said detecting, taking an action to mitigate the anomaly and reporting information on the anomaly to the central traffic analysis module.

  • Publication number: 20190372939
    Abstract: There are provided measures for malicious network activity mitigation. Such measures exemplarily comprise determining a boundary enclosing a first group of target virtual network functions including at least one target virtual network function, identifying, on the basis of said boundary, a first group of communication paths between said first group of target virtual network functions and respective network entities outside said boundary, said first group of communication paths including a first communication path, and initiating setup of a first wrapper virtual network function corresponding to said first communication path, said first wrapper virtual network function monitoring network traffic on said first communication path.
