Patent number: 10498744Abstract: This application is directed to an integrity monitoring method performed at a computational machine in a linear communication orbit. The computational machine receives a watch list through the linear communication orbit. The watch list identifies objects for which events are to be monitored at the computational machine. While a plurality of events are occurring locally at the computational machine, the computational machine identifies the plurality of events in real-time. The identified events include events for the objects identified by the watch list, and event information for these identified events is stored in a local database of the computational machine. In response to an integrity reporting request received through the linear communication orbit, the computational machine identifies event information for at least some of the objects identified by the watch list in the local database, and returns the identified event information to a server system through the linear communication orbit.Type: GrantFiled: September 22, 2017Date of Patent: December 3, 2019Assignee: TANIUM INC.Inventors: Christian L. Hunt, Thomas R. Gissel, Aaron Tarter, Daniel Floyd, Benjamin Hobbs, Michael Smith

Patent number: 10482242Abstract: A respective node in a linear communication orbit receives an instruction packet through the linear communication orbit, where the instruction packet has been propagated from a starting node to the respective node through one or more upstream nodes along the linear communication orbit, and the instruction packet includes an instruction for establishing a direct duplex connection between the respective node and a respective server. In response to receiving the instruction packet, the respective node sends an outbound connection request to the respective server to establish the direct duplex connection. The respective node then uploads local data to the respective server through the direct duplex connection (e.g., in response to one or more queries, instructions, and requests received from the respective server through the direct duplex connection), where the respective server performs analysis on the local data received from the respective node through the direct duplex connection.Type: GrantFiled: July 20, 2016Date of Patent: November 19, 2019Assignee: TANIUM INC.Inventors: Christian L.

Patent number: 10095864Abstract: A remote server dispatches an instruction packet to a node in a network through a linear communication orbit formed by a collection of nodes. The instruction packet propagates from node to node along the linear communication orbit until reaching the node. The instruction packet includes instructions for establishing a direct duplex connection between the node and the remote server. After dispatching the instruction packet to the node through the linear communication orbit, the remote server receives, from the node, a request for establishing the direct duplex connection. In response to receiving the request from the node, the remote server establishes the direct duplex connection. After establishing the direct duplex connection, the remote server issues instructions to the node to upload local data from the node to the remote server through the direct duplex connection.Type: GrantFiled: July 20, 2016Date of Patent: October 9, 2018Assignee: TANIUM INC.Inventors: Christian L.
