  • Publication number: 20220345472
    Abstract: An enterprise-wise means for determining monitoring requirements for technology resources, such as, software, hardware, firmware, network or the like and implementing the monitoring. Artificial Intelligence (AI) is implemented to determine monitoring requirements based on characteristics of the technology resource that is to be monitored. In this regard, the characteristics of the technology resource serve to define the problem(s), such as cyber threats and/or performance issues that the technology resource currently faces or will face in the future. By determining the monitoring requirements based on the technology resource's characteristics, including the technological environment, the invention serves to describe what needs to be monitored in terms of the problems that the technology resource currently faces or will face.

  • Patent number: 11464292
    Abstract: A stopper for securing an end of a lace in an article having at least one eyelet, such as a shoe, without having to form an exposed knot. A thin, rigid body includes a series of openings arranged in a row, including a first, middle opening through which the lace is routed from the eyelet, a second opening proximate one end through which the lace is routed from the middle opening, and a third opening proximate an opposite through which the lace is routed from the second opening via the first end of the body, the third opening having a slot-shaped configuration. When tension is applied to the lace, as by a foot being inserted into a shoe, a locking engagement is formed between the lace and stopper and the stopper reacts against the eyelet. The stopper may be hidden from view behind the eyelet stay of a shoe.
