  • Automated security threat testing of web pages
    Patent number: 7975296
    Abstract: A method of security testing a web application is presented. The method identifies a web application to be tested, determines potential security vulnerabilities of the web application, generates one or more security tests for testing the potential vulnerabilities, and executes the security test on the web application. The results of the security testing are then used to make the web application less vulnerable to security attacks.
    Type: Grant

    Date of Patent: July 5, 2011
    Assignee: Oracle International Corporation
    Inventors: Larry Apfelbaum, Henry Houh, Thomas Mayberry, George Friedman
  • Analyzing an extended finite state machine system model
    Patent number: 6853963
    Abstract: A method of using a computer to analyze an extended finite state machine model of a system includes providing a graphical user interface that presents a table of rows, receiving data in at least one table row, and determining at least one path through the states and transitions of the extended finite state machine model using at least one of the rows in the table.

  • Analyzing an extended finite state machine system model
    Patent number: 6694290
    Abstract: A method of using a computer to analyze an extended finite state machine model of a system includes receiving at least one requirement expression, determining at least one path of states and transitions through the model, evaluating at least one of the requirement expressions based on at least one of the determined paths through the model to determine whether the path satisfies the requirement expression, and generating a report based on the evaluating.
