  • Apparatus and method for identifying related code variants in binaries
    Patent number: 9003529
    Abstract: An apparatus for identifying related code variants may include processing circuitry configured to execute instructions for receiving query binary code, processing the query binary code to generate one or more query code fingerprints comprising compressed representations of respective functional components of the query binary code, comparing the one or more query code fingerprints to at least some reference code fingerprints stored in a database to determine a similarity measure between the one or more query code fingerprints and at least some of the reference code fingerprints, and preparing at least one report based on the similarity measure.
    Type: Grant
    Filed: March 4, 2013
    Date of Patent: April 7, 2015
    Assignee: The Johns Hopkins University
    Inventors: Margaret F. Lospinuso, David M. Patrone, David P. Silberberg, Jonathan D. Cohen, Ryan W. Gardner, Laura J. Glendenning, Sakunthala Harshavardhana, Robert T. Hider, C. Durward McDonell, III, Dennis S. Patrone, Nathan S. Reller, Benjamin R. Salazar

  • Systems and methods for providing higher assurance software construction via aspects
    Patent number: 8276114
    Abstract: There are provided systems and methods for integrating requirements driven security code into an application system. The security code is integrated into an application system in such a way as to make the integrated security code maintainable and traceable as the application system evolves over time.
