  • Patent number: 10333971
    Abstract: A system (100) for detecting and preventing cyber-threats is disclosed. The system (100) can include an online-analytical-processing (OLAP) resource (102) coupled to a data mining engine (104), a reporting resource (106) and a processor (108). The processor (108) can run instructions stored within an extract-transform-load (ETL) module (112). The ETL module (112) can enable the processor (108) to extract one or more data tuples various data sources (110). The ETL module (112) can enable the processor to transform the extracted tuple(s).

  • Publication number: 20160134748
    Abstract: The invention generally relates to systems, devices, and methods for testing communication lines. In certain aspects, the invention provides systems and devices that include a digital/analog converter configured to operate with a computer processor and memory to send or receive an analog signal over a communication line that includes a plurality of signals having known frequencies. Inbound receiving sub-systems or devices sample the analog signal and measure a quality of the sampled, digital signal to evaluate the communication line. The key differentiator is the recognition that the human mouth and ear are intrinsically analog without encryption. By locating the test device as close to the user as possible, this system incorporates testing of complex communication streams including numerous variables and transforms (e.g. encryption, Analog to digital, Voice over IP, packet switching, ATM, SONET). Ultimately, it provides a simple interface to convert qualitative analysis to quantitative (numerical) analysis.

  • Patent number: 5333618
    Abstract: The instrument consists of a hollow elongated cylindrical housing having a stimulator circuit and a receptor circuit disposed therein. Stimulator leads are connected to the stimulator circuit and receptor leads are connected to the receptor circuit. The housing includes a display means and a stimulator circuit activator switch. The stimulator leads are connected to stimulator electrodes mounted at a first position on the patient, and the receptor leads are connected to receptor electrodes mounted at a second position on the patient. The first position is spaced from the second position and the first and second positions are disposed along the path of a nerve of the patient. The suspected damaged portion of the nerve is between the first and second positions. The stimulator circuit activator switch is activated so that a stimulator pulse is applied, via the stimulator leads and the stimulator electrodes, to the nerve at the first position.
