  • Publication number: 20230370324
    Abstract: An exemplary method, for solving a problem with a network element within a network, includes first selecting a first set of pre-existing bots and first executing at least some of the selected first set of bots to change the network element and/or the network to solve the problem. The method further includes conducting a root cause analysis to generate recommendation(s) to correct the problem and in response to the first executing failing to solve the problem: second selecting, based on the recommendation(s), a second set of pre-existing bots to change the network element and/or the network to solve the problem, and second executing at least some of the selected second set of bots to solve the problem. Subsequently, the method includes generating, in response to the second executing failing to solve the problem, instructions to manually change the network element and/or the network to solve the problem.

  • Publication number: 20230367668
    Abstract: A method is provided in an example embodiment and may include receiving information identifying an anomaly or a predicted outage of a component of a system and requesting a data service for buffered data generated by the component within a timeframe of receiving the information. The method further may include normalizing the buffered data into discrete time units into corresponding distinct units of time and analyzing the buffered data using a machine learning (ML) model to identify a root cause of the anomaly or the predicted outage. The method further may include identifying at least one solution to the identified root cause based on characteristics associated with the root cause of the anomaly or the predicted outage and providing the at least one solution to an automation component to avoid onset of an event that triggers outage of the component or the system.

  • Publication number: 20230370350
    Abstract: An exemplary method, for preventing an outage in a network, includes collecting network metrics and producing statistical features of the network during a predetermined time window based on statistical analysis of the collected metrics. The method further includes selecting, from the produced statistical features, a first data set of relevant statistical features. Further, the method includes collecting information about a past event, extracting event data from the past event, and vectorizing the extracted event data to form a second data set. The method further includes concatenating the first data set and the second data set to form a third data set and classifying the third data set relative to a model of historical network performance to determine a probability of the outage. Further, the method includes modifying, in response to the probability being above a threshold, the network/activity within the network to avoid onset of the outage.

  • Patent number: 10348740
    Abstract: Various embodiments of the present disclosure can include systems, methods, and non-transitory computer readable media configured to aggregate a plurality of threat signatures from a plurality of threat signature data sources. The bit stream data is analyzed, based on the plurality of threat signatures, to detect a first threat in the bit stream data. A result of analyzing the bit stream data is logged as threat analysis log data. The threat analysis log data is analyzed to detect a second threat in the bit stream data. The threat analysis log data may be analyzed based on a heuristic. An action is triggered based on analysis of the bit stream data, or based on heuristic analysis of the threat analysis log data.

  • Patent number: 9412071
    Abstract: Methods, mediums, and systems are described for providing a platform coupled to one or more rules engines. The platform may provide runtime rule services to one or more applications. Different rules engines may be used for different types of rules, such as calculations, decisions, process control, transformation, and validation. Rules engines can be added, removed, and reassigned to the platform. When the platform receives a request for services from an application, the platform selects one of the rules engines to handle the request and instructs the selected rules engine to execute the rule. The rules engine may be selected automatically. The platform may be implemented through a service-oriented architecture.

  • Patent number: 8069062
    Abstract: Methods and systems are provided for estimating liability in an accident. In an embodiment, the liability estimate may include a base liability and one or more adjustments due to various factors. The base liability may be determined from characteristics including: the configuration of the roadway, the type of accident, right of way, and impact points of each vehicle. The adjustments due to various factors may be determined from conditions of vehicles in the accident, conditions of drivers in the accident, actions of drivers in the accident, and/or environmental conditions in the accident. In one embodiment, a base liability adjusted due to the various factors may exceed a predefined upper or lower bound of liability. In such a case, an absolute liability value may be assigned as the liability estimate.
