Patent number: 10332210Abstract: Improved computer modeling techniques, and uses thereof, are described herein. A set of unstructured textual data is received. Certain textual data is removed from the set of unstructured data to form an initial vocabulary set of textual data. One or more bigrams are added to the vocabulary set of textual data to form a final vocabulary set of textual data. The final vocabulary set of textual data is divided into a plurality of subsets of textual data based on type. A model is trained using each of the plurality of subsets of textual data to form a plurality of trained models, each corresponding to one of the types.Type: GrantFiled: November 6, 2014Date of Patent: June 25, 2019Assignee: Nationwide Mutual Insurance CompanyInventors: John Kemp, Spencer Herath, Thomas Michael Winningham, Shannon Terry, Christopher P.

Patent number: 10277619Abstract: The invention relates to detecting vulnerabilities in technology infrastructure environments. Data describing vulnerabilities detected in a technological environment of an enterprise is obtained. The vulnerability data is combined with data relating to servers, applications associated with the servers, and business functions associated with the applications, within the technological environment of the enterprise in order to create enriched data. The enriched data is enhanced using one or more of the following processes: deduplicating records in the enriched data; modifying of a severity assigned to vulnerabilities based on one or more enterprise-infrastructure factors; archiving and purging of records included in the enriched data; consolidating IP addresses associated with the vulnerabilities; excepting records in the enriched data for vulnerabilities undergoing active remediation; and validating the enriched data. After the enriched data is enhanced, it may be sorted in accordance with one or more filters.Type: GrantFiled: April 27, 2016Date of Patent: April 30, 2019Assignee: Nationwide Mutual Insurance CompanyInventors: David B. Clark, II, Kevin J. Sullivan, Jane L M Kuberski, Paul J. Melko, Jr., Narayanasamy Balakrishnan, Koen Klaas Kuiken, Travis Ray Lenocker, Zachary J. Eyen, Shad Cummins, Daniel W. David

Patent number: 10019468Abstract: Methods and systems for processing and integrating data. A data file containing data describing a source transaction, associated with an identifier, is received. A type of the source transaction is identified based on a key indicator associated with the data file. The data contained in the data file is mapped to an object model based on the type of the source transaction identified. Output transaction objects are created by processing the data contained in the data file, mapped to the object model, using business rules. The business rules are selected based on a type of the object model. The output transaction objects are received and matched to the source transaction. A target system to receive the output transaction objects is identified based on the identifier associated with the data file.Type: GrantFiled: February 22, 2013Date of Patent: July 10, 2018Assignee: Nationwide Mutual Insurance CompanyInventors: David Day, Carey Nash
