  • Patent number: 10592938
    Abstract: In an illustrative embodiment, systems and methods for cyber vulnerability assessment include obtaining assessment data including information pertaining to domains of cyber security vulnerability of an enterprise and, for each security domain, a respective domain-level vulnerability score, identifying risk(s) relevant to the enterprise based on domain-level vulnerability score(s), identifying recommended products or services for mitigating each of the risks, and preparing a graphical user interface for selecting a portion of the recommended products or services. A user may select one or more products or services through the user interface for purchase and/or deployment planning. The domain-level vulnerability scores may be compared to peer vulnerabilities scores, target vulnerability scores, or prospective vulnerability scores based upon application of certain recommended products or services.

  • Patent number: 10528609
    Abstract: This disclosure describes, in part, techniques for performing automatic document analysis. For instance, one or more computing devices may obtain a plurality of documents for analysis. The one or more computing devices may then analyze the documents to determine a respective comparative breadth score representing a breadth of each document, a respective comparative portion count score representing a number of documents portions included in each document, and a respective comparative differentiation score representing differentiation between the documents portions included in each document. In some instances, the one or more computing devices determine each of the scores based on comparing the respective breadth, respective number of document portions, and respective differentiation for each of the documents under analysis. The one or more computing devices can then determine a comprehensive score for each document using the respective scores, and generate a user interface that includes the overall scores.

  • Patent number: 10417592
    Abstract: A risk exposure model is developed for network or moveable assets not specific to a single, fixed address or location. An asset map using a plurality of geographic representation points is used to identify the physical locations of the asset portions (or possible physical locations in the case of a moveable asset). Baseline geographic, geologic, political, and demographic data is similarly represented using geographic representation points. Meta-data associated with each geographic representation point is used to identify details related to the asset or baseline feature at that geographic location. Risk exposure values are then calculated using the geographic representation points specific to the asset portions that are subject to risks associated with the location of the asset portion.

  • Patent number: 10387414
    Abstract: A computing system and platform uses various types of data stores to allow efficient querying of, and accelerated access to, extremely large data sets. One such data store is a dimension store that combines key-value and columnar stores, access to which is provided by several selectable mechanisms chosen based the nature of the data of interest. These include bitmap-based access, us of an optimized columnar data format, and access via namespace identifiers. A compressed, optimized page data format is provided for storing and analyzing large fact-based data. The complex dimension store is used to provide complex relationships and interpretation of the fact-based data, enabling high-performance advanced queries, with bitmap indexes passed between the two stores. Dimension data is stored in an encrypted manner throughout the system, and can be exchanged among parties in a secure manner.

  • Patent number: 10366461
    Abstract: Manual human processing of documents often generates results that are subjective and include human-error. The cost and relatively slow speed of manual, human analysis makes it effectively impossible or impracticable to perform document analysis at the scale, speed, and cost desired in many industries. Accordingly, it may be advantageous to employ objective, accurate rule-based techniques to evaluate and process documents. This application discloses data processing equipment and methods specially adapted for a specific application: analysis of the breadth of documents. The processing may include context-dependent pre-processing of documents and sub-portions of the documents. The sub-portions may be analyzed based on word count and commonality of words in the respective sub-portions. The equipment and methods disclosed herein improve upon other automated techniques to provide document processing by achieving a result that quantitatively improves upon manual, human processing.

  • Patent number: 10349355
    Abstract: A mobile device includes an inertial sensor generating inertia signals based upon motion of the mobile device. The mobile device further includes a high power module that consumes more power than the inertial sensor. A processor is programmed to determine whether the mobile device is being carried by a user who is walking based upon the inertia signals. The processor deactivates the high power module or maintains the high power module in a low power mode based upon a determination that the mobile device is being carried by a user who is walking.
