  • Patent number: 11665153
    Abstract: Aspects of the disclosure relate to voice biometric authentication in a virtual assistant. In some embodiments, a computing platform may receive, from a user device, an audio file comprising a voice command to access information related to a user account. The computing platform may retrieve one or more voice biometric signatures from a voice biometric database associated with the user account, and apply a voice biometric matching algorithm to compare the voice command of the audio file to the one or more voice biometric signatures to determine if a match exists between the voice command and one of the one or more voice biometric signatures. In response to determining that a match exists, the computing platform may retrieve information associated with the user account, and then send, via the communication interface, the information associated with the user account to the user device.

  • Patent number: 11595416
    Abstract: Disclosed is an improved approach for identifying security risks and breaches in a network by applying machine learning methods that learn resource access patterns in the network. Specifically, by observing the access pattern of the network entities (e.g. accounts, services, and hosts) from authorization requests/responses, the model through unsupervised learning, organizes the entity relationships into an ensemble of hierarchical models. The ensemble of hierarchical models can then be leveraged to create a series of metrics that can be used to identify various types of abnormalities in the access of a resource on the network. For instance, by further classifying the access request for a resource using abnormality scores into detection scenarios, the model is able to detect both an abnormality and the type of abnormality and include such information in a corresponding alarm when a security breach happens.

  • Patent number: 11552933
    Abstract: In an industrial system, a data capture apparatus can be configured to operate as a unidirectional communication connection between a private network and a public network. The data capture apparatus can be further configured to collect raw data from the private network. The raw data can define a data distribution. The data capture apparatus can be further configured, based on the data distribution of the raw data, to generate anonymized or synthetic data that represents the raw data. The anonymized data can be transmitted over the unidirectional communication connection to a receiver machine of the data capture apparatus. In some cases, the receiver machine can send the anonymized data to an analysis system within the public network, such that the raw data can be analyzed by the analysis system, based on the anonymized data that represents the raw data, without the analysis system obtaining the raw data.
