  • Patent number: 11818155
    Abstract: Embodiments presented herein describe a method for processing streams of data of one or more networked computer systems. According to one embodiment of the present disclosure, an ordered stream of normalized vectors corresponding to information security data obtained from one or more sensors monitoring a computer network is received. A neuro-linguistic model of the information security data is generated by clustering the ordered stream of vectors and assigning a letter to each cluster, outputting an ordered sequence of letters based on a mapping of the ordered stream of normalized vectors to the clusters, building a dictionary of words from of the ordered output of letters, outputting an ordered stream of words based on the ordered output of letters, and generating a plurality of phrases based on the ordered output of words.

  • Patent number: 11816221
    Abstract: Systems and methods for leveraging smart glasses for identifying vulnerabilities in application source code is provided. The smart glasses may be configured to scan the code from a user interface (“UI”) linked to an internal development platform and project the scanned code on a display of the smart glasses. Using deep learning, the smart glasses may be enabled to identify one or more vulnerabilities within the scanned application source code. The smart glasses may link a vulnerability classification code for each identified vulnerability. The smart glasses may generate a vulnerability report file including the scanned application source code, each identified vulnerability and its linked vulnerability classification code and transfer the vulnerability report file to a source code repository within the internal development platform. The scanned application source code may be matched to the original application source code and further separate the marched original application source code for assessment.

  • Patent number: 11757908
    Abstract: The technology disclosed works in real time, as base and subordinate HTTP URL requests are received, to attribute subordinate HTTP URL requests to base web pages. The main case uses the “referer” or “referrer” HTTP header field for attribution, directly and through a referer hierarchy to the base web page. A second case, which minimizes false generation of base web page log entries, involves small files, such as cascading style sheets (CSS) files, that often have a blank or no referer field. The technology disclosed applies equivalently to hypertext transfer protocol secure (HTTPS) data (e.g., HTTPS transactions, requests, and/or events).

  • Patent number: 11757917
    Abstract: The disclosure provides an approach for detecting and preventing attacks in a network. Embodiments include receiving network traffic statistics of a system. Embodiments include determining a set of features of the system based on the network traffic statistics. Embodiments include inputting the set of features to a classification model that has been trained using historical features associated with labels indicating whether the historical features correspond to attacks. Embodiments include receiving, as output from the classification model, an indication of whether the system is a target of an attack. Embodiments include receiving additional statistics related to the system. Embodiments include analyzing, in response to the indication that the system is the target of the attack, the additional statistics to identify a source of the attack. Embodiments include performing an action to prevent the attack based on the source of the attack.

  • Patent number: 11754405
    Abstract: An approach is provided for probe trajectory anonymization using based on a negative gap. The approach involves, for example, receiving a probe trajectory generated from at least one sensor of a probe device. The approach also involves processing the probe trajectory to segment the probe trajectory into a first subtrajectory and a second subtrajectory based on a negative gap between the first subtrajectory and the second subtrajectory. The negative gap specifies an amount of overlap between the end of the first subtrajectory and the beginning of the second subtrajectory. The approach further involves assigning a first pseudonym (e.g., a first new probe identifier) to the first subtrajectory, and a second pseudonym (e.g., a second new probe identifier) to the second subtrajectory. The approach then involves providing the first subtrajectory and the second subtrajectory as a trajectory anonymization output.
