  • Patent number: 11962469
    Abstract: According to one or more embodiments of the disclosure, an asset inventory service executed by one or more devices receives telemetry data collected passively by a sensor application regarding a node in a network. The asset inventory service requests, after receiving the telemetry data, that the sensor application perform active discovery of nodes in the network. The asset inventory service receives active discovery data collected by the sensor application via active discovery of nodes in the network. The asset inventory service generates, based on the telemetry data and the active discovery data, an identity profile for the node.

  • Patent number: 11941710
    Abstract: According to one or more embodiments of the disclosure, a device obtains one or more System Configuration Description Language files regarding a power utility automation network. The device also obtains traffic data regarding traffic in the power utility automation network. The device trains, using the one or more System Configuration Description Language files and the traffic data, a behavioral model for the power utility automation network that models traffic in the power utility automation network. The device initiates use of the behavioral model in the power utility automation network to identify anomalous traffic behavior in the power utility automation network.
