  • Patent number: 11948115
    Abstract: Systems and methods for automatically assessing and monitoring information security effectiveness using collected indicia of sensitive content and indicia of security measure information for a plurality of networked organizational assets/systems to provide respective asset/system value at risk ratings. Elements of the system include automated asset discovery, automated hosting provider and location discovery, collection of information harvested from public sources and, optionally non-public sources, analysis of the collected information against public, non-public, and proprietary sources, and/or mathematical models used to infer broader security program conclusions and to rank asset/system values at risk. Estimates of values at risk are used to prioritize allocation of security measures.

  • Patent number: 8986576
    Abstract: A material consisting essentially of a vinyl thermoplastic polymer, un-functionalized carbon nanotubes and hydroxylated carbon nanotubes dissolved in a solvent. Un-functionalized carbon nanotube concentrations up to 30 wt % and hydroxylated carbon nanotube concentrations up to 40 wt % can be used with even small concentrations of each (less than 2 wt %) useful in producing enhanced conductivity properties of formed thin films.

    Inventors: Gregory O'Bryan, Jack L. Skinner, Andrew Vance, Elaine Lai Yang, Thomas Zifer
  • Patent number: 8728566
    Abstract: The present invention is a method of making a composite polymeric material by dissolving a vinyl thermoplastic polymer, un-functionalized carbon nanotubes and hydroxylated carbon nanotubes and optionally additives in a solvent to make a solution and removing at least a portion of the solvent after casting onto a substrate to make thin films. The material has enhanced conductivity properties due to the blending of the un-functionalized and hydroxylated carbon nanotubes.

  • Publication number: 20120124131
    Abstract: A system and method for analyzing traffic to a website is provided that is based on log files and that uses both server-side and client-side information channeled through one source to create a more complete picture of activity to a website. In one preferred embodiment, a sensor code is embedded in a requested web page, and sends information back to the web server where the website resides. This additional information is logged along with normal requests.
