  • Patent number: 11805097
    Abstract: A network security platform (NSP) device and interaction method are disclosed. The interaction method provides network packet analysis for secure transmission protocols using ephemeral keys or keys that are negotiated dynamically. The NSP may be part of an Intrusion Protection System, or firewall. The disclosed approach does not use man-in-the-middle proxy. Instead, it includes monitoring connections ends: client and/or server, to intercept the required data or negotiated (or changed) encryption keys. Decrypted data may be sent to an NSP sensor in a secure manner for analysis. Alternatively, intercepted keys used for the encrypt/decrypt operations may be sent to an NSP sensor in a secure manner every time they are changed. The NSP sensor may then use the obtained keys to decrypt traffic prior to providing it to the inspection engines. Embodiments focused on inbound traffic to a web server may coordinate between a web server and an NSP.

  • Publication number: 20230099325
    Abstract: An incident management system for enterprise operations is disclosed. The system 100 includes an operational details collection module 110, a data processing module 120, an operational details analysis module 130, an anomaly detection module 140 and an incident recognition module 150 including an incident cause analysis sub-module 155 and an incident cause description sub-module 160. The system 100 collects enterprise operational details from an operational database, analyzes huge volumes of logs, KPIs, traces, and IT asset relationships using proprietary machine learning techniques to identify one or more abnormal patterns, one or more hidden issues, one or more cross-domain performance issues, and one or more unusual system behaviors. Also, the system correlates, in real-time, with a huge volume of logs, KPIs, and IT system topologies to understand the relationship between different symptoms and problems at the machine's speed to arrive at a root cause and impacts.

  • Publication number: 20220286720
    Abstract: Systems and methods for switching from a linearly distributed live content and/or internet stream to other contents are provided by aligning timing between contents. Break points may be programmed between diverse non-time synced source encoder of the respective contents to facilitate switching between contents. A first linear stream is caused to be provided. A switchover time to a second linear stream is then identified. The second linear stream is caused to be provided at the switchover time. In different embodiments, switching may occur between different number of contents using the described systems and methods. One or more streaming contents may be up-converted and/or down-converted in different streaming systems.

  • Publication number: 20210351918
    Abstract: A first example network security platform disclosed herein is to store a cryptographic session key from a server, the cryptographic session key associated with an encrypted network traffic flow between the server and a client different from the first network security platform. This disclosed first example network security platform is also to access a query from a second network security platform requesting the cryptographic session key, and generate a response including the cryptographic session key to send to the second network security platform.

  • Patent number: 11070363
    Abstract: A first example network security platform disclosed herein includes a platform selector to determine a platform selection value based on a first parameter value in a first message from a client and a second parameter value in a second message from a server, the first and second messages associated with establishment of an encrypted network traffic flow between the client and the server. The example first network security platform also includes a key retriever to obtain a cryptographic session key associated with the encrypted network traffic flow from a selected one of a cluster of network security platforms based on the platform selection value, the first network security platform included in the cluster of network security platforms. The example first network security platform further includes a traffic analyzer to analyze network traffic associated with the encrypted network traffic flow based on the cryptographic session key.

  • Patent number: 10606809
    Abstract: A server enforces a policy for selecting what received change to process. The non-selected changes are not processed by the server. Instead, after the selected change is processed and is incorporated into the current version of the text, the server sends an update to each of the clients indicating the change made to the current version of text. A client performs a conflict resolution procedure when its change was not processed by the server. The conflict resolution procedure detects the differences between the updated text version and its text change that was not accepted by the server and uses the differences to deduce the intent of the user and come up with a merged version of the text which preserves the intent and avoids data loss. The updated version is then sent back to the server to update the current version of the text.
