Caleb Hightower has filed for patents to protect the following inventions. This listing includes patent applications that are pending as well as patents that have already been granted by the United States Patent and Trademark Office (USPTO).

  • Publication number: 20260057312
    Abstract: An apparatus and method for cyber risk quantification calculated from the likelihood of a cyber-attack on the target enterprise and/or cyber ecosystem based on its security posture. The cyber-attack likelihood can be derived as a probability-based time-to-event (TTE) measure using survivor function analysis. The likelihood probability measure can also be passed to cyber risk frameworks to determine financial impacts of the cyber-attacks. Embodiments of the present invention also relate to an apparatus and method (1) to identify and validate application attack surfaces and protect web applications against business logic-based attacks, sensitive data leakage and privilege escalation attacks; and/or (2) that protects web applications against business logic-based attacks, sensitive data leakage and privilege escalation attacks. This can include implementing an intelligent learning loop using artificial intelligence that creates an ontology-based knowledge base from application request and response sequences.
