Publication number: 20260012485Abstract: A method of maintaining a pool of network decoys includes evolving, over a plurality of epochs, the pool of network decoys towards one or more preferences of a network attacker. The method includes modeling preferences of the network attacker based on monitored interactions between the network attacker and the pool of network decoys to generate a preference model of the network attacker. Each epoch includes updating a fitness function based on the preference model and applying the fitness function to each network decoy included in the pool of network decoys to determine a plurality of fitness values, where the fitness values are representative of an attractiveness of a respective network decoy to the network attacker. The pool of network decoys is then updated based on the fitness values.Type: ApplicationFiled: August 15, 2024Publication date: January 8, 2026Inventors: Ryan Christopher Gabrys, Daniel Silva, Braulio Ivan Coronado, Mark Bilinski, Rucha Kolhatkar

Publication number: 20260006077Abstract: A system, apparatus, and method to generate decoy honeypots by using generated adversarial networks. In some embodiments, a method for generating decoy honeypots, the steps comprising identifying a plurality of network device configurations on a network; instantiating a generative adversarial network comprising architecture properties; generating a plurality of decoy honeypots with the generative adversarial network, wherein the plurality of decoy honeypots imitate the plurality of network device configurations to deceive malicious actors, and wherein the generative adversarial network optimizes a distribution of the plurality of decoy honeypots according to a precision distribution and a recall distribution; activating the plurality of decoy honeypots to the network; and dynamically evolving the plurality of decoy honeypots towards one or more preferences of a network attacker.Type: ApplicationFiled: December 12, 2024Publication date: January 1, 2026Applicant: The United States of America as represented by the Secretary of the NavyInventors: Mark Bilinski, Ryan Christopher Gabrys, Daniel Silva, Braulio Ivan Coronado

Publication number: 20230318651Abstract: A case for an electronic device, such as a smartphone, has a side with an opening, and an accessory fits the opening. The electronic device has magnetic features with magnetic functions, such as magnetic attachment to accessories including magnetic wallets, mounts, and wireless chargers. The opening is dimensioned to provide accessories with direct access to the magnetic features, the magnetic functions, or the electromagnetic field caused by the magnetic features. The opening has a notch or lever that allows a user to lift the accessory off from the magnetic attachment to the electronic device. The notch can extend from the opening or be a separate hole. A button engages the lever via a spring mechanism that brings the lever to its original position when the button is released. The opening has a wall or sidewall that can be straight, slanted, or curved. The edges of the accessory can be straight, slanted, or curved to match the sidewall of the opening to fit into the opening.Type: ApplicationFiled: March 31, 2022Publication date: October 5, 2023Inventor: Daniel Silva

Publication number: 20190303187Abstract: Software is deployed in a target environment. Source code that is part of a source software package is received from a source environment that is remote from the target environment. The source code is integrated in the target environment into executable binary files using target continuous integration (CI) architecture that is a replica of source CI architecture used to integrate the source code in the source environment. The executable binary files are deployed in the target environment using continuous deployment (CD) architecture that is a replica of source CD architecture used to deploy the source code in the source environment. The target CI architecture and CD architecture are included in containers in the target environment.Type: ApplicationFiled: March 29, 2018Publication date: October 3, 2019Inventors: Jeff Vu, Viral Bhalodia, Daniel Silva, Haiqiao Lin, Samia Fatima Ali

Publication number: 20110071418Abstract: Apparatus and method for diagnosing a source of muscular pain, wherein the apparatus includes a housing, an electrical signal generator mounted within the housing, and a pair of electrodes, one of which is mounted on one end of the housing and the other of which is mounted on an opposite end of the housing. The generator may include either an analog waveform generator or a digital signal processor. Each of the electrodes stimulates a muscle with an electrical signal generated by the generator. One of the electrodes has a relatively small contact area for targeting smaller muscles or muscle groups, while the other electrode has a relatively large contact area for targeting larger muscles or muscle groups. The apparatus is a self-contained, wireless unit and is highly maneuverable, which allows a user to quickly and easily diagnose a source of muscle pain.Type: ApplicationFiled: October 18, 2010Publication date: March 24, 2011Inventors: Ryan M. Stellar, Jeckin Shah, Daniel Silva, Norman J. Marcus

Publication number: 20030225720Abstract: A knowledge-based system enables one knowledge model to generate multiple presentations. A domain expert, thus, can build a hierarchical collection of “knowledge blocks” that fully characterize all aspects of a given domain. Separate presentations of the domain, targeted at different classes of users, can then be created by assembling the knowledge blocks onto web pages. If an aspect of the domain changes, the domain expert need only modify the knowledge blocks, and the presentations that use the modified knowledge blocks are thereby automatically updated. Thus, the user is insulated from the organization of the knowledge model.Type: ApplicationFiled: May 2, 2003Publication date: December 4, 2003Applicant: Authoria, Inc., a Delaware corporationInventors: Timothy S.
