  • Patent number: 11915203
    Abstract: Embodiments of the present disclosure relate scheduling maintenance services for a special-purpose vehicle. In an exemplary embodiment, a user device comprises a user interface, a processor, and memory comprising instructions that when executed by the processor cause the processor to output, to the user interface, a plurality of service method icons. The plurality of service methods comprise a first service method icon corresponding to a service being performed on the special-purpose vehicle at a first location and a second service method icon corresponding to the service being performed on the special-purpose vehicle at a second location. The first location and the second location are different locations. The memory also comprises instructions that when executed by the processor cause the processor to receive, via the user interface, a selection of a service method icon of the plurality of service method icons and send, to a scheduling server, a signal corresponding to the selected service method icon.

  • Publication number: 20230376592
    Abstract: Systems and methods of sandboxing a file include responsive to receiving a file associated with a user, obtaining policy for the user; analyzing the file with a machine learning model; and based on a combination of the policy for the user and a verdict of the machine learning model, one of quarantining the file for analysis in a sandbox and allowing the file to the user. The present disclosure presents a smart quarantine with a goal of minimizing the number of files quarantined, the number of malicious files passed through to an end user, and a number of files scanned by a sandbox.

  • Publication number: 20230353587
    Abstract: Systems and methods include receiving network transaction data for a plurality of users monitored by a cloud-based system; creating a relationship graph based on the plurality of user's recent network transactions for a time period, wherein the relationship graph includes vertices for domains and edges for transactions by users between the domains having some number of transaction in the time period; and analyzing the relationship graph to detect previously undetected suspicious anomalies. The weights on each edge are based on a relationship between two domains where the relationship includes any of malware, Internet Protocol (IP) addresses, Autonomous System Number (ASN), registration, and redirects.

  • Patent number: 11785022
    Abstract: Systems and methods include obtaining file identifiers associated with files in production data; obtaining lab data from one or more public repositories of malware samples based on the file identifiers for the production data; and utilizing the lab data for training a machine learning process for classifying malware in the production data. The obtaining file identifiers can be based on monitoring of users associated with the files, and only the file identifiers are maintained based on the monitoring. The lab data can include samples from the one or more public repositories matching the corresponding file identifiers for the production data. The lab data can include samples from the one or more public repositories that have features closely related to features of the production data.
