Patent number: 9015300Abstract: A method, computer program product, and device for detecting a reconnaissance of a network through the identification of the information flowing from the network to external sources are provided. The method may include monitoring the information flowing from the network to external sources in order to identify what properties may have been revealed to a potential attacker. The method may include monitoring a response of the network to an inquiry from an external source, determining potential properties of the network that may have been revealed from the response, storing the potential properties in a data repository, and determining a possible reconnaissance of the network based on the properties stored in the data repository. Determining the potential properties of the network revealed by the response may include comparing the response to one or more information templates. Each information template may be associated with one or more properties of the network.Type: GrantFiled: October 20, 2006Date of Patent: April 21, 2015Assignee: Verizon Patent and Licensing Inc.Inventor: Carl Marshall Eliot Powell

Patent number: 8487239Abstract: An ion source, a mass spectrometer and a method of enhancing the performance of an ion source for use with a mass spectrometer. The ion source has a housing incorporating an ion source enclosure defining a chamber and an outer cover remote from the chamber. A fluid flow passageway is provided between the ion source enclosure and the outer cover. The method of the invention comprising supplying to the ion source housing a regulated flow of fluid through the fluid passageways so as to maintain the ion source enclosure within a predetermined temperature range of substantially between 60° c. and 80° c. and preferably at 70° c.Type: GrantFiled: May 29, 2009Date of Patent: July 16, 2013Assignee: Micromass UK LimitedInventors: Kevin R. Howes, Eliot Powell, Paul Read

Patent number: 8458491Abstract: A cryptographically scrubbable disk performs erasure of a cryptographic key covering a body of data to render the body of data unintelligible. A scrub controller interfaced between a computing appliance and a storage volume generates a scrub key and encrypts each block of data written to the storage volume using the scrub key. Data read commands decrypt using the same key. The scrub controller is an electronically separate conduit having independent memory and power, thus the scrub key remains within the scrub controller and unexposed, and is thus inaccessible via the processor of the computing appliance. The scrub key remains in the scrub controller such that the scrub key never leaves the scrub controller and is also inaccessible to retrieval since the scrub controller does not share memory or access with the computer and is thus electronically separate from the supported computing appliance.Type: GrantFiled: June 23, 2010Date of Patent: June 4, 2013Assignee: Raytheon BBN Technologies Corp.Inventors: Carl Marshall Eliot Powell, John-Francis Mergen, John G.
