Patents by Inventor James Irwin Ebeling

James Irwin Ebeling 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: 20240354401
    Abstract: A graphical user interface (GUI) for presentation of network security risk and threat information is disclosed. A listing is generated of incidents identified by use of event data obtained from a networked computing environment. A particular incident is determined to be associated with a risk object, wherein a risk object is a component of the networked computing environment. The listing is populated with a name associated with the risk object. Risk events associated with the incident are determined, wherein each risk event contributes to a risk score for the incident. The risk score indicates a potential security issue associated with the risk object. The listing is populated with the risk score and a summary of the events. An action is associated with the listing, for triggering display of additional information associated with the risk object. The listing can be displayed in a first display screen of the GUI.

  • Patent number: 11805144
    Abstract: Security related anomalies in the data related to network entities are identified, and a risk score is assigned to each entity based on the anomalies. Visualization data is generated for a color-coded interactive visualization. Generating the visualization data includes assigning each entity to a separate polygon to be displayed concurrently on a display screen; selecting a size of each polygon to indicate one of: a number of security related anomalies associated with the entity, or a risk level assigned to the entity, where the risk level is based on the risk score of the entity, and selecting a color of each polygon to indicate the other one of: the number of security related anomalies associated with the entity, or the risk level assigned to the entity; and causing, the color-coded interactive visualization to be displayed on a display device based on the visualization data.
