Patent number: 11893096Abstract: Systems and methods are described herein for computer user authentication using machine learning. Authentication for a user is initiated based on an identification confidence score of the user. The identification confidence score is based on one or more characteristics of the user. Using a machine learning model for the user, user activity of the user is monitored for anomalous activity to generate first data. Based on the monitoring, differences between the first data and historical utilization data for the user determine whether the user's utilization of the one or more resources is anomalous. When the user's utilization of the one or more resource is anomalous, the user's access to the one or more resource is removed.Type: GrantFiled: December 2, 2021Date of Patent: February 6, 2024Assignee: Cylance Inc.Inventors: Garret Florian Grajek, Jeffrey Lo, Michael Thomas Wojnowicz, Dinh Huu Nguyen, Michael Alan Slawinski

Patent number: 11709922Abstract: Data is received as part of an authentication procedure to identify a user. Such data characterizes a user-generated biometric sequence that is generated by the user interacting with at least one input device according to a desired biometric sequence. Thereafter, using the received data and at least one machine learning model trained using empirically derived historical data generated by a plurality of user-generated biometric sequences (e.g., historical user-generated biometric sequences according to the desired biometric sequence, etc.), the user is authenticated if an output of the at least one machine learning model is above a threshold. Data can be provided that characterizes the authenticating. Related apparatus, systems, techniques and articles are also described.Type: GrantFiled: April 29, 2020Date of Patent: July 25, 2023Assignee: Cylance Inc.Inventors: Garret Florian Grajek, Jeffrey Lo, Homer Valentine Strong, Wulun Dai

Publication number: 20090094325Abstract: A global multimedia server, local multimedia server and multimedia client create a universal communication system allowing any consumer to engage a plethora of media content to any end user. The global media server may be located through a publicly accessible IP address using a FQDN (fully qualified domain name) based on DNS. The delivery of multimedia calls or messages may also be achieved by using an E.164 number as universal resource identifier. PBX features allow for the manipulation of multimedia content and the use of mixed and multiple media during a communication or the creation of spontaneous or scheduled conferences that are both collaborative and interactive.Type: ApplicationFiled: October 9, 2008Publication date: April 9, 2009Inventors: Snehal Karia, Jeffrey Lo, Dickson Chan, Satish Salagame, Danny W.

Publication number: 20060218338Abstract: A method for preventing software from being wrongly burned is proposed, such that the software can be correctly burned into a storage unit of a device utilizing and corresponding to the software, so as to provide normal operation of the software. First, both of the software and the storage unit are provided with a recognition code corresponding to the foregoing device. Then, it is determined whether the recognition code of the software is consistent with that of the storage unit before performing a burning process. If the codes are consistent, then the software is burned into the storage unit, whereas if the codes are inconsistent, then the burning process is not performed. Accordingly, in the present invention, the recognition code corresponding to the device is simultaneously provided to the software and the storage unit and the recognition codes are compared before performing the burning process. The burning process is performed only if the recognition codes are consistent.Type: ApplicationFiled: March 23, 2005Publication date: September 28, 2006Applicant: Inventec CorporationInventor: Jeffrey Lo

Publication number: 20060195833Abstract: A data-burning method and system thereof based on auto-detection of computer platform are proposed. The method and system is applicable to a computer platform main unit, wherein the computer platform main unit has a programmable memory unit thereon, so as to burn a set of digital data into the programmable memory unit. The present invention is characterized in that different types of computer platforms can be automatically detected to enable corresponding digital data be burned into the programmable memory unit provided on the computer platform main units. Therefore, burning of an incorrect BIOS programming data code onto the computer platform as a result of human error is prevented, so that reliability and fabrication efficiency of a computer main system circuit board can be improved.Type: ApplicationFiled: February 25, 2005Publication date: August 31, 2006Applicant: Inventec CorporationInventor: Jeffrey Lo

Patent number: 5632656Abstract: A surface mount box including a substrate and a cover is disclosed. The substrate has four side walls on a rectangular base. Coupling means are formed on exterior surfaces of two of the side walls to connect with other surface mount boxes for expansion. An opening on one of the side walls provides a passage for a transmission line to go into the surface mount box. Another opening is formed on one of the side walls to receive a connector port. The cover has a number of coupling elements and a plug on a base plate. When the cover is fastened to the substrate by the coupling elements, the plug inserts into the opening for the transmission line and confines the transmission line within a small region.Type: GrantFiled: October 30, 1995Date of Patent: May 27, 1997Inventor: Jeffrey Lo
