  • Patent number: 12045584
    Abstract: Software specifications can be improved using a visualization of an undeployed topology. For example, a computing device can receive, in a first portion of a user interface, source code for a software application. The computing device can receive, at a second portion of the user interface, an interaction for generating a topology corresponding to the source code for the software application. The computing device can generate, by a virtualized application programming interface (API) layer, the topology for the software application. The computing device can display, at the user interface, the topology as a visualization of an undeployed version of the software application that represents a deployable topology of the software application.

  • Patent number: 8136588
    Abstract: A running tool for landing and setting a retrievable downhole tool at any location in a well bore includes an inner rod, a running tool anchoring device mounted on the inner rod and controllably reconfigurable between a retracted configuration to permit movement of the tool through the well bore and a radially extended configuration for locking engagement of the running tool with the bore wall, a running tool actuating assembly for effecting reciprocal movement of the reconfiguring the running tool anchoring device to and from the retracted and expanded configurations without interacting with any restrictions or recesses within the well bore, and a resistance device for frictionally engaging the bore wall with sufficient gripping force so as to hold the position of the running tool relative to the well bore during movement of the running tool actuating assembly to and from the first and second configuration upon application of the axial force.

  • Patent number: 7895326
    Abstract: A zone locking system detects unauthorized network usage internal to a firewall. The system determines unauthorized network usage by classifying internal hosts inside a firewall into zones. Certain specified zones are unauthorized to initiate client communications with other selected zones. However, zone override services can be designated for each associated internal zone, and thus, authorizing selected network services. An alarm or other appropriate action is taken upon the detection of unauthorized network usage.

  • Patent number: 7886358
    Abstract: A port profiling system detects unauthorized network usage. The port profiling system analyzes network communications to determine the service ports being used. The system collects flow data from packet headers between two hosts or Internet Protocol (IP) addresses. The collected flow data is analyzed to determine the associated network service provided. A host data structure is maintained containing a profile of the network services normally associated with the host. If the observed network service is not one of the normal network services performed as defined by the port profile for that host, an alarm signal is generated and action can be taken based upon the detection of an Out of Profile network service. An Out of Profile operation can indicate the operation of a Trojan Horse program on the host, or the existence of a non-approved network application that has been installed.
