Abstract: A method of determining an adversarial attack playbook includes receiving, from an adversarial actor, an electronic communication intended for a target user. The method includes engaging in a deep dialog with the adversarial actor by deploying a synthetic persona dynamically during the electronic communication. The deep dialog includes multiple rounds of communication exchanges. The method includes determining a length and type of the deep dialog to obtain attributes related to the adversarial actor. The method includes identifying a conversational pattern from the deep dialog. The conversational pattern comprises dialog interaction elements utilized by the adversarial actor. The method includes dynamically producing, based on the conversational pattern, the playbook associated with the adversarial actor. The playbook is indicative of a dialog interaction strategy implemented by the adversarial actor.

Abstract: A target stand has a generally level bottom surface having at least one protrusion or cavity sized and shaped to leave an impression in an impressionable surface and a top surface having a plurality of wells configured to receive target supports. The plurality of wells may be configured to receive wooden stakes. The one or more protrusions or cavities may be shaped like animals or animal feet, such as pig's feet. The one or more protrusions may be sized and shaped to leave impressions of letters in the impressionable surface.

Abstract: A conformable target mount for use on a shooting range is easily transported and assembled without tools or hardware. The conformable target mount includes a target pattern printed directly on a foldable cardboard backing that can be formed into various configurations for attachment to standard size supports. Alternatively, the conformable target mount can be folded for use as a stand-alone support having tabs that fold into stake pockets, sealable with built-in peel-off tapes. A conformable target mount can be easily exchanged on the support by simply lifting the stake pockets off the stakes and lowering a different conformable target mount in its place. Alternatively, the tapes can be used to attach the conformable target mount to a supporting object. The conformable target mount can be over-sized, suitable for use in police or military training. The conformable target mounts also include carrying handles.

Abstract: Compositions and methods are disclosed for use of ethyl pyruvate to boost energy, endurance, or to feel good, or to lose weight. Pharmaceutical preparations having ethyl pyruvate are disclosed herein as well.

Abstract: This invention uses probabilistic correlation techniques to increase sensitivity, reduce false alarms, and improve alert report quality in intrusion detection systems. In one preferred embodiment, an intrusion detection system includes at least two sensors to monitor different aspects of a computer network, such as a sensor that monitors network traffic and a sensor that discovers and monitors available network resources. The sensors are correlated in that the belief state of one sensor is used to update or modify the belief state of another sensor. In another embodiment of this invention, probabilistic correlation techniques are used to organize alerts generated by different sensors in an intrusion detection system.

Abstract: A “one-step” process for production of peptides and other organic molecules which are both esters and also acetylated forms of the desired molecule. The ester may be a mono-ester, di-ester, or another poly-ester, complexed with a molecule for protecting the organic molecules in the digestive tract. The method allows simple adjustment of the delivery properties of the peptides produced, in particular adjustment or addition of lipiphilic tendencies. A therapeutic or nutrient made by this method comprises acetylated organic molecule esters, in particular an acetylated peptide ester or even an acetylated amino acid ester and demonstrates improved metabolic properties leading to increased efficiency for therapeutic and cosmetic purposes including oral, transdermal, sublingual, buccal, and topical administration.

Abstract: A practical high potency anti-craving medication is disclosed which comprises three components: an amino-acid component, a vitamin component, and a mineral component, wherein each component is selected for maximum efficacy in the body of an individual suffering from substance abuse disorder as opposed to the body of a healthy individual. Additionally, the active agents are received by means of a prolonged administration, preferably by means of an IV drip, thus assuring a period of time in which the active agents are present in desired concentrations, and more preferably a prolonged time during which they are simultaneously present in desired concentrations. The agents of each component are also selected so as to allow easy administration of the medication to patients in three vials of medication rather than as a large number of individual vials.
