  • Publication number: 20200076834
    Abstract: Activity on an endpoint is monitored in two stages with a local agent. In a first stage, particular computing objects on the endpoint are selected for tracking. In a second stage, particular types of changes to those objects are selected. By selecting objects and object changes in this manner, a compact data stream of information highly relevant to threat detection can be provided from an endpoint to a central threat management facility. At the same time, a local data recorder creates a local record of a wider range of objects and changes. The system may support forensic activity by facilitating queries to the local data recorder on the endpoint to retrieve more complete records of local activity when the compact data stream does not adequately characterize a particular context.

In a second stage, particular types of changes to those objects are selected. By selecting objects and object changes in this manner, a compact data stream of information highly relevant to threat detection can be provided from an endpoint to a central threat management facility. In order to support dynamic threat response, the locus and level of detection applied by the local agent can be controlled by the threat management facility and/or the endpoint.

  • Publication number: 20200076837
    Abstract: A data recorder stores endpoint activity on an ongoing basis as sequences of events that causally relate computer objects such as processes and files. When a security event is detected, an event graph may be generated based on these causal relationships among the computing objects. For a root cause analysis, the event graph may be traversed in a reverse order from the point of an identified security event (e.g., a malware detection event) to preceding computing objects, while applying one or more cause identification rules to identify a root cause of the security event. Once a root cause is identified, the event graph may be traversed forward from the root cause to identify other computing objects that are potentially compromised by the root cause.

  • Publication number: 20200076835
    Abstract: In a threat management platform, a number of endpoints log events in an event data recorder. A local agent filters this data and feeds a filtered data stream to a central threat management facility. The central threat management facility can locally or globally tune filtering by local agents based on the current data stream, and can query local event data recorders for additional information where necessary or helpful in threat detection or forensic analysis. The central threat management facility also stores and deploys a number of security tools such as a web-based user interface supported by machine learning models to identify potential threats requiring human intervention and other models to provide human-readable context for evaluating potential threats.

  • Patent number: 10579964
    Abstract: The present disclosure relates to a method for replenishing containers with goods from stock keeping units (SKUs) arriving at a replenishment area in a distribution center. A central controller receives a first set of data comprising a plurality of first predefined threshold values, each indicative of a maximum capacity of goods in a corresponding SKU. The central controller associates the first set of data to a second set of data comprising one or more container identifiers having a second predefined threshold value indicative of a capacity of a corresponding container. Further, the central controller generates an ordered sequence of container identifiers indicative of the containers to be retrieved to the replenishment area for receiving goods from the plurality of SKUs based on the association of the first set of data with the second set of data.

  • Publication number: 20200065062
    Abstract: Systems and methods are described for recognizing and responding to vocal commands in a virtual or physical environment. A system may receive voice data from a user and determine an intended command. In a virtual environment, the system may then determine a position and viewpoint orientation of the user to be able to determine one or more digital assets in a field of view of the user. The system may then apply the command to at least a first digital asset of these digital assets. In a physical environment, the system may determine one or more devices in the environment that the command may be applied to and output a unique sensory pattern to each device such that the sensory pattern may be used to distinguish one device from another device. The system may receive one of these output sensory patterns and determine the sensory pattern is unique to a first device of the one or more devices, indicating the first device is the device the user wishes to command.

  • Publication number: 20200047014
    Abstract: A system for filling a tank for a firefighting helicopter with water without ground personnel, comprising a pilot controlled valve assembly to selectively permit water to flow into the refill tank upon the receipt of a communication transmitted by a communication device within the helicopter. The pilot controlled valve assembly can include a supply valve configured to move between at least a closed state and an open state, a controller configured to control the supply valve, and a receiver configured to send a signal to a controller to cause the controller to at least open the supply valve upon receipt by the receiver of a communication meeting one or more predetermined criteria. The water tank can be filled from a water source, including a municipal water source, when the supply valve is open to provide a more efficient, semi-autonomous refill tank system greatly improves costly and time-consuming manually refill systems.

  • Publication number: 20200046921
    Abstract: A method for controlling operation of a CPAP apparatus. The apparatus has a blower, a patient interface, an air delivery conduit for delivering air from the blower to the patient interface, a sensor for determining the pressure in the patient interface, and a control mechanism that causes air to be delivered at a desired pressure to the patient interface and that detects transitions between inhalation and exhalation of a respiratory cycle of a patient in order to synchronise the blower output with the patient's efforts. In one form the CPAP apparatus provides pressure in accordance with a bi-level waveform with at least one characterising parameter of the waveform being automatically adjusted in accordance with indications of sleep disordered breathing. The indications of sleep disordered breathing can be one or more of snoring, apnea, hypopnea, and flow limitation.
