Patent number: 11856012Abstract: A method for cyber security monitor includes monitoring a network interface that is input-only configured to surreptitiously and covertly receive bit-level, physical layer communication between networked control and sensor field devices. During a training mode, a baseline distinct native attribute (DNA) fingerprint is generated for each networked field device. During a protection mode, a current DNA fingerprint is generated for each networked field device. The current DNA fingerprint is compared to the baseline DNA fingerprint for each networked field device. In response to detect at least one of RAA and PAA based on a change in the current DNA fingerprint to the baseline DNA fingerprint of one or more networked field devices, an alert is transmitted, via an external security engine interface to an external security engine.Type: GrantFiled: February 7, 2023Date of Patent: December 26, 2023Assignee: United States of America as represented by the Secretary of the Air ForceInventors: Christopher M. Rondeau, Michael A. Temple, Juan Lopez, Jr., J. Addison Betances

Patent number: 9036891Abstract: A system and method of generating and comparing a fingerprint for an integrated circuit is provided. A sensor module captures electromagnetic emissions from the integrated circuit. A feature extraction module extracts discriminating features from the captured electromagnetic emissions. A classifier training module generates a plurality of authentication fingerprints of the integrated circuit from the extracted discriminating features creating a reference fingerprint template for the integrated circuit. The reference template for the integrated circuit is stored in a database. For authentication, the reference fingerprint template from the database is compared to the generated authentication fingerprint.Type: GrantFiled: October 29, 2012Date of Patent: May 19, 2015Assignee: The United States of America as represented by the Secretary of the Air ForceInventors: William E Cobb, Michael A.

Publication number: 20060067381Abstract: A system and method for spectrum re-use employing transfer domain communications systems is disclosed. An adaptive waveform technique reconfigures its fundamental modulation waveform depending on the spectral environment. Spectral interference, or other friendly user's presence, is estimated using general spectral estimation techniques. Once the frequency bands containing strong interference or signals of other users are identified, those frequency bands are removed prior to creating a time-domain Fundamental Modulation Waveform (FMW) using the appropriate inverse transform. The data is then modulated with these fandamental modulation waveforms to generate the digitally encoded waveforms. The digitally encoded waveforms representing the transmitted communication symbols do not contain energy at the spectral location of the interference.Type: ApplicationFiled: September 23, 2005Publication date: March 30, 2006Inventors: Vasu Chakravarthy, James Stephens, Arnab Shaw, Michael Temple

Patent number: 6292506Abstract: A method and device for generating a pseudorandom electrical signal for enabling spread spectrum communication scrambling by directing data entry into pseudorandom number generator integrated circuit chip controlling registers using a length selectable feedback logic data sequence and either computer programmable selector means or manual selector means to communicate the logic data sequence characters to buffers. The logic data sequence characters are clocked to a pseudorandom number generating register of an integrated circuit chip and the pseudorandom electrical signal is generated by selectively tapping a signal code therefrom. The method and device features a pseudorandom electrical signal length varying capability and is portable to various laboratory applications without a change in hardware configuration.Type: GrantFiled: December 4, 1998Date of Patent: September 18, 2001Assignee: The United States of America as represented by the Secretary of the Air ForceInventors: John F.
