  • Patent number: 12111912
    Abstract: A computer implemented method to identify a malicious database request including receiving a database query for retrieving data from a database; classifying the received query based on query instructions contained in the query to identify a class of query for the query, the class of query having associated attributes defining expected characteristics of queries of the class when executed by the database; monitoring characteristics of the received query executed to retrieve data from the database; and responsive to a determination that the monitored characteristics deviate from the expected characteristics, identifying the query as malicious.

  • Patent number: 11157506
    Abstract: A computer implemented method of data access to data stored in one or more data stores includes receiving a request to retrieve data from the one or more data stores; extracting characteristics of the request to classify the request according to a request classification; identifying a model for execution of one or more queries to one or more data stores; executing the one or more queries according to the model to formulate a response to the request, wherein the model for execution is identified based on a class of the request and includes an identification of one or more data stores to which the one or more queries are to be directed to formulate the response; and monitoring execution of one or more queries for a class of request and revising the model in accordance with predetermined criteria.

  • Publication number: 20180141260
    Abstract: The disclosure relates to processes for producing lightweight polyethylene terephthalate bottles that retain good barrier properties against the permeation of oxygen, carbon dioxide and/or water vapor. The use of relatively small amounts of polyethylene furandicarboxylate during the formation of the PET bottles can produce a bottle having the required barrier properties and result in the use of less material.
