  • Publication number: 20220078208
    Abstract: In one embodiment, a device obtains one or more packets of a traffic session in a network. The device determines, for a particular packet of the one or more packets that match a filter, a fingerprint for the particular packet. The device identifies a plurality of traffic sessions whose packets match the fingerprint, wherein each of the plurality of traffic sessions is associated with at least one process. The device updates a process with the traffic session by applying a classifier to the plurality of traffic sessions.

  • Patent number: 11223653
    Abstract: In one embodiment, a device obtains telemetry data regarding an encrypted traffic session in a network. The telemetry data includes Transport Layer Security (TLS) features of the traffic session and auxiliary information indicative of a destination address of the traffic session, a destination port of the traffic session, or a server name associated with the traffic session. The device retrieves, using the obtained telemetry data, a plurality of candidate processes from a TLS fingerprint database that relates processes with telemetry data from encrypted traffic sessions initiated by those processes. The device uses a probabilistic model to assign probabilities to each of the plurality of candidate processes. The device identifies one of the plurality of candidate processes as having initiated the encrypted traffic session based on its assigned probability.

  • Patent number: 7822475
    Abstract: An implantable medical device comprises at least two sensing channels for receiving sensed first and second location electrical signals originating from two different locations of a heart. A control unit is connected to the sensing channels and is adapted to process sensed electrical signals originating from first and second locations of the heart. The control unit incorporates an adaptive filter compensator adapted to generate an estimate signal for compensating a far-field contribution of the second location signal to the first location signal, thereby generating an output signal representing a near field signal originating from the first location. A gate is connected to the second location sensing channel and is adapted to enable the adaptive filter compensator only if a predetermined signal is sensed via the second location sensing channel.

  • Patent number: 7761163
    Abstract: The invention relates to heart stimulators and implantable atrial pacemakers which utilize a rhythm based atrial capture threshold test wherein in a ventricle based DDI mode a predetermined number of ventricle started atrial and ventricular escape intervals are triggered with an overdrive rate about 20% higher than an intrinsic heart rate. The number of atrial sense events during atrial capture threshold test is counted. Too high of a number of atrial sense events indicates loss of capture due to too small of a pulse strength of the atrial stimulation pulses.

  • Patent number: 4467813
    Abstract: A biological signal source amplifier having a rapid overload recovery capability and an output reference level translation feature. The amplifier responds to input signals of excessive amplitude by actively decreasing the response time of a reactive input coupling circuit when the input signal crosses predetermined dynamic limits. A differential amplifier is used in such a way as to produce an output referenced to a voltage level other than power supply ground. A level translation feature is provided for translating the output signal to the input of a subsequent circuit having a different reference level without introducing a dc offset or other associated amplitude distortion, or effects of capacitive coupling on low-frequency response.

  • Patent number: 4051333
    Abstract: A circuit-energized voltage tester for determining whether or not the voltages on the tip and ring conductors of a telephone line are within their normal ranges is disclosed. The voltage tester is adapted for inclusion in a standard telephone repairman's handset and includes an energy storage circuit that becomes charged upon the application of handset test probes to tip and ring conductors if they are carrying a voltage greater than a predetermined level. Upon the closure of a switch, the energy thus stored energizes the remaining portion of the voltage tester. If suitable voltages are present on the tip and ring conductors, light emitting diodes forming a portion of a pair of optical isolators are controlled such that no measurement indication is provided. Specifically, the photo transistor portions of the optical isolators are alternately interrogated by a low frequency measurement control oscillator.
