Publication number: 20220210171Abstract: System and methods for cross-domain training and updating of models to perform classification and scoring of network data/traffic are described. Information used to build deep machine learning models about traffic in one domain is used to improve the modeling in another domain. By using cross-domain learning, labeled data from another domain can be used to improve the detection rate and false positive rate of an analytic model in another domain. Because of the construction of the models, and because the models, and not the data are transferred, there is no disclosure of personally identifiable or otherwise restricted information.Type: ApplicationFiled: December 29, 2020Publication date: June 30, 2022Inventors: Robert L.

Patent number: 9910993Abstract: A cybersecurity system for managing cyber behavior associated with cyber actors such that the cyber behavior can be computed and predicted and cyber interactions between the cyber actors can be created. The system includes a cyber behavioral space management module configured to receive input data, and data from the interaction engine and the analytic workflow engine, and to generate a plurality of cyber behavioral spaces based on the received data. The system includes an interaction engine configured to process cyber actor data to facilitate interactions with the cyber behavioral space, a cyber scene, a cyber map, and another cyber actor. The system includes an analytic workflow engine configured to analyze the cyber behavioral spaces and update cyber data based on the analyzed data and the interaction engine data. The system includes a visualization engine configured to compute visualizations and transmit the visualizations for display.Type: GrantFiled: June 2, 2017Date of Patent: March 6, 2018Assignee: IronNet Cybersecurity, Inc.Inventors: Robert L.

Patent number: 8898784Abstract: Electronic network security by establishing a network topology, including multiple devices, where the network includes a command and control layer and a transport layer, where the command and control layer is changeable by the transport layer and vice versa. All phases of an intrusion attempt are monitored to anticipate an intrusion, prevent an intrusion, and remedy a successful intrusion. An assessment of the threat is made in multiple dimensions. The topology of the network may be changed in accordance with the threat assessment. In addition, computer traffic in the network and from the intrusion source may be modified or stopped to guard against an intrusion, prevent an intrusion, and remedy a successful intrusion. The command and control layer is changeable by the transport layer and vice versa.Type: GrantFiled: May 29, 2013Date of Patent: November 25, 2014Assignee: The United States of America, as represented by the Director, National Security AgencyInventors: Keith B. Alexander, Patrick W. Dowd, Robert L. Grossman

Patent number: 5224778Abstract: Apparatus for verifying the temperature of a polymerase chain reaction system comprises a pair of conical probe tips which are shaped to fit the wells of the temperature-controlled sample block. One of the probe tips encloses a resistance thermometer device which is connected by cable to a meter outside the system. The cable passes through the other probe tip where it is warmed, thereby reducing measurement errors due to heat conductance to ambient. The probe tips are normally arranged to fit into adjacent wells of the sample block.Type: GrantFiled: November 12, 1991Date of Patent: July 6, 1993Assignee: The Perkin Elmer CorporationInventors: Robert L. Grossman, James W. Frey
