Publication number: 20230065596Abstract: Disclosed herein are methods, systems, and processes for centralized containerized deployment of network traffic sensors to network sensor hosts for deep packet inspection (DPI) that supports various other cybersecurity operations. A network sensor package containing a preconfigured network sensor container is received by a network sensor host from a network sensor deployment server. Installation of the network sensor package on the network sensor host causes execution of the network sensor container that further causes deployment of an on-premise network sensor along with a network sensor management system, a DPI system, and an intrusion detection/prevention (IDS/IPS) system. The configurable on-premise network sensor is deployed on multiple operating system distributions of the network sensor host and generates actionable network metadata using DPI techniques for optimized log search and management and improved intrusion detection and response (IDR) operations.Type: ApplicationFiled: June 29, 2022Publication date: March 2, 2023Applicant: Rapid7, Inc.Inventors: John Brosnan, Jeff Myers, Andriy Lyubka, Darragh Delaney, Erran Carey, Martin Hutchings, Ralph McTeggart, Ryan Williams, Daniel Skelton, Luke Coughlan, Gianpaolo Tedesco, Luis Ramos dos Santos Lopes, Lars-Kristian Svenoy, Dan-Adrian Moinescu, Niall Cochrane, Morgan Doyle, Sarah Addis

Patent number: 11572202Abstract: A system and method for installing, deploying, and recovering a plurality of spacecraft that provides an ease of use and structural stability, and facilitates a standardization of spacecraft design. In embodiments of this invention, threaded rods are arranged orthogonal to a surface of a baseplate, and each spacecraft includes a coupling mechanism that selectively engages or disengages each threaded rod. Each spacecraft is added to the stack by engaging its coupling mechanism and rotating the threaded rods while the preceding spacecraft on the stack disengage their coupling mechanisms, thereby enabling the spacecraft to travel along the threaded rods toward the baseplate. When all of the spacecraft are added to the stack, the stack is preloaded by rotating the treaded rods into a terminator component at the top of the stack while the coupling mechanisms in all of the spacecraft are disengaged. Spacecraft are deployed by reversing the process.Type: GrantFiled: December 21, 2021Date of Patent: February 7, 2023Assignee: Planetary Systems CorporationInventors: Walter Holemans, Ryan Williams

Patent number: 11565833Abstract: After deploying its payload, the final stage of a launch vehicle is maneuvered to couple the nosecone of the launch vehicle to the ‘rear’, or ‘engine-end’ of the final stage. The nosecone covers the engine of the final stage, to protect the engine and related components from the heat of re-entry and the impact of landing. Placing the nosecone over the engine and orienting the combination such that the nosecone ‘leads’ the final stage during re-entry, places the center of gravity of the combination ahead of the center of pressure in the direction of travel. Accordingly, the combination is inherently stable as it re-enters the atmosphere and falls to earth. Parachutes and directional devices are used to provide a controlled soft landing.Type: GrantFiled: September 9, 2020Date of Patent: January 31, 2023Assignee: Planetary Systems CorporationInventors: Walter Holemans, Ryan Williams

Patent number: 11547394Abstract: An adapter assembly configured to be coupled to a surgical loading unit includes a switch, an elongated member, and an annular member. The switch is configured to be toggled in response to the surgical loading unit being coupled to the adapter assembly. The elongated member is in communication with the switch and is resiliently biased in a distal direction toward a locking position in which the switch is toggled. The annular member is disposed adjacent the elongated member and is rotatable between a first orientation, in which the annular member prevents distal movement of the elongated member, and a second orientation, in which the elongated member moves distally to toggle the switch.Type: GrantFiled: December 20, 2018Date of Patent: January 10, 2023Assignee: COVIDIEN LPInventors: Earl M.
