  • Patent number: 10992699
    Abstract: Embodiments disclosed herein describe a server, for example a security awareness server or an artificial intelligence machine learning system that establishes a job score for a user based on the user's job title. In embodiments, the vulnerability of a user to malicious cybersecurity attacks, the propensity for the user to engage with a malicious attack, and the severity of a malicious attack likely to be sent to the user and the severity of the harm to the user's organization is the user engages with the malicious attack is represented in a user risk score. The risk score for a user of a security awareness system, or for a group of users of a security awareness system, may be calculated based on one or more of a frequency score for the user, a propensity score for the user, a severity score for the user, and a job score for the user.

  • Publication number: 20210110044
    Abstract: A self-targeting method of automated cybersecurity analysis on an operating system on a target computer. An analysis software executable defined by a core engine executable is provided to the target computer and run on the operating system shell. The analysis software executable identifies the specific operating system that is running on the target computer and then causes one or a plurality of bash scripts which correspond to the identified operating system and which have been parsed from security setting entries from a standardized guide for desired security settings. The bash scripts then automatically assess the compliance of various aspects of the target computer system with the security setting entries, generating an output that is compatible with existing viewers for entries of standardized guides.

  • Publication number: 20210040082
    Abstract: Embodiments described herein are directed to employing an aggregation of participant sensor coverage areas to determine if there are missing coverage areas or unwanted overlapping coverage areas. If there are missing coverage areas, then at least one participant is instructed to modify its sensor coverage area to at least partially cover the missing coverage area. Conversely, if at least one participant has a sensor that is providing unwanted overlap of other sensor coverage areas, then that participant may be instructed to stop using that sensor, utilize that sensor for other data transmission purposes, or modify the coverage area to be non- or less-overlapping.

  • Patent number: 10917755
    Abstract: Embodiments described herein are directed to a tracking objects using a cognitive heterogeneous ad hoc mesh network. Participant objects transmit notification signals to inform other participant objects in line-of-sight of their position and movement. The participants also utilize echoes of the notification signals to detect and estimate the position and movement of non-participant objects. Participant objects can then share this positional information with one another to refine the estimated position and movement of non-participant objects. The position of each other participant and non-participant object is updated based on an individualized update rate that dynamically changes based on the distance and velocity of closure between the participant and the other participant or non-participant object.

  • Patent number: 10915587
    Abstract: A data processing system for searching network requests to extract values of parameters in the network requests includes a shared memory that stores data structures, wherein each of the data structures is stored in association with a value of a key, and wherein each of the data structures includes one or more entries for storage of data representing a network request. A parser engine parses a particular network request for values of parameters and for a value of a key. A search engine queries the shared memory for a particular data structure stored in association with the value of the key. A logic engine detects an absence of a particular entry, in the particular data structure, that stores data representing the particular network request, generates an entry in the particular data structure, and stores in the generated entry the values of the parameters.

  • Publication number: 20210022569
    Abstract: A toilet seat cover can be adhered to a toilet seat to help a child use the toilet. In embodiments, a toilet seat cover includes a plastic or other thin, flexible sheet having a central void defined therethrough and an adhesive coating on one surface. That surface may be temporarily adhered to a toilet seat to maintain the toilet seat cover in position. The child may then sit on the toilet seat cover to relieve himself, with the toilet seat cover screening the child from touching unsanitary surfaces of the toilet seat or toilet and suspending the child over the toilet bowl. Once the child has finished and is off the toilet seat cover, the cover may be removed by rolling or folding.

  • Patent number: 10878808
    Abstract: A system for processing user utterances and/or text based queries that tracks entities and other context data of a current dialog between the system and the user and can fill slots for new intents of the dialog by performing statistical processing on previously mentioned entities with respect to current slots to be filled. The system may compare a previously mentioned entity to a current slot to be filled using vector representations, such as word embeddings, of the current utterance, dialog history, current intent, name of an entity under consideration, category of the current slot to be filled, distance between the current dialog turn and the dialog turn that mentioned the entity, and other considerations. The individual vectors may be weighted according to an attention operation and processed by a trained decoder to output a score indicating whether the entity in consideration is relevant to the particular slot.

  • Publication number: 20200344217
    Abstract: Seamless connectivity utilizing multi-domain security by storing a global key on each participant computing devices. When a participant computing device tries to connect to a network, the network sends encryption keys for that network in response to that participant computing device providing the global key and not being blacklisted. The participant computing device can then connect to the network using that network's encryption key. A meta-message container is generated for the message based on a next participant in a route from the transmitting participant to the destination participant. One or more series of one or more line items are generated for the message, with each line item being tagged tag with network information. The line items are encrypted based on the network information. The meta-message container and the encrypted series of line items are then transmitted to the next participant.

  • Patent number: 10734118
    Abstract: Embodiments develop a predictive dose-volume relationships for a radiation therapy treatment is provided. A system includes a memory area for storing data corresponding to a plurality of patients, wherein the data comprises a three-dimensional representation of the planning target volume and one or more organs-at-risk. The data further comprises an amount of radiation delivered to the planning target volume and the one or more organs-at-risk. The system further includes one or more processors programmed to access, from the memory area, the data and to develop a model that predicts dose-volume relationships using the three-dimensional representations of the planning target volume and the one or more organs-at-risk. The model is being derived from correlations between dose-volume relationships and calculated minimum distance vectors between discrete volume elements of the one or more organs-at-risk and a boundary surface of the planning target volume.
