Shaila Vasudev has filed for patents to protect the following inventions. This listing includes patent applications that are pending as well as patents that have already been granted by the United States Patent and Trademark Office (USPTO).

  • Patent number: 11620402
    Abstract: The technology disclosed teaches protecting sensitive data in the cloud via indexable databases. The method includes identifying sensitive fields of metadata for encryption and for hashing. The method also includes hashing at least partial values in the indexable sensitive fields to non-reversible hash values, concatenating the non-reversible hash values with the metadata for the network events, and encrypting the sensitive fields of metadata. Also included is sending the metadata for the network events, with the non-reversible hash values and the encrypted sensitive fields, to a remote database server that does not have a decryption key for the encrypted sensitive fields and that indexes the non-reversible hash values for indexed retrieval against the indexable sensitive fields.
    Type: Grant

  • Patent number: 6182157
    Abstract: An alarm monitoring apparatus and method allows a user of a management station to dynamically create and flexibly configure SNMP traps based on any management information base variable without having to define an exhaustive set of trap definitions in a management information base. Apparatus for monitoring status of a network device includes a processor assembly coupled to the network device and a data memory member accessible by the processor assembly for indicating user-defined alarm thresholds of the subject device. The processor assembly obtains threshold data from the data memory member and compares current status to the obtained threshold data. Upon a threshold being met by the current status, the processor assembly transmits an indication of threshold condition of the subject device to a system management station across a network. The data memory member is a database formed of a plurality of records defined by a management information base.
