  • Publication number: 20240098105
    Abstract: Aspects of the disclosure relate to TTP based threat hunting. A computing platform may store a plurality of threat actor profiles, each threat actor profile including TTP information characteristic of the corresponding threat actor. The computing platform may execute, for a first threat actor and on behalf of a plurality of individuals, a threat hunt, where: 1) executing the threat hunt comprises searching for a presence of the first threat actor based on the threat actor profile for the first threat actor, and 2) executing the threat hunt produces metadata corresponding to the first threat actor. The computing platform may send, to a SOAR computing system, commands directing the SOAR computing system to execute SOAR actions for the metadata, which may cause the SOAR computing system to execute the SOAR actions.

  • Publication number: 20230293843
    Abstract: Distinctly keyed male-female couplers are pneumatically connected to medical ventilator by distinct lines carrying pulsatile gas or sensory signals. Ventilator-mounted female coupler has entranceway cavity and larger receiving cavity delimited by catch edge. Male fence-forming longitudinal winglets extend from sealing plate carry terminal end convexities which latch onto catch edge. Winglets move inward due to larger fence circumference than entranceway and seat on catch. Winglets placed in tension due to locking length less than entranceway span, then convert force into sealing compressive force between sealing plate and female tube end. Conjoining male tube bayoneted and sheathed by projecting female tube, resulting in another gas seal. Two compressive seals formed between male distal port and pneumatic line. Extending male key(s) on winglet insertable into matching female slots. Convexities block insertion of non-matching couplers set due to interference by convexities on female on entranceway edges.

  • Patent number: 9657676
    Abstract: Methods and systems are provided for calibrating powertrain output in a vehicle. In one embodiment, a method for a vehicle comprises displaying a multi-parameter powertrain calibration map on a display device, and, responsive to user input, selectively adjusting the displayed calibration map along at least one parameter and not adjusting the calibration map past one or more predetermined thresholds. In this way, a vehicle powertrain system may be optimized according to a user's needs and/or preferences.

  • Patent number: 9516783
    Abstract: A thermal management system for an enclosure containing electrical components includes a thermoelectric cooling unit for controlling temperature inside the enclosure and a controller for the cooling unit, the controller being configured so that it can be installed within and protected by the enclosure, rather than requiring its own separate secure enclosure. The controller includes a simplified power management circuit that uses an input quick connector that receives a first cable connector for providing power to the circuit board, and an output quick connector that receives a second cable connector for supplying power from the input quick connector to the fan of the cooling unit. This one-in, one-out arrangement allows for the elimination of multiple hard-wired cable harnesses and the corresponding connectors on the circuit boards of existing controllers. The circuit board size is reduced, and terminal blocks eliminated, so that the controller can be installed inside the enclosure.
