  • Publication number: 20240015223
    Abstract: A method, apparatus and product for sub-networks based cyber security. One method includes detecting a device connecting to a local network, wherein the local network is divided into an initial set of subnets, identifying the device by performing a fingerprinting operation on the device, determining an expected usage of the device and updating the initial set of subnets based on the expected usage of the device to generate an updated set of subnets. The method further includes selecting a subnet of the updated set of subnets of the local network to connect the device based on the expected usage of the device, the selected subnet corresponding to the expected usage of the device and connecting the device to the selected subnet in the local network.

  • Patent number: 11843666
    Abstract: A method, apparatus and product for sub-networks based cyber security. One method comprises detecting a device connecting to a local network which is divided into subnets; determining a usage profile of the device; automatically selecting a subnet to connect the device based on the usage profile; and connecting the device to the selected subnet in the local network. Another method comprises monitoring communication traffic of devices in each of the subnets of a local network; performing anomaly detection to detect an abnormal communication of a device connected to a subnet; blocking the abnormal communication of the device; and removing the device from the subnet and connecting the device to a quarantine subnet of the local network, whereby reducing connectivity of the device with other devices connected to the local network.

  • Patent number: 6259538
    Abstract: A facsimile gateway provides fax transmission over a packetized network. To accommodate packet delay in the network, an alternate protocol source provides the appropriate notifications to the originating fax machine. In one embodiment, the gateway is constructed using conventional class II or 2.0 fax/modems and voice processing boards. The fax board provides most of the fax gateway operations. As needed, the voice board is switched into the call to provide notifications to prevent a time-out in the originating fax machine.
