  • Publication number: 20230379352
    Abstract: In an embodiment, a semantic model and a semantic model training method that obtains a textual description of one or more features associated with a first vulnerability that has been used in one or more attacks. Text is parsed from the first textual description in accordance with one or more rules. The system determines a first label for the first vulnerability that is associated with one or more of a plurality of stages of an attack chain taxonomy. The model is generated or refined to map the parsed text to the first label associated with the one or more stages of the attack chain taxonomy.

  • Publication number: 20220333562
    Abstract: A system for optimizing engine air-mass-flow intake of an aircraft includes a forward-facing airframe-inlet duct interoperably coupled to an inlet of an engine of the aircraft, an air-mass-flow bypass mechanism coupled to the forward-facing airframe-inlet duct and adjustable to allow a selected amount of air entering an inlet of the forward-facing airframe-inlet duct to bypass the inlet of the engine, and an air-pressure sensor arranged in the forward-facing airframe-inlet duct adjacent to the inlet of the engine. A measured value (“PT1”) from the air-pressure sensor is used to determine a degree to which the air-mass-flow bypass mechanism is to be opened.

  • Publication number: 20220333567
    Abstract: A method of optimizing engine air-mass-flow intake of an aircraft includes determining air mass flow (“M1”) at a forward-facing airframe inlet duct. The forward-facing airframe inlet duct includes an air-mass-flow bypass mechanism. The method also includes determining required air mass flow (“MR”) of an engine coupled to the forward-facing airframe inlet duct, determining an air-mass-flow difference (“M3”) between M1 and MR, and adjusting the air-mass-flow bypass mechanism to pass M3 such that at least a portion of M3 does not reach the engine.
