  • Patent number: 12068844
    Abstract: A system that synchronizes waveforms received over a network from one or more devices, such as medical devices. Because of network delays or losses, waveforms can arrive at varying rates and times. Precise post-synchronization of the received data, to within a few milliseconds, is needed for accurate analysis. Applications include automatic classification of waveforms, such as detection of myocardial infraction from heart monitor waveforms. Synchronization uses sequence numbers assigned by each device, but must also account for sequence number wraparounds. Waveforms may also be synchronized across devices, by calculating the bias between within-device synchronized times and a common time source or common disturbance. Waveform data may also be stored data in a database or data warehouse; embodiments may index the data using a key with a date-time prefix and a hash code suffix, to support distributed indexing while reducing the chance of hash collisions to a very small probability.

  • Patent number: 12058168
    Abstract: A system for managing security within an enterprise includes a computing device that receives a vulnerability, generates a user score for each user within the enterprise and generates a threat score for the vulnerability. A user device score may also be generated for each device associated with a user. Based on the user score and the threat score, a composite score is generated. After acquiring a security measure, the security measure is implemented based on the composite score and, at times, the user score.
