  • Patent number: 12726524
    Abstract: In an embodiment, a method provides an environment for privately exchanging data for AI tasks. Identification of a task to perform, and a characteristic describing data needed to execute the task, is received. A data provider within the environment is located that has access to a data set according to the characteristic. A task provider within the environment is located. The located task provider is configured to execute the task. A real-time, private, and secure network connection between the data provider and the task provider is established. The established connection is configured such that the data provider and the task provider are able to communicate via the network connection without using publicly accessible network addresses. The data set is transferred from the data provider to the task provider via the established network connection. In response to the transfer, the task provider executes the task using the data set.

  • Publication number: 20230281204
    Abstract: In an embodiment, a method monitors a plurality of data streams passing through a router in the connectivity service provider environment, and for each of the data streams, periodically samples packets at the router. The method further generates a stream signature based at least on the payload of the sampled packets. The method further includes, for each generated stream signature, attaching information to the stream signature. Such information may, for example, include time-stamp information for the stream signature, or an identification of the router. The method may further comprise storing the stream signatures corresponding to the data streams in a database. The stored stream signatures may be compared to determine matching stream signatures. Matching signatures may identify data streams that carry identical or similar content.
