Patent number: 11019078Abstract: Aspects of the present invention provide an approach for performing network intrusion detection and prevention service (NIDPS) detection on a proxy server in a networked computing environment. In an embodiment, the proxy server has a front end proxy, a NIDPS component, and a back end proxy installed on it. The front end proxy decodes communications sent by external users to content servers over a network that are intercepted by the proxy server and forwards the communications to the NIDPS component. The NIDPS component performs NIDPS detection to detect whether communications comprise a network threat. Communications that have been verified as not comprising a network threat are forwarded to the back end proxy for routing to their destinations. Communications that have been verified as threats are forwarded to a cognitive engine, which initiates an automatic scaling of the NIDPS component in response to indications of network threats from the NIDPS component.Type: GrantFiled: October 10, 2018Date of Patent: May 25, 2021Assignee: International Business Machines CorporationInventors: Vinit Jain, Sudheesh S.

Patent number: 11012821Abstract: Radio terminals (1A, 1B, 1C) each receive a broadcast/multicast signal (220) from a cellular communication network (10). The representative terminal (1A) receives response messages from the respective neighboring radio terminals (1B, 1C) via D2D communication (231, 232). Each response message is generated based on reception of the broadcast/multicast signal (220) by each neighboring radio terminal (1B, 1C). The representative terminal (1A) generates a representative response message and transmits it to the cellular communication network (10) or another node (7) via uplink transmission (240). It is thus, for example, possible to contribute to improving efficiency of transmission by radio terminals of response messages related to a broadcast/multicast service.Type: GrantFiled: January 18, 2018Date of Patent: May 18, 2021Assignee: NEC CORPORATIONInventors: Taichi Ohtsuji, Kazushi Muraoka

Patent number: 11012173Abstract: A method and a first network node (800) serving a first cell (800A) in a wireless network, for enabling reduction of interference in a second cell (800B) caused by transmission of reference signals in the first cell (800A). The first network node (800) transmits (8:1) scheduling blocks with said reference signals, using a time offset relative transmission of scheduling blocks in the second cell. A timing advance value is determined (8:3) for a wireless device (802) and the wireless device (802) instructed (8:4) to apply said timing advance value for uplink transmissions. The timing advance value was determined such that uplink symbols transmitted from the wireless device (802) are aligned with uplink symbols received at a second network node (804) of the second cell (804A).Type: GrantFiled: June 22, 2017Date of Patent: May 18, 2021Assignee: TELEFONAKTIEBOLAGET LM ERICSSON (PUBL)Inventors: Mats Åhlander, Patrik Rask, David Sandberg

Patent number: 11005875Abstract: Systems and methods herein relate to monitoring traffic for mobile devices for threats. One method includes defining, in a data structure, groups based on a characteristic. A mobile device is then enrolled under one of the groups. In so doing, a security application monitors traffic for the device for threats, based on the device's enrollment group, when the device is associated with a characteristic on which its enrollment group is based. When the device is no longer associated with the characteristic on which its enrollment group is based, the device is re-enrolled under a different group.Type: GrantFiled: January 2, 2020Date of Patent: May 11, 2021Assignee: MASTERCARD INTERNATIONAL INCORPORATEDInventor: Nicole Deanne Hathaway

Patent number: 11006420Abstract: Disclosed is a data transmission method. The method comprises: reserving a first channel and a second channel, where the first channel is used for transmitting data and the second channel is used for transmitting ACKs; sending data to a receiving end on the first channel that is reserved; receiving an ACK that is sent by the receiving end and corresponds to the data on the second channel that is reserved and determining whether the data needs to be cached based on information carried in the ACK; and if the information carried in the ACK indicates that the receiving end has correctly received the data, clearing the data that is cached by a sending end. Through separate transmission of the data and the ACK, an efficiency problem of the sending end in providing MAC in a wireless system in a condition of a limited cache capacity is resolved.Type: GrantFiled: March 20, 2020Date of Patent: May 11, 2021Assignee: Huawei Technologies Co., Ltd.Inventors: Xun Yang, Tianyu Wu, Yunbo Li
