Method and system for dynamically protecting a computer system from attack
Issued US US 10/400,938
See patentA dynamic protection system can analyze a computer system to determine its vulnerabilities to attack and generate a policy for protecting the computer system based on the identified vulnerabilities. Data received by the computer system can be analyzed to determine if it poses a threat to the system. This can prevent the data from entering the system or host based on a determination that the data poses a threat. Also, the dynamic protection system can receive policy updates to allow it to…
A dynamic protection system can analyze a computer system to determine its vulnerabilities to attack and generate a policy for protecting the computer system based on the identified vulnerabilities. Data received by the computer system can be analyzed to determine if it poses a threat to the system. This can prevent the data from entering the system or host based on a determination that the data poses a threat. Also, the dynamic protection system can receive policy updates to allow it to protect the system more efficiently and effectively. In other words, the dynamic protection system can protect an evolving computer system operating in an environment that is characterized by constantly changing methods of attack. Furthermore, by minimizing a need for manual intervention, attacks can be rapidly and accurately detected with a minimization of false positives, thereby lowering the cost of operation.

A system and method is disclosed for detecting security vulnerabilities in a computer network. The system includes an IP spoofing attack detector, a stealth port service map generator, a source port verifier, source routing verifier, an RPC service detector and a Socks configuration verifier. Each of these verifiers may be operated separately or as a group to detect security vulnerabilities on a network. Each verifier may be programmed to exhaustively test all ports of all computers on a network to detect susceptibility to IP spoofing attacks, access to services with little or no authorization checks or misconfigured routers or Socks servers. The detected vulnerabilities or the location of services having little or no authorization checks may be stored in a table for reference by a network administrator. The service map generated by the stealth service map generator may be used to identify all service ports on a network to facilitate the operation of the other verifiers which send service command messages to service ports to detect their accessibility. A graphic user interface (GUI) may be used to provide input and control by a user to the security verifiers and to present options and display information to the user.

🎉 Happy Friday folks 💥— A bonus as we finish off February and head toward the vernal equinox, we're releasing two new features in DocParse: VLM-based vision pipelines for document parsing, and LLM voting for agentic property extraction. We have seen Vision language models, or VLMs, become increasingly capable at parsing documents. Today we are happy to announce a new option in DocParse that lets you use PaddleOCR-VL 1.5 model for the entire pipeline from segmentation to OCR to table extraction. It’s both fast and super accurate (SOTA on OmniDocBench). Our agentic property extraction feature allows you to extract structured information from your documents. The feedback from customers is that they want to know how good the quality is, so we added LLM voting. We perform extraction with LLMs from three leading frontier model providers and use the agreement among them to help you assess the quality. The more LLMs that agree, the more likely the value is correct. It’s also a good sanity check of the quality of your schema. We can't wait for you to take it for a spin and tell us what you think. More details in the blog👇

The Reality Defender API is the antigen test of deep fakes: with two lines of code, you can determine if a bad actor is attempting to spoof your human identity infrastructure (e.g., a fake candidate interviewing for a remote developer role on Zoom, voice identification for your bank, etc.). A game changer in ease of use and operations in preserving human identity.

This announcement is something that I have been dying to tell everyone about…and not just because it reminds me of the tech from Oscorp in Spider-Man. For all the biologists and scientists out there, allow me to introduce Trilobio and its new robot, Trilobot One. Trilobio was founded by 776 Foundation fellow Roya Amini-Naieni (our $100K was one of her VERY FIRST CHECKS!) to fully automate every biology lab in the world. Roya is a biologist who was disappointed with the lab automation technology available to scientists like her and her friends. Lab automation was either too expensive or too unreliable, and connecting everything was $$$$. She co-founded Trilobio with Maximilian Schommer to revolutionize lab automation. Trilobots autocalibrate themselves, can hold eight completely different lab tools, and they can snap together and collaborate with each other. LFG! Trilobio has an ambitious vision, a great team, and their robots just look amazing (watch the video!!!). Be sure to check them out if you are a biologist (even if you are a startup, they have an affordable price point).

What value will we retain after this current hype cycle of clawdbot / moltbot / openclaw + moltbook 🦞🤖 Personal AI that works on stuff while you sleep Sovereign AI Agent to agent coordination Technology that gets you paid > laid or made Technology that empowers non coders to get things done without engineering resources Next generation cyber security to secure an agent-first world Hybrid local/edge + cloud infrastructure for AI Hybrid AI model usage (right tool for the job - many bots are swapping between models) The biggest unlocks for this architecture will be in the enterprise and this cycle sets the foundation for the next one but we haven’t seen anything yet…

Nvidia just released nemoclaw Link in comments. Their toolkit of enterprise safe claw bots. I will take a look and have a review, isolated sandboxes, NVIDIA compute, security policies. You can do most of this in docker and docker compose, but the benefit here is one click install. Enterprise level AI employees are not ready for prime time, but soon they might be. And when they are ready? 24/7 always on AI Employees.

The two very cool things about the OpenID Foundation's CAEP interoperability event at the FIDO Alliance Authenticate conference last month were: - We tested interoperability with the final SSF and CAEP specs! - All participating companies had production implementations! Thanks to Google, IBM, Jamf, Okta, Omnissa, SailPoint, and of course my company, SGNL for your enthusiastic participation! Read the full blog post on the OpenID website here: https://lnkd.in/gqQndD5A

We’re thrilled to share that Usul (YC S24) has raised $3.3M in Seed funding led by Scout Ventures with participation from BVVC, Teamworthy Ventures, True Ventures, Y Combinator and more. Usul is the modern platform for defense contract capture and federal growth. Our customers have won hundreds of millions in defense contracts for capabilities across Air, Land, Maritime, AI/ML and more. When Oliver Gomez, Joonghyun Lee and I joined forces during Stanford’s Hacking 4 Defense class, we interviewed 300+ defense companies to intimately understand how difficult it is for national security solutions to get deployed quickly at scale. In normal capital markets this is called dead weight loss. In warfighting, this costs lives. We're building an elite team of hackers and defense enthusiasts in San Francisco. If you’re interested in powering the next 1000 defense primes, email us at founders@usul.com or dm me. Read more about our journey in Erin O'Brien's Tectonic article below in the comments. Lastly, thank you to our amazing cap table for joining the ship. Bradley C.

If it can happen to them, it can happen to anyone. The U.S. government’s default messaging app, TM SGNL — a custom version of Signal — just had its source code exposed publicly. The reason? A simple file permission error on a WordPress site. The leak included hardcoded credentials and revealed how all messages — texts, calls, media — are engineered to log all communications automatically. It’s a reminder: even tools built for security can slip. One small mistake is all it takes. https://lnkd.in/dJcWpSUf

I sat down with Frontegg CEO Sagi on scaling CIAM for Insight Health. A few highlights from our convo, • Day-one enterprise readiness (HIPAA, multi-org, customizable access policies) • Why “build your own auth” slows growth (SSO/RBAC/SCIM, audit logs) • Delegated admin so partners self-manage without pinging engineering • CIAM as a GTM enabler for AI agents and clinician workflows Replay + transcript: https://lnkd.in/grRed-C5

With RL techniques like GRPO, it’s become easy to fine-tune small models to outperform foundation models on vertical tasks. We’re open sourcing Osmosis-Apply-1.7B: a small model that merges code (similar to Cursor’s instant apply) better than foundation models. Links in comments! Using foundation models for high specificity, low complexity tasks like code merging can be overkill - instead, it’s better to use a specialized model instead for higher performance and latency. We fine-tuned the model on 100K real-world code commits where the model needs to merge a code edit snippet into an original code snippet. On the test dataset (subset of CommitPackFT), foundation model performance ranged between 0.77-0.93 reward score. In comparison, Osmosis-Apply-1.7B achieved a 0.98 reward score - while also being 3X-5X more affordable than the next cheaper model AND ~10X faster! Why this matters: the best AI agents use multiple models to ensure task specialization and reliability at scale - on top of cost and latency benefits as well. Links to the model and full write-up (with reward function, hyperparameters, etc.) are in the comments - reach out if you’re interested in using reinforcement learning!
