30 people were in my care and under my direction for their fundraising and health improvement. I think they changed me more than I did them. I appreciate their hardwork and revel in their accomplishments both for furthering the cause to stop cancer and their own health goals.

INCEPTION OF SUSPICIOUS NETWORK TRAFFIC FOR ENHANCED NETWORK SECURITY
Issued US 20210099468
See patentApplicant: Fortinet, Inc.

Systems and methods are described for inception of suspicious network traffic to allow detection of the beginning of common attacks by network security devices, such as NGFWs, UTM appliances and IPS appliances. According to one embodiment, inception engine running on network security appliance protecting a private network monitors a session between an external computing device and a server device associated with the private network. In response to receipt of suspicious traffic from external computing device indicative of an attack sequence, the inception engine blocks the suspicious traffic from reaching the server device and incepts the attack sequence by providing one or more responses to the external computing device, which are selected based on the attack sequence. Further, when the attack is confirmed, the inception engine diverts the traffic to a more capable deception device.

✴️ 10 years. That’s the offline retention requirement CMS is now pointing to for business audit records, tied to 45 CFR §155.1210 guidance. This isn’t just “keep logs longer.” It’s “design your environment to retain, protect, and produce records on demand.” Ian Walters Principal at Coalfire explains the v1.04 updates and how to get ahead of them. 👉 Read now: https://ow.ly/hXzZ50XVCiw #Healthcare #RegulatoryCompliance #GRC #Cybersecurity #Audit

CMMC in Ammunition & Energetics Manufacturing: Cybersecurity Is a Safety Issue For ammunition and energetics manufacturers, cybersecurity maturity directly supports safety, reliability, and mission assurance. These environments often involve: 1. Sensitive technical data and formulations 2. Regulated production processes 3. Highly controlled quality and safety documentation 4. Close coordination with DoD and prime contractors Under CMMC, protecting Controlled Unclassified Information (CUI) means ensuring that engineering data, production documentation, and testing information are safeguarded across both IT and manufacturing-adjacent systems. CMMC isn’t about disrupting production — it’s about ensuring that critical defense data is protected with the same rigor as physical safety controls. #CMMC #DefenseIndustrialBase #Energetics #AmmunitionManufacturing #NIST800171 #CybersecurityCompliance https://lnkd.in/e4pKkJEN

🚨 70% of small businesses close within 6 months of a major cyberattack. Don’t be a stat. A resilient business doesn’t just back up data. It defends, detects, and adapts. You need proactive monitoring and real-time threat intelligence so you don't just recover from a cyberattack—you resist it.
