Alert systems and methods for attack-related events

Disclosed herein are embodiments of systems, methods, and products comprise an analytic server, which provides a SilverlineRT system that prioritizes and analyzes security alerts and events. The server builds an attack tree based on attack detection rules. The server monitors large-scale distributed systems and receives alerts from various devices. The server determines attacks using the attack tree while excluding false alarms. The server determines impact and risk metrics for attacks in real-time, and calculates an impact score for each attack. The server ranks and prioritizes the attacks based on the impact scores. The server also generates real-time reports. By consider the mission and system specific context in the analysis alert information, the server gives insight into the overall context of problems and potential solutions, improving decision-making. By showing the impacts of alters, the server allows security personnel to prioritize responses and focus on highest value defense activities.

20230039855 · 2023-02-09 ·

The present disclosure describes a method, system, and apparatus for using a machine learning system to configure and optimize complex, distributed computer networks. The machine learning system receives an input related to a computer network and classifies the input using either a supervised learning approach or an unsupervised learning approach. From the classification of the input, the machine learning system builds a first training domain and determines a steady state network configuration for the computer network. After determining a steady state network configuration for the computer network, the machine learning system receives a plurality of inputs from one or more sensors or agents distributed throughout the computer network. The machine learning system compares the plurality of inputs to the steady state network configuration to detect a deviation from the first steady state network configuration. When a deviation from the steady state network configuration is detected, the machine learning system remediates the problem to return the computer network to the steady state network configuration.

METHODS AND APPARATUS FOR ENHANCING SCHEDULER FAIRNESS IN SMALL-CELL WIRELESS SYSTEMS
20230042904 · 2023-02-09 ·

Methods and apparatus for enhancing packet scheduler fairness in a small-cell wireless communication network. In one embodiment, the methods and apparatus utilize “quasi-licensed” CBRS (Citizens Broadband Radio Service) wireless spectrum in conjunction with 3GPP wireless communication network (e.g. 4G LTE or 5GNR) for the delivery of services to a number of enhanced CPE (consumer premises equipment), such as fixed wireless apparatus (FWAe). The various FWAe report Channel Quality Indicator (CQI) data to their respective serving base stations over time, and each base station both builds a statistical characterization of each FWAe, and maps the CQI data to a prescribed configuration (e.g., to the Modulation and Coding Scheme (MCS)) adaptively for the transmission of the data to the FWAe, and development of a scheduler priority for each FWAe. In one implementation, once the CQI values are stable for a given FWAe, CQI reporting is terminated for a period of time.
