A method of generating graphical models for providing security analysis in computer networks that in one embodiment includes the steps of generating a type abstract graph independent of particular networks that models abstract dependency relationships among attributes and exploits; generating network-specific attack graphs by combining the type abstract graph with specific network information; monitoring an intruder alert; and generating a real-time attack graph by correlating the intruder alert with the network-specific attack graph. The real-time attack graph can be generated using reachability checking, bridging, and exploit prediction based on consequence alerts and may further include the step of calculating the likelihood of queries using a Bayesian network model. The method may also include the steps of inferring unobserved attacks that may have been missed by intrusion detection sensors, and projecting on which hosts and using what exploits additional intruder attacks may occur. The method may further include the step of comparing alternate actions by computation, wherein the alternate actions include the step of patching some vulnerabilities, and wherein the specific network information includes network topology. The specific network information may also include firewall rules.

The present invention provides, inter alia, a method for generating a genome-wide epigenomic map, comprising a correlation between methylation variable CpG positions (MVP) and genomic DNA sample types. MVP are those CpG positions that show a variable quantitative level of methylation between sample types. Particular genomic regions of interest (ROI) provide preferred marker sequences that comprise multiple, and preferably proximate MVP, and that have novel utility for distinguishing sample types. The epigenic maps have broad utility, for example, in identifying sample types, or for distinguishing between and among sample types. In a preferred embodiment the epigenomic map is based on methylation variable regions (MVP) within the major histocompatibility complex (MHC), and has utility, for example, in identifying the cell or tissue source of a genomic DNA sample, or for distinguishing one or more particular cell or tissue types among other cell or tissue types. Analysis of epigenetic characteristics of one, or of a set of nucleic acid sequences, in the context of an inventive epigenomic map, allows for the determination of an origin of the nucleic acids.

A method is described for extracting the spatial distribution of charge stored in a charge-trapping layer of a semiconductor device. The method comprises the steps of performing a first charge-pumping measurement on a device under test using a variation of the upper level of the pulse and performing a second charge-pumping measurement on this device using a variation of the lower level of the pulse. The data obtained is combined for extracting the spatial distribution. This is done by establishing a relation between a charge pumping current I_cp and a calculated channel length L_calc of the semiconductor device by reconstructing spatial charge distribution estimates from the charge pumping curves for multiple values of the charge pumping current I_cp. From these multiple values of I_cp the value is obtained for which the corresponding calculated channel length L_calc is substantially equal to the effective channel length L_eff of the semiconductor device and the spatial charge distribution is reconstructed from the charge pumping curves using the obtained value of I_cp.
