Engineering Contradictions & Design Principles

VSEngineering Contradiction Analysis

1Loss of time

If manual investigation of security alerts is performed, then security threats can be investigated, but the process is time-consuming and cumbersome

Engineering Contradiction:
Improvetime required for manual investigationVSAvoidsecurity alert investigation efficiency
Core Design Contradiction:
Loss of timeVSProductivity

Solution Approach 1:

The system enables self-service by having the AI insight engine automatically analyze security alerts and generate insights without requiring manual intervention. The engine autonomously processes alerts, identifies patterns, and presents actionable insights, freeing security researchers from repetitive manual investigation tasks.

Inventive Principle:
Principle #25Self-service

Solution Approach 2:

The patent replaces the mechanical manual investigation process with an automated AI-based system. Large language models and machine learning algorithms automatically analyze security alerts, generate insights, and provide recommendations, substituting human manual analysis with intelligent automation.

Inventive Principle:
Principle #28Mechanics substitution (Replace mechanical system)

2Ease of operation

If manual investigation of security alerts is performed, then security threats can be investigated, but it requires significant expertise and effort

Engineering Contradiction:
Improveease of security alert investigationVSAvoidcomplexity of security analysis process
Core Design Contradiction:
Ease of operationVSDevice complexity

Solution Approach 1:

The AI insight engine performs self-service by automatically executing complex analysis tasks without requiring user expertise. The system handles alert correlation, pattern recognition, and insight generation autonomously, making the process accessible to users regardless of their technical expertise level.

Inventive Principle:
Principle #25Self-service

Solution Approach 2:

AI summary

A security system may receive, without a submission of a user query, a model response from a large language model, where the model response includes structured data generated by the large language model using a plurality of security alerts. A security system may render an interface on a computing device using the structured data, where the interface displays information about a security insight event detected by the large language model using the plurality of security alerts, and the interface identifies a portion of the plurality of security alerts as related to the security insight event.
