Engineering Contradictions & Design Principles

VSEngineering Contradiction Analysis

1Loss of information

If traditional data visualization methods are used for aggregated security and stability data, then the data can be displayed, but the user understanding and effectiveness in identifying vulnerabilities is insufficient

Engineering Contradiction:
Improveuser understanding of security dataVSAvoiduser-friendliness of visualization
Core Design Contradiction:
Loss of informationVSEase of operation

Solution Approach 1:

The system segments aggregated security and stability data into distinct visual categories (security metrics, stability metrics, performance metrics) that can be independently analyzed. Each category is visually separated and can be explored individually, allowing users to understand specific aspects of system health without being overwhelmed by the entire dataset.

Inventive Principle:
Principle #1Segmentation

Solution Approach 2:

The system employs color-coded visual indicators to represent different severity levels and status states. Critical issues are highlighted with distinctive colors, enabling users to quickly grasp the most important information. Color changes dynamically reflect real-time data state, improving both information retention and ease of interpretation.

Inventive Principle:
Principle #32Color changes

2Reliability

If detailed aggregated data is collected from the entire computing environment, then comprehensive analysis is possible, but the complexity of analyzing and visualizing the data increases

Engineering Contradiction:
Improvecomprehensiveness of security analysisVSAvoidcomplexity of data visualization system
Core Design Contradiction:
ReliabilityVSDevice complexity

Solution Approach 1:

The system divides the computing environment into manageable segments (individual devices, applications, networks) and analyzes each segment separately. This segmentation allows comprehensive coverage of the entire environment while maintaining analytical simplicity through modular processing and focused visualization of specific segments.

Inventive Principle:
Principle #1Segmentation

Solution Approach 2:

The system introduces an intermediary AI engine that processes and interprets complex aggregated data before presenting it to users. This intermediary layer translates raw metrics into meaningful insights, reducing the complexity burden on both the visualization system and end users while maintaining comprehensive analytical capabilities.

Inventive Principle:
Principle #24Intermediary (Mediator)

3Measurement precision

If AI-based analysis is implemented to detect vulnerabilities, then detection accuracy improves, but the system complexity and computational requirements increase

Engineering Contradiction:
Improvevulnerability detection accuracyVSAvoidAI engine complexity
Core Design Contradiction:
Measurement precisionVSDevice complexity

Solution Approach 1:

The AI engine operates autonomously to detect, analyze, and prioritize vulnerabilities without requiring manual configuration or intervention. It self-adjusts its analysis parameters and automatically generates remediation recommendations, reducing the operational complexity despite the advanced analytical capabilities.

Inventive Principle:
Principle #25Self-service

Solution Approach 2:

The system implements feedback loops where AI analysis results are continuously refined based on detected patterns and outcomes. This feedback mechanism improves detection accuracy over time while the system learns to optimize its computational resources, balancing precision with manageable complexity.

Inventive Principle:
Principle #23Feedback

AI summary

A system is provided for generating artificial intelligence based visualizations of computing device security and stability. In particular, the system may aggregate various types of data and metrics related to the operational performance, security, and stability of the computing devices and applications within an entity's computing environments. Based on the aggregated data, the system may use an artificial intelligence engine to determine whether a particular area, network, application, or device may be vulnerable. Based on analyzing the data, the system may generate one or more visualizations of the data that reflect the current state of the entity's computing environment as a whole. The system may further be configured to transmit notifications to one or more relevant users associated with the applications or devices subject to the vulnerabilities.
