Solution Overview

Problem

Conventional security systems are static and limited in their ability to dynamically adapt to emerging threats, often resulting in false positives and inefficiencies due to outdated knowledge bases and lack of dynamic rule updates, which can lead to ineffective identification and handling of security breaches.

Innovation Solution

A security system utilizing an artificial neural network (ANN) model that receives reputation data and intrusion information to generate test cases, simulate topologies, and dynamically update security rules, enabling real-time adaptation and improved threat detection and prevention.

Engineering Contradictions & Design Principles

VSEngineering Contradiction Analysis

1Adaptability or versatility

If conventional static security systems are used, then system simplicity is maintained, but the ability to adapt to emerging threats deteriorates

Engineering Contradiction:
Improveadaptability to emerging threatsVSAvoidsystem complexity
Core Design Contradiction:
Adaptability or versatilityVSDevice complexity

Solution Approach 1:

The patent implements dynamic security rules that automatically update based on learned threat patterns. The system transitions from static, pre-defined security policies to dynamic rules that adapt in real-time through machine learning models analyzing network traffic patterns, enabling the system to respond to emerging threats without manual intervention.

Inventive Principle:
Principle #15Dynamics

Solution Approach 2:

The security system performs self-learning and self-updating through automated machine learning models. The system autonomously analyzes network traffic, identifies threat patterns, generates updated security rules, and validates them without requiring external human input, enabling continuous adaptation to new threats while maintaining operational simplicity.

Inventive Principle:
Principle #25Self-service

2Measurement precision

If dynamic rule updates are implemented, then threat detection accuracy improves, but false positive identification increases

Engineering Contradiction:
Improvethreat detection accuracyVSAvoidfalse positive rate
Core Design Contradiction:
Measurement precisionVSReliability

Solution Approach 1:

The system incorporates feedback loops where security decisions and their outcomes are continuously analyzed. The machine learning models learn from both true threats and false positives, adjusting rule sensitivity and specificity over time. This feedback mechanism enables the system to improve threat detection accuracy while simultaneously reducing false positives through iterative optimization.

Inventive Principle:
Principle #23Feedback

Solution Approach 2:

The patent dynamically adjusts security rule parameters such as sensitivity thresholds, confidence levels, and detection criteria based on learned patterns. The system modifies these parameters in real-time to optimize the balance between detecting actual threats and avoiding false positives, allowing adaptive tuning without manual configuration.

Inventive Principle:
Principle #35Parameter changes

3Reliability

If multiple data feeds are analyzed, then detection comprehensiveness improves, but processing time increases

Engineering Contradiction:
Improvedetection comprehensivenessVSAvoidprocessing time
Core Design Contradiction:
ReliabilityVSLoss of time

Solution Approach 1:

The patent divides the analysis of multiple data feeds into segmented processing stages. Different machine learning models specialize in analyzing specific data types (network traffic, system logs, threat intelligence), processing them in parallel or staged sequences. This segmentation enables comprehensive multi-source analysis while reducing overall processing time through specialized, optimized processing paths for each data type.

Inventive Principle:
Principle #1Segmentation
