Solution Overview

Problem

Conventional cyberattack solutions are high-cost, complex, and provide historical, not real-time information, failing to address the growing frequency and complexity of cyberattacks, and are limited to reviewing software vulnerabilities, leaving organizations unprepared to defend their environments.

Innovation Solution

A comprehensive, integrated platform utilizing infinitely branching automation to identify and remediate security vulnerabilities in real-time, covering core pillars of the cybersecurity Risk Management Framework (RMF), including Software Vulnerabilities, Security Controls, Asset Lifecycle, and Operational Process, with a security module that dynamically adjusts to understand use-case scenarios and applies corrective actions.

Engineering Contradictions & Design Principles

VSEngineering Contradiction Analysis

1Reliability

If conventional security solutions are used, then security vulnerability review is provided, but real-time information and adaptive response are not achieved

Engineering Contradiction:
Improvesecurity defense capabilityVSAvoidresponse time
Core Design Contradiction:
ReliabilityVSLoss of time

Solution Approach 1:

The system performs preliminary actions by pre-configuring multiple logic flows and decision trees that automatically execute when security events are detected. These pre-established analysis paths enable immediate response without waiting for manual assessment, thus reducing response time while maintaining reliable security detection.

Inventive Principle:
Principle #10Preliminary action

Solution Approach 2:

The system implements continuous feedback loops where security module outputs are fed back into the logic flows for ongoing analysis. This real-time feedback mechanism allows the system to continuously monitor and respond to security threats, providing both timely detection and sustained reliability in security defense.

Inventive Principle:
Principle #23Feedback

2Measurement precision

If conventional security tools are deployed, then vulnerability assessment is performed, but system complexity and cost increase

Engineering Contradiction:
Improvevulnerability detection accuracyVSAvoidsecurity system complexity
Core Design Contradiction:
Measurement precisionVSDevice complexity

Solution Approach 1:

The security system is segmented into distinct functional components: a security module for data collection, multiple specialized logic flows for different analysis dimensions, and a decision engine for final determination. This segmentation allows each component to focus on specific tasks, improving detection accuracy through specialized analysis while managing overall system complexity through modular architecture.

Inventive Principle:
Principle #1Segmentation

Solution Approach 2:

The logic flows are designed with multi-functionality to handle various security assessment tasks using a unified framework. The same logic flow structure can analyze different types of security data and apply multiple assessment criteria, reducing the need for separate specialized tools and thereby decreasing overall system complexity while maintaining comprehensive detection capabilities.

Inventive Principle:
Principle #6Universality (Multi-functionality)

3Loss of information

If historical security data is analyzed, then past vulnerabilities are identified, but real-time security posture is not visible

Engineering Contradiction:
Improvesecurity information completenessVSAvoidinformation freshness
Core Design Contradiction:
Loss of informationVSLoss of time

Solution Approach 1:

The security module continuously collects data from assets and the logic flows continuously analyze security posture in real-time. This continuous operation ensures that both historical trends and current security states are captured, providing complete security information without time delays. The uninterrupted analysis maintains up-to-date security visibility while preserving historical context.

Inventive Principle:
Principle #20Continuity of useful action

4Measurement precision

If manual security review processes are used, then detailed analysis is possible, but productivity and scalability are limited

Engineering Contradiction:
Improvesecurity analysis depthVSAvoidsecurity assessment throughput
Core Design Contradiction:
Measurement precisionVSProductivity

Solution Approach 1:

The system performs self-service through automated logic flows that independently execute security analysis without manual intervention. The decision engine automatically processes security data, evaluates multiple criteria, and generates security posture determinations. This automation maintains deep analysis capability through comprehensive logic flow evaluation while dramatically increasing assessment throughput and enabling scalable deployment across numerous assets.

Inventive Principle:
Principle #25Self-service
