Engineering Contradictions & Design Principles

VSEngineering Contradiction Analysis

1Loss of information

If traditional GUIs are used to present cyber security data, then the information provided to network administrators is limited, but the system complexity and resource requirements remain high

Engineering Contradiction:
Improveinformation completenessVSAvoidsystem complexity
Core Design Contradiction:
Loss of informationVSDevice complexity

Solution Approach 1:

The patent segments cyber security data into multiple hierarchical levels including executive summaries for high-level oversight and detailed technical data for in-depth analysis. This segmentation allows the system to provide comprehensive information across different GUI views without overwhelming users, resolving the contradiction between information completeness and system complexity by organizing data in manageable segments accessible at different levels.

Inventive Principle:
Principle #1Segmentation

Solution Approach 2:

The patent introduces a new dimension of data presentation by implementing multi-level hierarchical views that allow users to navigate from summary-level information to detailed technical data. This dimensional approach enables the system to maintain information completeness while managing complexity through structured organization, allowing administrators to access comprehensive data only when needed rather than presenting it all at once.

Inventive Principle:
Principle #17Another dimension (Dimensionality change)

2Reliability

If comprehensive cyber security data is provided to network administrators, then better decision-making is enabled, but resources are wasted in processing and locating information

Engineering Contradiction:
Improvedecision-making qualityVSAvoidinformation processing time
Core Design Contradiction:
ReliabilityVSLoss of time

Solution Approach 1:

The patent implements preliminary action by pre-processing cyber security data into organized hierarchical structures with executive summaries prepared in advance. This allows network administrators to immediately access pre-processed, organized information without wasting time on data processing and location, while still providing comprehensive data when needed for reliable decision-making.

Inventive Principle:
Principle #10Preliminary action

Solution Approach 2:

The patent introduces an intermediary layer of data processing and organization that sits between raw security data and the administrator interface. This intermediary automatically processes, organizes, and structures comprehensive security data into hierarchical views, enabling reliable decision-making through complete information while eliminating the time waste associated with manual data processing and location.

Inventive Principle:
Principle #24Intermediary (Mediator)

3Measurement precision

If detailed cyber profile data is displayed, then thorough security assessment is achieved, but the ease of operation decreases due to information overload

Engineering Contradiction:
Improvesecurity assessment accuracyVSAvoiduser interface usability
Core Design Contradiction:
Measurement precisionVSEase of operation

Solution Approach 1:

The patent segments detailed cyber profile data into hierarchical categories and sub-categories, allowing thorough security assessment through structured organization. The segmentation enables users to navigate from high-level summaries to specific detailed metrics only when needed, maintaining ease of operation while preserving measurement precision through organized access to comprehensive security data.

Inventive Principle:
Principle #1Segmentation

Solution Approach 2:

The patent implements dynamic data presentation that adapts to user needs and interactions. The GUI allows administrators to dynamically expand or collapse data sections, drill down from summaries to detailed metrics, and customize views based on specific assessment needs. This dynamic approach maintains ease of operation while enabling thorough security assessment when required.

Inventive Principle:
Principle #15Dynamics

AI summary

An apparatus and method for intelligent processing of cyber security risk assessment data are provided. The apparatus includes a processor and a memory communicatively coupled to the at least a processor. The memory contains instructions configuring the at least a processor to receive a cyber profile associated with a digital environment. The processor is also configured to generate a cyber profile summary of the cyber profile data and generate a user interface data structure including the cyber profile summary and the cyber profile. A graphical user interface (GUI) is communicatively connected to the processor and the GUI is configured to receive the user interface data structure including the cyber profile summary and the cyber profile and display the cyber profile summary on a first portion of the GUI.
