Solution Overview

Problem

Threat mitigation systems face challenges in efficiently obtaining and processing information from multiple security-relevant subsystems, often requiring unique queries for each subsystem, which is cumbersome and inefficient.

Innovation Solution

A computer-implemented method that establishes connectivity with multiple security-relevant subsystems, processes initial notifications using a generative AI model and formatting script to produce human-readable reports, and automatically executes recommended actions to address security events.

Engineering Contradictions & Design Principles

VSEngineering Contradiction Analysis

1Loss of information

If a unique query is formulated for each security-relevant subsystem, then information can be obtained from each subsystem, but the process becomes cumbersome and inefficient

Engineering Contradiction:
Improveinformation completenessVSAvoidquery formulation time
Core Design Contradiction:
Loss of informationVSLoss of time

Solution Approach 1:

The patent applies universality by creating a universal query language that can interface with multiple different security-relevant subsystems through a standardized protocol. Instead of requiring separate query formulations for each subsystem, the system uses a single unified query language (such as JSON) that can be processed by all subsystems, thereby reducing query formulation time while maintaining information completeness across diverse security subsystems

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

2Adaptability or versatility

If multiple security-relevant subsystems are integrated, then comprehensive security monitoring is achieved, but system complexity increases

Engineering Contradiction:
Improvesubsystem integration capabilityVSAvoidquery formulation complexity
Core Design Contradiction:
Adaptability or versatilityVSDevice complexity

Solution Approach 1:

The patent employs an intermediary approach by introducing a universal query language as a mediator between the threat mitigation system and multiple security subsystems. This universal query language acts as a standardized interface layer that translates high-level security queries into subsystem-specific protocols, allowing comprehensive subsystem integration while simplifying the query formulation process for users

Inventive Principle:
Principle #24Intermediary (Mediator)

3Speed

If automated action execution is implemented, then response speed to security events improves, but system complexity increases

Engineering Contradiction:
Improveresponse speedVSAvoidautomation mechanism complexity
Core Design Contradiction:
SpeedVSDevice complexity

Solution Approach 1:

The patent applies preliminary action by pre-defining recommended actions within the universal query language response structure. When security events are detected, the system automatically executes pre-planned actions rather than requiring real-time decision-making, thereby achieving fast response speeds while keeping the automation mechanism relatively simple and maintainable

Inventive Principle:
Principle #10Preliminary action

AI summary

A computer-implemented method, computer program product and computing system for establishing connectivity with a plurality of security-relevant subsystems within a computing platform; receiving an initial notification of a security event from one of the security-relevant subsystems, wherein the initial notification includes a computer-readable language portion that defines one or more specifics of the security event; processing the initial notification using a generative AI model and a formatting script to produce a summarized human-readable report for the initial notification, wherein the summarized human-readable report defines one or more recommended actions; and automatically executing some or all of the recommended actions to address the security event.
