SYSTEMS AND METHODS FOR OPERATOR ASSISTED RESPONSE TO REAL-TIME ALERTS IN CYBER-PHYSICAL SYSTEMS - A simplified explanation of the abstract

This abstract first appeared for US patent application 20240015169 titled 'SYSTEMS AND METHODS FOR OPERATOR ASSISTED RESPONSE TO REAL-TIME ALERTS IN CYBER-PHYSICAL SYSTEMS

Simplified Explanation

The patent application describes systems and methods for assisting operators in responding to real-time alerts in cyber-physical systems or other edge computing systems. Here is a simplified explanation of the patent:

  • An edge computing system in an enterprise computing network includes an edge computing system monitor.
  • The edge computing system monitor receives streaming analytic data from various components of the edge computing system.
  • The monitor analyzes the received data to identify patterns that may indicate malicious activity or other conditions requiring immediate or near-real-time response from the operator.
  • If any of the specified patterns are detected in the streaming data, an alert is triggered and sent to the operator of the edge computing system.

Potential applications of this technology:

  • Enhancing security in cyber-physical systems or edge computing systems by detecting and responding to malicious activity in real-time.
  • Improving the efficiency of operator-assisted responses to alerts by automating the detection of patterns indicative of potential threats or issues.

Problems solved by this technology:

  • Promptly identifying and responding to potential security threats or abnormal conditions in cyber-physical systems or edge computing systems.
  • Reducing the workload and response time for operators by automating the detection of patterns in streaming data.

Benefits of this technology:

  • Improved security and protection against cyber threats in edge computing systems.
  • Faster and more efficient response to alerts, minimizing potential damages or disruptions.
  • Enhanced operator productivity by automating the detection of patterns and reducing manual analysis.


Original Abstract Submitted

accordingly, systems and methods for facilitating operator assisted responses to real-time alerts in cyber-physical systems or other types of edge computing systems are provided. in one or more examples, an edge computing system of an enterprise computing network (where an operator is stationed to operate it), can comprise an edge computing system monitor. in one or more examples, the edge computing system monitor can receive streaming analytic data from one or more components of the edge computing system. in one or more examples, the edge computing system monitor can look for one or more patterns within the received data that can be indicative of malicious activity or other conditions that may warrant a real-time or near-real time response from the operator. in one or more examples, a detection of any of the specified patterns in the streaming data can trigger an alert to the operator of the edge computing system.
