DISPLAY APPARATUS, DISPLAY SYSTEM, DISPLAY METHOD, AND NON-TRANSITORY COMPUTER-READABLE MEDIUM - A simplified explanation of the abstract

This abstract first appeared for US patent application 20240095345 titled 'DISPLAY APPARATUS, DISPLAY SYSTEM, DISPLAY METHOD, AND NON-TRANSITORY COMPUTER-READABLE MEDIUM

Simplified Explanation

The display apparatus described in the abstract is designed to acquire configuration information of an information system with multiple nodes, determine the display method of security information concerning a node based on security characteristics, and display the security information accordingly.

  • Acquiring unit: Acquires configuration information of an information system with multiple nodes.
  • Determining unit: Determines the display method of security information based on security characteristics of attackable and preventive elements.
  • Display unit: Displays security information of a node in accordance with the determined display method.

Potential Applications

This technology can be applied in network security systems, data centers, and IT infrastructure management tools.

Problems Solved

This technology helps in efficiently displaying security information of nodes in complex information systems, enhancing overall security monitoring and management.

Benefits

- Improved visualization of security information - Enhanced security monitoring capabilities - Streamlined management of security elements in information systems

Potential Commercial Applications

- Security software development companies - IT infrastructure management companies - Network security service providers

Possible Prior Art

One possible prior art could be the use of visualization tools in network security management software to display security information of individual nodes in a network.

What are the potential limitations of this technology in real-world applications?

The abstract does not mention the scalability of the display apparatus to handle large information systems with a high number of nodes. This could be a potential limitation in real-world applications where the system needs to display security information for a large-scale network.

How does this technology compare to existing security information display methods in terms of efficiency and accuracy?

The abstract does not provide a direct comparison of this technology with existing security information display methods. It would be beneficial to know how this display apparatus improves efficiency and accuracy compared to traditional methods to understand its advantages better.


Original Abstract Submitted

a display apparatus () includes an acquiring unit () configured to acquire configuration information of an information system that includes a plurality of nodes; a determining unit () configured to determine a display method of displaying an object of security information display concerning a node in the acquired configuration information, based on a security characteristic of an attackable element used to attack the object of security information display and a security characteristic of a preventive measure element preventing an attack on the object of security information display; and a display unit () configured to, when displaying a system configuration of the information system, display the object of security information display in accordance with the determined display method.
