ABNORMALITY DETERMINATION SYSTEM - A simplified explanation of the abstract

This abstract first appeared for US patent application 20240208515 titled 'ABNORMALITY DETERMINATION SYSTEM

The patent application describes an abnormality determination system consisting of a first apparatus and a server apparatus. The first apparatus transmits information indicating an abnormality and an evaluation value to the server apparatus when a valid certificate of a second apparatus and the information based on the certificate suggest an abnormality. The server apparatus then determines whether to revoke the certificate of the second apparatus based on the received information and evaluation value.

  • The system involves a first apparatus transmitting abnormality information and evaluation values to a server apparatus.
  • The server apparatus determines if a certificate should be revoked based on the received abnormality information and evaluation values.
  • The technology aims to improve security measures by promptly identifying and addressing abnormalities in certificates.
  • This innovation streamlines the process of detecting and responding to potential security threats within a network.
  • By automating the evaluation of abnormality information, the system enhances the overall security posture of the network.

Potential Applications: - Network security systems - Certificate management platforms - IoT device monitoring

Problems Solved: - Efficient detection of abnormalities in certificates - Streamlining security response processes - Enhancing overall network security

Benefits: - Improved security posture - Timely response to potential threats - Automation of abnormality evaluation processes

Commercial Applications: Title: Enhanced Network Security System for Certificate Management This technology can be utilized by cybersecurity companies to offer advanced network security solutions to businesses looking to safeguard their digital assets. It can also be integrated into IoT device management systems to enhance the security of connected devices.

Questions about the Technology: 1. How does the system differentiate between normal and abnormal certificate information? The system uses the evaluation value to determine the severity of the abnormality and make decisions based on predefined criteria.

2. Can this technology be integrated into existing network security systems? Yes, this technology is designed to be compatible with various network security systems, allowing for seamless integration and enhanced security measures.


Original Abstract Submitted

an abnormality determination system includes a first apparatus and a server apparatus. the first apparatus includes a transmission unit configured to, in a case where a certificate of a second apparatus is valid and information which is based on the certificate indicates an abnormality, transmit the information indicating the abnormality and an evaluation value of the information indicating the abnormality to the server apparatus. the server apparatus includes a second determination unit configured to determine whether the certificate of the second apparatus is to be revoked based on the information indicating the abnormality and the evaluation value of the information indicating the abnormality in a case where the information indicating the abnormality and the evaluation value of the information indicating the abnormality is received from the first apparatus.
