US Patent:

7512980, Mar 31, 2009

Filed:

May 26, 2005

Appl. No.:

10/908809

Inventors:

John A. Copeland - Atlanta GA, US
John Jerrim - Gainesville GA, US

Assignee:

Lancope, Inc. - Alpharetta GA

International Classification:

G06F 11/30

US Classification:

726 23, 726 22, 726 25, 726 26, 713151, 709203, 709224, 709227, 705 51

Abstract:

A flow-based intrusion detection system for detecting intrusions in computer communication networks. Data packets representing communications between hosts in a computer-to-computer communication network are processed and assigned to various client/server flows. Statistics are collected for each flow. Then, the flow statistics are analyzed to determine if the flow appears to be legitimate traffic or possible suspicious activity. A concern index value is assigned to each flow that appears suspicious. By assigning a value to each flow that appears suspicious and adding that value to the total concern index of the responsible host, it is possible to identify hosts that are engaged in intrusion activity. When the concern index value of a host exceeds a preset alarm value, an alert is issued and appropriate action can be taken.

Abstract:

A zone locking system detects unauthorized network usage internal to a firewall. The system determines unauthorized network usage by classifying internal hosts inside a firewall into zones. Certain specified zones are unauthorized to initiate client communications with other selected zones. However, zone override services can be designated for each associated internal zone, and thus, authorizing selected network services. An alarm or other appropriate action is taken upon the detection of unauthorized network usage.

Appl. No.:

10/062621

Inventors:

John Copeland - Atlanta GA, US

International Classification:

G06F011/30

US Classification:

713/201000, 709/224000

Abstract:

A port profiling system detects unauthorized network usage. The port profiling system analyzes network communications to determine the service ports being used. The system collects flow data from packet headers between two hosts or Internet Protocol (IP) addresses. The collected flow data is analyzed to determine the associated network service provided. A host data structure is maintained containing a profile of the network services normally associated with the host. If the observed network service is not one of the normal network services performed as defined by the port profile for that host, an alarm signal is generated and action can be taken based upon the detection of an Out of Profile network service. An Out of Profile operation can indicate the operation of a Trojan Horse program on the host, or the existence of a non-approved network application that has been installed.

US Patent:

45772070, Mar 18, 1986

Filed:

Dec 30, 1982

Appl. No.:

6/454550

Inventors:

John A. Copeland - Dunwoody GA

Assignee:

AT&T Bell Laboratories - Murray Hill NJ

International Classification:

H01L 3300

US Classification:

357 17

Abstract:

A dual wavelength optical source includes a monolithic integrated pair of series-opposition connected diodes, each fabricated for emitting light having a different wavelength than the other. Polarity of a common bias current conducted through the diodes is reversed for activating alternatively light emission from the diodes. Active emission regions of the diodes are stacked upon one another for efficiently coupling the resulting beams of the different wavelengths of emitted light through a surface into the core of a single mode optical fiber.

US Patent:

Filed:

Oct 30, 1989

Appl. No.:

7/429065

Inventors:

John A. Copeland - Dunwoody GA
John W. Jerrim - Duluth GA
Scott C. Swanson - Roswell GA

Assignee:

Hayes Microcomputer Products, Inc. - Norcross GA

International Classification:

G06F 1300

US Classification:

395250

Abstract:

A data flow controller (150) for monitoring and automatically controlling the flow of serial data from a remote transmitter to a host device. A serial communications card (11) provides an interface between a remote transmitter connected to a serial port connector (20) and a host device (10). The card (11) contains a UART (14) which has a buffer. A counter (151) counts the number of bytes received by the UART (14) since the last time that the host (10) read all the data in the buffer. If the number exceeds a predetermined portion of the buffer capacity the counter output (Q11) will go high, thereby disabling the counter and sending a control signal (DTR, RTS) to the remote transmitter to stop sending data. Once the host (10) has read all the data in the buffer the UART (14) provides a signal (-RXREADY) which resets the counter (151), thereby causing the output (Q11) to go low, thereby allowing the remote transmitter to resume sending data. The counter (151) is held in a reset state until the buffer has received at least one byte of data.
