A Security automation system () configured for security management of an Information Technology (IT) system (), the security automation system using machine learning (ML). The system comprises a Threat engine (), a Risk engine (), a Policy engine () and a Security Adaptation engine (). The Threat engine () comprises a threat catalog and detection rules for identifying threat events, wherein the detection rules are automatically adjusted and modified based on information collected from the managed IT system.

Security automation system

An apparatus and method for creating a finite blockchain is provided. The blockchain comprises a genesis block that is the first block of the blockchain. The genesis block comprising a genesis expiry time. The method comprises the steps of creating a reincarnation block when a predefined condition is satisfied and appending it to the blockchain; determining whether the genesis expiry time has elapsed based on an expiry period; if the genesis expiry time has elapsed then identifying a first reincarnation block; if the first reincarnation block is identified then deleting all the blocks preceding the first reincarnation block including the genesis block in the block chain.

Method and apparatus for creating a finite blockchain

A method of verifying the integrity of a virtual machine in a cloud computing deployment comprises: creating a virtual machine image derived from a trusted virtual machine, wherein the trusted virtual machine has a Keyless Signature Infrastructure signature stored in a signature store; and verifying that a computation resource can be trusted. If it is verified that a computation resource can be trusted, the method further comprises: submitting the virtual machine image to the trusted computation resource; checking a signature of the virtual machine image against the stored signature of the trusted virtual machine; launching the virtual machine image on the trusted computation resource, and creating a Keyless Signature Infrastructure signature of the virtual machine image; and storing the signature of the virtual machine image in a signature store.

Virtual machine integrity

The disclosure relates to a method () of handling a hash-tree based data signature. The method () is performed in a first device () and comprises: receiving (), from a second device (), a data signature generation request, the request comprising an indication on type of storage of a generated data signature; generating (), in response to the data signature generation request, the data signature B using a hash-tree based data signing method; and providing (), to the second device (), a reference C to the generated data signature, wherein the generated data signature is obtainable by means of the reference C. The disclosure also relates to a method in a second device, corresponding devices, computer programs and computer program products.

Methods and devices for handling hash-tree based data signatures

A method and a wireless transmit/receive unit (WTRU) (), including a universal subscriber identity module USIM (), for identifying a closed subscriber group (CSG) cell are disclosed. The WTRU () receives a broadcast from a cell including a cell identifier (ID). If the cell ID is associated with a CSG cell, the WTRU () determines whether the CSG ID is programmed in the USIM (). The cell broadcast may include a single bit information element (IE) indicating that the cell is a CSG cell. If the cell ID is a CSG ID, the cell ID may further include a plurality of fields which indicate at least one of a country, a region, an operator, and a home evolved Node-B (HeNB) number. The cell broadcast may further include a bit indicating whether the CSG cell is public or private. The cell broadcast may further include a bit indicating that emergency calls are allowed from all users.

This invention relates to a group of novel chelating agents, novel chelates, biomolecules labeled with said chelates or chelating agents as well as solid supports conjugated with said chelates, chelating agents or labeled biomolecules. Especially the invention relates to novel chelating agents useful in solid phase synthesis of oligonucleotides or oligopeptides and the oligonucleotides and oligopeptides so obtained.

Chelating agents and highly luminescent and stable chelates and their use

The present invention relates to a system and a method for charging in a communication network and to a communication network charging server. The system comprises a client () associated with the network for providing services to subscribers associated with the network. The charging server () is adapted to handle subscriber account information, and the said client () is adapted to send a first charging request message for a service, to the charging server () before the service is provided, using an on-line charging protocol (). The charging server () is also adapted to perform pre-reservation of an amount of resources from the subscriber's account, wherein the amount depends on a requested amount included in the message about the service, and to return an answer message including information indicating whether an amount of resources is pre-reserved from said subscriber account for enabling usage of the service to the client () using the on-line charging protocol ().

System and method for charging in a communications network and a communications network charging server

A method of charging a subscriber for using GPRS services provided by a mobile communications network. The method is based on including a flag in PDP activation or modification messages sent from a UE used by the subscriber to a GGSN of the network; the flag indicates whether the PDP context is to be used for signaling data or user data. The flag is examined within the network or at a node external to the network; if the flag indicates that the PDP context is to be used for carrying signaling data, a first charging regime is applied to the subscriber for establishing and using the context and, if the flag indicates that the PDP context is to be used for carrying user data, a different charging regime is applied to the subscriber for establishing and/or using the context.

Charging in a communications network

A method of routing Call Detail Records (CDRs) for a subscriber from a foreign network to a home network while the subscriber is roaming in the foreign network. The method comprises transferring from the home network to the foreign network during registration of the subscriber with an exchange of the foreign network, an address of a billing system of the home network in a signalling network to which said exchange and said billing system are coupled. Said address is associated with CDRs generated by said exchange in respect of the subscriber, and the CDRs transferred from said exchange to said billing system over said signalling network on the basis of the associated address.

Transmission of call detail records in a telecommunications system

The present invention relates in general to communication networks and more specifically to a system and a method for charging in a communication network, especially in an IP Multimedia network. The new charging system allows charging principles used in traditional telecom networks to be applied also in IP Multimedia networks.

System and method for charging in a communication network

The invention relates to an enhancement solution for an assay technology using lanthanide ions or their chelates as labels and dissociative fluorescence enhancement as a tool for detection, wherein said enhancement solution comprises a &#x3b2;-diketone of formula I wherein Ris an aryl, optionally mono- or multi-substituted, and Ris a straight or branched alkyl chain with 2 to 9 carbon atoms substituted with four or more fluorine atoms. The invention further relates to a bioaffinity assay using lanthanide ions or their chelates as labels and dissociative fluorescence enhancement as a tool for detection comprising the use of said enhancement solution.
