Identification servers are small, perhaps embedded, systems that can be used as subsystems of a tracking and verification system. An identification server can obtain identification data when a trigger, called an identification event, occurs. The identification server can store the identification data in a database module with a key. The identification server can send a message containing the identification data or the key to a set of subscribing clients. Subscribing clients, such as a central database or a graphical user interface, are clients that subscribe to receive messages from the identification server. An identification server can trigger off of an identification message sent by another identification server.

Method for verification via information processing

A system and method analyzes queries in a computer network, and identifies problem-causing queries that could be harmful to the system. If a query does not match any queries in a database, the query is transmitted to its destination. If a query matches a query in the database, that query is blocked from transmission to the destination. If a query is transmitted to its destination, and it is later determined that query caused a problem on that destination, that query is added to the database of queries. In one embodiment, a query that does not cause any problems is written to a pool of current up-to-date backup databases that may be used if the main system goes down. In another embodiment, the system tests variants of a query that caused a problem at the destination to attempt to discover other queries that could cause a problem.

System and method for network security

In an embodiment, a computer-based service security system receives a communication such as a query. The system processes that query in a server, which may be referred to as a lead server, and creates a plurality of copies of that lead server. The query is transferred to the plurality of copies of the lead server when the query did not cause a problem in the lead server. The query is transferred to a learning server when the query caused a problem in the lead server. The lead server is replaced by one of the copies of the lead server when the query caused a problem on the lead server.

System and method for computer service security

A system for coordinating the activity of a plurality of humans in teams with a central automated controller having reasoning capability based on a predetermined set of criteria by sending messages to and from each of the humans. The controller processes input from each of the humans in accordance with programmed decision making capability to accomplish predetermined objectives and provide output to at least some of the humans to assess a situation, direct steps in response thereto and coordinate decisions based on a predetermined model and task assessment reasoning to determine the best way to accomplish the predetermined objectives. The coordinator assesses changes to the situation, and makes decisions about the various tasks to be performed and when they are to be begun. Outputs to the humans may be instructions, questions, information and combinations thereof.
