Application: Pattern match-based detection in iot security (Patent ID: US20230370484A1)
The patent filed by Palo Alto Networks Inc. focuses on providing security for Internet of Things (IoT) devices by profiling these devices to limit the number of network signatures applicable and performing pattern matching based on the device's profile. The method involves associating patterns with IoT device profiles, detecting device events, generating activity data structures, determining device activity, applying patterns to detect undesirable behavior, and generating alerts when necessary.
The system described in the patent includes a processor that associates patterns with IoT device profiles, attributes profiles to devices, detects device events, generates activity data structures, determines device activity, applies patterns to detect undesirable behavior, and generates alerts accordingly. The method and system aim to enhance IoT security by efficiently monitoring and analyzing device behavior to identify any anomalies or undesirable activities, ultimately ensuring the safety and integrity of IoT networks.
