Real-Time intrusion detection alert correlation and attack scenario extraction based on the prerequisite consequence approach
Alert correlation systems attempt to discover the relations among alerts produced by one or more intrusion detection systems to determine the attack scenarios and their main motivations. In this paper a new IDS alert correlation method is proposed that can be used to detect attack scenarios in real-time. The proposed method is based on a causal approach due to the strength of causal methods in ...
متن کاملPractical considerations in the use of real-time continuous glucose monitoring alerts.
BACKGROUND The safety and efficacy of real-time (RT) continuous glucose monitoring (CGM) systems in the management of type 1 diabetes are increasingly apparent. Clinical trials have demonstrated the utility of these systems in lowering hemoglobin A1c, minimizing hypoglycemia, and reducing glycemic variability. These RT systems allow patients to conveniently monitor their glucose levels by displ...
متن کاملManagement of Patient-Reported Outcome (PRO) Alerts in Clinical Trials: A Cross Sectional Survey.
BACKGROUND Assessment of patient-reported outcomes (PROs) provides valuable information to inform patient-centered care, but may also reveal 'PRO alerts': psychological distress or physical symptoms that may require an immediate response. Ad-hoc management of PRO alerts in clinical trials may result in suboptimal patient care or potentially bias trial results. To gain greater understanding of c...
متن کاملWireless clinical alerts for physiologic, laboratory and medication data
A fully interfaced clinical information system (CIS) contains physiologic, laboratory, blood gas, medication and other data that can be used as the information base for a comprehensive alerting system. Coupled with an event driven rules engine, a CIS can generate clinical alerts which may both prevent medical errors and assist caregivers in responding to critical events in a timely way. The aut...
متن کاملA trial of a real-time alert for clinical deterioration in patients hospitalized on general medical wards.
BACKGROUND With limited numbers of intensive care unit (ICU) beds available, increasing patient acuity is expected to contribute to episodes of inpatient deterioration on general wards. OBJECTIVE To prospectively validate a predictive algorithm for clinical deterioration in general-medical ward patients, and to conduct a trial of real-time alerts based on this algorithm. DESIGN Randomized, ...
