The idea dawned on Glenn Kaufman one day in the lab. His computer was running a pattern- recognition biometrics programa piece of software that measured how hard and fast he typed, then used it like a fingerprint to confirm his identity the next time he logged on. Amid the clicking and clacking of keys, he remembered seeing something on the news about smart guns that know their owners grip and wont fire for anybody else. He got to thinking:If that sort of thing works on computer keyboards and guns, it must work on other things too.I thought that maybe if there was a pattern to gripping a gun grip, maybe there was a pattern to gripping a mouse, he said. Kaufman, a Raytheon cybersecurity engineer, got to work. Four years later, he was awarded U.S. Patent No. 8,762,734 for the Biometric Pressure Grip a sensor that mea-sures how hard and how tightly someone holds a mouse, then uses that information as part of a multi-step login process. Kaufmans invention is among hundreds of innovations company engineers are developing as Raytheons cybersecurity business surges in an age of larger and increasingly destructive computer-system breaches.A culture of creationRaytheon is a technology leader across all aspects of the cyber domain, said Jeff Snyder,vice president of Raytheons cyber programs. If we see a gap that we have in cyber technology, we will either invest internally to develop it . . . or well find the right partner. And our leadership believes in this technology area as it is so critical to protect our products, Raytheons infrastructure, and our important cyber clients.Major Raytheon cybersecurity innovations include:SureViewSoftware that guards against insider threats or abuses of computer systems by people authorized to access them. The system alerts IT security to warning signs such as employees downloading files at unusual timesand also provides a detailed, video-quality recording of computer users activity. Advanced Threat Protection (formerly RShield)An advanced malware detection system that, for example, segregates incoming emails and downloads, putting them through a battery of tests to root out any malicious code. Raytheon announced at the 2014 Black Hat cybersecurity conference in Las Vegas that it is developing a major upgrade to the system. High-Speed GuardSoftware that provides fast, secure and automated transfer of complex data such as video between multiple classified networks. High-Speed Guard has been shown to transfer data at rates of more than nine gigabits per second.Net Maneuver CommanderA moving target system that protects a network by constantly rearranging it through the use of randomization algorithms. The technique keeps weak spots on the move, forcing hackers to relearn the entire system and rebuild their malware every time the system redraws the network. Kaufmans mouse is not yet part of any specific security system. But inventions like his could have potential as part of a layered security system that uses a security token and a password or a passphrase. Kaufmans research showed a persons mouse grip is a surprisingly effective biometric identifier. It turns out only about one in 10,000 people place their fingers in exactly the same spot and exert precisely the same amount of pressure. Its not only a reliable identifier, but its also harder to defeat, Kaufman said. I can defeat fingerprints, because I can take it from something else like a glass . . . once Ive done that, all I have to do is override the system by using a mockup of your fingerprint. Because this is a pattern-recognition biometric, its harder to defeat.Inventions like Kaufmans smart mouse show Raytheon engineers are gearing up to meet the growing demands of cybersecurity, Snyder said. Private companies such as retailers and utility providers are realizing they need military-style protection for their data and networks and Snyder said building that protection assessing a clients needs, designing a system and monitoring it around the clock is something Raytheon already does for government agencies.That continuum, that delivery continuum, applies in the federal and commercial marketplace exactly the same, he said. No differentits all the same.
