MDRwatchdog Patent Portfolio
MDRwatchdog holds 11 patent-pending inventions. No other MXDR platform has filed on quantum-resistant audit chains, above-binary firmware motion detection, zero-knowledge credential rotation, continuous Proof-of-Control\u2122, autonomous defiance mode, UEFI resident pre-boot security modules, and single-stream multi-framework compliance suite generation. All methods are novel. All are patent pending.
Firmware Sentinel™
Above-Binary Firmware Motion Detection
Detection of firmware-layer threats by monitoring OS-observable signals produced by firmware activity, without modification of firmware.
Quantum Audit Chain™
PQC-Sealed Tamper-Evident Audit Ledger
SHA-256 hash-chained audit records dual-signed with Ed25519 and ML-DSA-87 (NIST FIPS 204), independently verifiable without provider access.
MDRwatchdog Vault™
Zero-Knowledge MXDR-Integrated Credential Rotation
Browser-side AES-256-GCM encryption of credentials with MXDR-integrated rotation and PQC-sealed rotation evidence chain.
UEFI Resident Motion Detection
Firmware-Layer MXDR Integration
UEFI DXE and SMM-resident detection agent with MXDR platform integration and cryptographic evidence chain.
Proof-of-Control™
Continuous BAS Against Live Detection Engine
Synthetic attack probes evaluated against the live detection engine function with PQC-sealed pass/fail records mapped to compliance controls as a single atomic operation.
LiveSSP™
Dynamic SSP & POA&M from Live Telemetry
System Security Plan and Plan of Action and Milestones generated directly from continuous endpoint telemetry with control coverage calculated from sealed audit evidence.
BlastShield™
Two-Process Agent with Cryptographic Blast Radius Containment
High-privilege collector and low-privilege shipper connected via named pipe, with mathematically bounded network egress and architecture verified in the tamper-evident audit chain.
Defiance Engine™
Autonomous Mode with Cryptographic Queue Drain
Autonomous local detection with SQLite event queuing during cloud disconnection, cryptographically continuous audit chain across defiance period, reconnect, and queue drain.
Compliance Artifact Generation™
Two-Layer Firmware & OS Detection with Autonomous Compliance Output
Two-layer UEFI DXE and OS-layer detection architecture sealing telemetry into a PQC-signed audit chain simultaneously mapped to multiple compliance frameworks, generating compliance artifacts autonomously without human attestation.
UEFI Resident Module™
Pre-Boot Firmware Security Module — DXE Driver + SMM Handler
Two firmware-resident UEFI modules establishing cryptographic behavioral baselines before the OS loads via memory CRC, RDTSC timing, SMI frequency monitoring, and UEFI variable write pattern interception.
Assessment Factory™
Single-Stream Multi-Framework Complete Compliance Suite
Single continuous security telemetry stream producing a complete compliance document suite across multiple distinct regulatory frameworks simultaneously, each document derived from the same sealed evidence chain without per-framework data collection.
Prior Art & Priority Date
All eleven inventions were conceived, implemented, and publicly disclosed by Darrell Rhodes d/b/a MDRwatchdog on September 8\u20139, 2026. Supporting evidence includes: timestamped GitHub commits, Railway deploy logs, Cloudflare Pages deployment receipts, EDK2 UEFI source files, and a PQC-sealed audit ledger (Block #1, 24,432 records, sealed September 7, 2026).
