is to greatly assist in cyber attack "predictive analysis", automatically
monitor security risks, implement/update security policies, enforce/update
security standards, generate automated security updates to network defense
systems against "Advanced Evasion Techniques" (AET) cyber attacks, and to
provide instantaneous information sharing to all customers including
support of BIG DATA Analysis and securing CLOUD computing. All CARS and
CARSvr's were integrated with instant messaging NLB natural language
