MUMBAI, India, Jan. 9 -- Intellectual Property India has published a patent application (202511114257 A) filed by University Of Petroleum And Energy Studies, Dehradun, Uttarakhand, on Nov. 20, 2025, for 'a portable and distributed vulnerability scanning system.'

Inventor(s) include Anurag Negi; Dhruv Jain; Mohammand Wasi; and Dr. Chandra Mani Sharma.

The application for the patent was published on Jan. 9, under issue no. 02/2026.

According to the abstract released by the Intellectual Property India: "The present disclosure describes a system for vulnerability assessment, featuring a microprocessor-based device. This device executes a scanner engine to conduct network scans, identifying open ports and hosts, and web vulnerability scans, detecting issues such as injection vulnerabilities. The system processes generated scan reports, filters vulnerabilities by severity level, focusing on high-severity findings, and structures results into a compact data format. This data format conveys summaries like total open ports and hosts status, alongside detailed findings such as vulnerability IDs, types, and exploit status. The system also includes a local graphical user interface for scan initiation and result display, and a cloud system for receiving structured results via a secure application programming interface, storing them, and generating alerts and reports. A web-based dashboard provides remote visualization. This portable system offers cost-effective, adaptable, and efficient vulnerability management for diverse environments."
