Assignee: THE MITRE CORPORATION
Field: Telecommunications (Electrical engineering)
Classification: CPC G  H | IPC G  H

Claim 0:
1. A timing error measuring unit comprising:
a processor configured to:
receive first timing data from a validated data source;
receive second timing data from a distributed coordinated data source; and
generate an alert message based on a threat detection value being greater than a threat detection threshold;

a timing comparator configured to:
compare the first timing data with the second timing data for an adjustable interval of time; and
determine the threat detection value based on the comparing, wherein the threat detection value is associated with a potential anomaly in a timing of the validated data source or the distributed coordinated data source;

an output device configured to display the alert message; and
a clock module configured to initiate a cycle counter to track a number of timing pulses in the first timing data during the adjustable interval of time, wherein the threat detection value is based on a comparison of the number of timing pulses to a predetermined expected number of cycles.
