Abstract: An inter-networking system and method that provides for access control identifier (ACI) metadata utilization for the life of a session even on unknown networks being traversed, allowing for ACI metadata utilization, reutilization, and modification in both the send and receive paths (bi-directional), and allowing for metadata transport over network segments requiring that ACIs be embedded at different layers of the communications stack.

Abstract: A method and system provide dynamic communities of interest on an end user workstation utilizing commercial off the shelf products, with central management and the ability for a users to log on only once (also known as “single sign on” or “SSO”). The software images that make up the virtual machine can be patched and updated with other required changes from a central storage area where the image can be administratively updated just once. A digital signature can be applied to the software images to ensure authenticity and integrity, along with determining whether a software image is up to date.

Abstract: A network prevents unauthorized users from gaining access to confidential information. The network has various workstations and servers connected by a common medium and through a router to the Internet. The network has two major components, a Network Security Center (NSC) and security network interface cards or devices. The NSC is an administrative workstation through which the network security officer manages the network as a whole as well as the individual security devices. The security devices are interposed between each of workstation, including the NSC, and the common medium and operate at a network layer (layer 3) of the protocol hierarchy. The network allows trusted users to access outside information, including the Internet, while stopping outside attackers at their point of entry. At the same time, the network limits an unauthorized insider to information defined in their particular security profile. The user may select which virtual network to access at any given time.

Abstract: A mandatory access control system and method that employs a policy manager subsystem with virtual data labeling (VDL) on the communications channel to allow aspects about the data to determine by whom and where such data can be accessed. When combined with a secure network system, the VDL system is able to base delivery decisions not only on destination address but also on the type of data that is to be delivered.

Abstract: A shielded print head assembly has a plurality of pieces that are self-aligned with one another. A base forms a ground plane, and includes a registry structure thereon which is preferably a pin extending above a top surface thereof. A circuit board is aligned by connecting inner surfaces of the circuit board around the pin to precisely locate a connector of the circuit board. A print head is located adjacent to the circuit board such that its connector is exactly adjacent to connector of the circuit board. An innerface connector is then used to connect between the circuit board connector and the print head connector, the interface connector being completely shielded by a cover. The interface connector is also held in self-alignment by the registry structure. The interface connector also has a top surface defining an insulation area, coupled against the cover which forms a ground plane. In this way, a shielded and self-aligned multi-piece print head is formed.
