Abstract: Nanoporous oxygen reduction catalyst material comprising at least 90 collectively Pt, Ni, and Ta. The nanoporous oxygen reduction catalyst material is useful, for example, in fuel cell membrane electrode assemblies.

Abstract: In a threat management platform, a number of endpoints log events in an event data recorder. A local agent filters this data and feeds a filtered data stream to a central threat management facility. The central threat management facility can locally or globally tune filtering by local agents based on the current data stream, and can query local event data recorders for additional information where necessary or helpful in threat detection or forensic analysis. The central threat management facility also stores and deploys a number of security tools such as a web-based user interface supported by machine learning models to identify potential threats requiring human intervention and other models to provide human-readable context for evaluating potential threats.

Abstract: An authentication model dynamically adjusts authentication factors required for access to a remote resource based on changes to a risk score for a user, a device, or some combination of these. For example, the authentication model may conditionally specify the number and type of authentication factors required by a user/device pair, and may dynamically alter authentication requirements based on changes to a current risk assessment for the user/device while the remote resource is in use.

Abstract: Where a single networked security service supports multiple enterprises, this security service can operate as a shared source of trust so that security devices associated with one enterprise can provide authenticated, policy-based management of computing devices associated with another enterprise. For example, an enterprise firewall can advantageously manage network access for a new device based on a shared and authenticated relationship with the networked security service.

Abstract: A method comprises storing pixel data in a frame buffer, retrieving the pixel data from the frame buffer and processing at least one pixel value of the pixel data to generate an output pixel bit stream. The method further comprises storing pixel values in a first update buffer. The pixel values are derived from the output pixel bit stream. The method also comprises providing the pixel values from the first update buffer across a network to a remote graphics system.

Abstract: A rotary valve (10) of an internal combustion engine, of the hollow cylindrical type for rotation in the bore (20) of the cylinder head of the engine, the valve (10) having oil and gas seals (17,14) to prevent leakage of oil to the combustion chamber and leakage of gas from the combustion chamber, each gas seal being of the piston ring type and each oil seal consisting of a non-rotating annular member (17), a seal (21) between it and the bore in which the valve (10) rotates, an annular cavity (24) lying peripherally in a small radial clearance between the valve (10) and the bore (20) and extending between the gas sealing ring (14) and the seal (21) on the annular member (17), the annular member (17) having a substantially radially disposed face (18) arranged to seal slidingly against a radially disposed face (19) on the valve (10), the quality of these faces (18,19) being such as to allow migration of oil between them but sufficient when combined with the radial depth of the faces (18,19) to prevent oil from
