  • Publication number: 20200287915
    Abstract: Methods, systems, and media are shown for creating and deploying honey tokens for intrusion detection in a remote computing resource system. Resource modules provisioned for a tenant are identified for intrusion detection. For each identified resource modules, a provisioned resource having a corresponding access credential is allocated and the access credential is deployed in the identified resource module. A data entry is created in a token mapping store that identifies the access credential and the resource module. Access logs are scanned to detect access attempts. For each access attempt, the token mapping store is searched for a data entry with an access credential that matches the access credential of the access attempt. If found, an alert is generated that includes the identified resource module of the matching data entry.

  • Publication number: 20200184973
    Abstract: A system may include a camera configured to obtain an image of a user, at least one processor, and at least one non-transitory computer-readable media communicatively coupled to the at least one processor. The non-transitory computer-readable media configured to store one or more instructions that when executed cause or direct the system to perform operations. The operations may include establish a communication session between the system and a device. The communication session may be configured such that the device provides audio for the system. The operations may further include compare the image to a particular user image associated with the system and select a first method of transcription generation from among two or more methods of transcription generation based on the comparison of the image to the particular user image. The operations may also include present, a transcription of the audio generated using the selected first method of transcription generation.

  • Publication number: 20200140837
    Abstract: A di-enzymatic chimeric endolysin includes a primary enzymatic active domain including a primary protein sequence and that cleaves a glycosidic, peptide, or amide bond; a secondary enzymatic active domain disposed at a C-terminus end of the di-enzymatic chimeric endolysin and including a secondary protein sequence that, in combination with the primary enzymatic active domain, synergistically cleaves glycosidic, peptide, or amide bonds in a peptidoglycan; a cell wall binding domain including a recognition sequence that is sequentially interposed between the primary protein sequence and the secondary protein sequence and that binds to a cell wall; and a tertiary structure such that the primary enzymatic active domain faces and opposes the secondary enzymatic active domain in the di-enzymatic chimeric endolysin for synergistic cleavage of the peptidoglycan.

  • Patent number: 10605758
    Abstract: A method and device are provided for measuring a level of a clinically relevant analyte (such as glucose) in a fluid (such as blood). The device includes a flow path for conducting said fluid through the device; a detection chamber arranged on said flow path; and detector means arranged to detect analyte levels in the fluid in said chamber, wherein: said detection chamber contains a predetermined amount of an analyte such that that analyte mixes with fluid in the detection chamber to form, at the detector means, a calibration sample of the fluid at a time after the arrival of the fluid in said detection chamber, and said detector means is arranged to detect a first analyte level of an unadulterated sample of the fluid at a first time which is before the formation of said calibration sample and to detect a second analyte level of said calibration sample at a second time which is after the formation of said calibration sample.

  • Publication number: 20200026574
    Abstract: A hybrid configuration engine and associated method for reducing the complexity and burden of configuring rich coexistence between an on-premise solution and a cloud-based solution is described herein and illustrated in the accompanying figures. The hybrid configuration engine determines the current state of the on-premise solution and the cloud-based solution and learns the desired configuration state. After obtaining the current and desired configuration state information, the hybrid configuration engine determines and automatically performs steps to reach the desired configuration state. Finally, the hybrid configuration engine provides instructions describing the manual steps needed to reach the desired configuration state.

  • Publication number: 20190011324
    Abstract: In a method of assessing the condition of a tubular member, for example a flexible riser, an inert fluid is flowed from a fluid source through a conduit connected to a laminar flow device, which can determine volumetric and/or mass flow rate of the fluid. The fluid is flowed through the laminar flow device into the riser annulus, and flow continues until the fluid pressure within the annulus stabilises. The volume of fluid flowed into the annulus offers an indication of the integrity of the riser, for example, whether any fluid is present therein.
