Abstract: A raising assembly for use with a gangway connected for rotation between a raised stowed position and a lowered deployed position. The raising assembly comprises at least one fluid actuated cylinder connected to the gangway. A raising actuator is operative to cause operation of the cylinder in a manner that rotates the gangway toward the stowed position while the raising actuator is continuously activated by an operator.

Abstract: Disclosed is a platform that manages worker users in a temporary staffing environment via an artificial machine learning model. The temporary staffing platform matches available workers to available shifts/gigs. Additional features include generating provisional or near-miss matches and informing workers how to turn those near-misses into full matches, plotting a gig-career path to develop additional skills, gamify development, and automatically generate resumes. The platform generates a set of skill tags associated with each shift/gig performed by the user. Designing of resume text files by the artificial machine learning model includes procedurally generated descriptions of experience the a user has based on the recording of each shift/gig performed by the user and the skill tags associated with each recorded shift/gig, wherein a format of the resume text file is formulated by the artificial machine learning model evaluating a mix of skill tags and employers amassed by the user.

Abstract: Dynamically tailored trust for secure application-server networking and advanced enterprise security is provided. A system can individually assess the security posture of each application connecting to the Internet from each client device in an enterprise. For each application, the system tailors a security mode of the Internet connection based on the security posture of the application. Assessment of the security posture of an application is a comprehensive inventory of the security of the application, the security of the device hosting the application, the rights and security of the user, security attributes of the intended service or website being accessed, the security of the communication channel, and so forth. A network-based controller communicates with an agent running within a secure boot mode of each client device to select a security mode for application-service connection, including lean-trust direct access to the Internet, secure VPN-like access, or no access to the Internet.
