Abstract: Disclosed is a process photometer arrangement (10) with a photometric cuvette unit (20) comprising a cuvette body (24) defining a cuvette cavity (25) and a combined sample inlet/outlet opening (34), a photometer light inlet window (60) and a photometer light outlet window (62). The cuvette body (24) is movably supported by a cuvette body support element (88) and the cuvette unit (20) is provided with a cuvette vibration device (80) for vibrating the cuvette body (24) to thereby quickly and homogenously mix a liquid sample volume (31) within the cuvette cavity (25) without any separate mixing element within the cuvette cavity. This allows a short mixing action within a microfluidic cuvette.

Abstract: This disclosure provides a network security architecture that permits installation of different software security products as virtual machines (VMs). By relying on a standardized data format and communication structure, a general architecture can be created and used to dynamically build and reconfigure interaction between both similar and dissimilar security products. Use of an integration scheme having defined message types and specified query response framework provides for real-time response and easy adaptation for cross-vendor communication. Examples are provided where an intrusion detection system (IDS) can be used to detect network threats based on distributed threat analytics, passing detected threats to other security products (e.g., products with different capabilities from different vendors) to trigger automatic, dynamically configured communication and reaction.
