  • Patent number: 11962613
    Abstract: An internal network can include a plurality of linked internal nodes, each internal node being configured to communicate with other internal nodes or with one or more external servers over an external network. The internal network can analyze the configuration of the internal nodes and the network traffic between internal nodes of the internal network and external servers. Based on the analysis, a network vulnerability score measuring the vulnerability of the internal network to attack can be determined. If the vulnerability score is below a threshold, the internal network can be isolated from the external network, for example by preventing internal nodes from communicating with or over the external network.

  • Patent number: 11960741
    Abstract: The present disclosure generally relates to writing data to streams. A host device can instruct a data storage device to operate in implied streams mode such that the host device does not need to tell the data storage device the specific stream in which to write data. The data storage device would maintain a list of open append points of specific streams. Upon receiving a write command, the data storage device determines whether the write command is for an already open stream, and if so, write to the specific stream. If not, then the data storage device opens a new stream or write the data to an overflow stream.

  • Patent number: 11957605
    Abstract: A mobility augmentation system monitors data representative of a user's motor intent and augments the user's mobility based on the monitored motor intent data. A machine-learned model is trained to identify an intended movement based on the monitored motor intent data. The machine-learned model may be trained based on generalized or specific motor intent data (e.g., user-specific motor intent data). A machine-learned model initially trained on generalized motor intent data may be re-trained on user-specific motor intent data such that the machine-learned model is optimized to the movements of the user. The system uses the machine-learned model to identify a difference between the user's monitored movement and target movement signals. Based on the identified difference, the system determines actuation signals to augment the user's movement. The actuation signals determined can be an adjustment to a currently applied actuation such that the system optimizes the actuation strategy during application.
