Abstract: Provided are mechanisms and processes for computational risk analysis and intermediation. Security practices information characterizing security measures in place at a first computing system may be received from the first computing system via a network. Computing services interaction information characterizing data transmitted from a second computing system to the first computing system may be received from the second computing system via the network. A processor may determine a risk profile for the first computing system based on the security practices information. Based on the risk profile and the computing services interaction information, the processor may then determine an estimate of the information security risk associated with transmitting the data from the second computing system to the first computing system. A risk assessment message including the estimate of the information security risk may be transmitted to the second computing system.

Abstract: A viewable time piece has a face from which relative time is read. The time piece has a changeable time indicator. Symbol or image changes on the time indicator are effected by placement or replacement of at least some non-alphanumeric symbols for view that are indicative of various events over the course of a day. The time piece allows exchange and replacement of the non-alphanumeric symbols so that different events may be indicated for similar respective times over the course of a day. There may also be a system that provides time variant changes in the symbols that are displayed over the course of the day.
