  • Patent number: 11943415
    Abstract: When repurposing a document, a processor reads a document having multiple pages and extracts three samples of the multiple pages of the document. For each of the three samples, the processor compares sequential pages within a respective sample to identify a pattern of markers, such as page numbers. A marker is found by splitting a page into smaller regions and wherein each smaller region is searched for the marker and if the marker is not found continuing to split a smaller region into further smaller regions. The processor removes the markers based on identified patterns for each respective sample of the document.

  • Publication number: 20240097913
    Abstract: In an example, a computing device is described. The computing device comprises a communication interface and a processor. The processor is to determine whether a signature, produced by a signer, is derived from a free state under a stateful signature scheme. The free state is a state that has not been used as an input to generate a signing key. The signature is encrypted by the signer. The processor is further to, in response to determining that the signature is derived from a free state, decrypt the encrypted signature. The processor is further to transmit the decrypted signature to a recipient via the communication interface.

  • Publication number: 20240098652
    Abstract: In an example, a computing device may include a first radio device including a first antenna, a second radio device including a second antenna, and a basic input/output system (BIOS). The BIOS may establish a communication with the first and second radio devices. Further, the BIOS may receive first transmission status information associated with the first antenna from the first radio device and second transmission status information associated with the second antenna from the second radio device. Furthermore, the BIOS may detect a condition indicative of a combined transmit power of the first and second antennas exceeding a radio frequency exposure threshold based on the first and second transmission status information. The BIOS may instruct the first radio device, the second radio device, or both to perform a mitigation action to maintain the combined transmit power at or below the radio frequency exposure threshold.
