Publication number: 20190121963Abstract: Methods and systems are disclosed for an internet isolation system implemented using a browser application. The host computer system may be configured to receive a request to communicate with a first network destination. The host computer system may determine whether the first network destination is trusted or untrusted. The host computer system may instantiate a browser application. The browser application may be configured to, on a condition that the first network destination is determined to be trusted, enable communication with the first network destination via a first browser process executed in a workspace of the host computer system. The browser application may be configured to, on a condition that the first network destination is determined to be untrusted, implement an isolated computing environment using an internal isolation firewall and enable communication with the first destination via a second browser process executed in the isolated computing environment.Type: ApplicationFiled: October 18, 2018Publication date: April 25, 2019Applicant: L3 Technologies, Inc.Inventors: Glenn Coleman, Peter Martz, Kenneth Moritz

Publication number: 20190102923Abstract: Various display systems may benefit from the combination of synthetic imagery from a plurality of sources. For example, display systems for vehicular operations may benefit from combining synthetic imagery with real imagery. A method can include obtaining, by a processor, an interior video image based on a position of a user. The method can also include obtaining, by the processor, an exterior video image based on the position of the user. The method can further include combining the interior video image and the exterior video image to form a combined single view for the user. The method can additionally include providing the combined single view to a display of the user.Type: ApplicationFiled: October 4, 2017Publication date: April 4, 2019Applicant: L3 Technologies, Inc.Inventor: Paul Albert Voisin

Publication number: 20190097974Abstract: A host computer system may be configured to connect to a network. The host computer system may be configured to implement a workspace and an isolated computing environment. The host computer system may be configured to isolate the isolated computing environment from the workspace using an internal isolation firewall. The internal isolation firewall may be configured to prevent data from being communicated between the isolated computing environment and the workspace, for example, without an explicit user input. When malware is received by the isolated computing environment, the internal isolation firewall may be configured to prevent the malware from accessing data on the workspace of the host computer system. The host computer system may be configured to implement one or more mechanisms that prevent malware received by the host computer system from exfiltrating, to a network destination, data from the host computer system and data from other devices on the network.Type: ApplicationFiled: September 27, 2018Publication date: March 28, 2019Applicant: L3 Technologies, Inc.Inventors: Peter Martz, Kenneth Moritz, Glenn Coleman

Patent number: 10181972Abstract: Embodiments are directed to systems and methods for communicating between nodes in a mobile ad hoc network. In one scenario, a node in a mobile ad hoc network communicates with another node in the network using both code division multiple access (CDMA) and frequency division duplexing. The communication is coded prior to transmission to the other node, and includes applying direct sequence spread spectrum (DSSS) modulation to a transmission signal at a specified bit rate over a specified spectrum. The DSSS coding is applied in accordance with a processing gain which spreads the spectrum relative to the bit rate of the transmission. The coded communication is then transmitted over a specified frequency band allocated to the node over which the node transmits data and over which the other node receives the data.Type: GrantFiled: May 25, 2017Date of Patent: January 15, 2019Assignee: L3 Technologies, Inc.Inventors: Thomas R.
