Abstract: Implementations are described herein for analyzing existing graphical user interfaces (“GUIs”) to facilitate automatic interaction with those GUIs, e.g., by automated assistants or via other user interfaces, with minimal effort from the hosts of those GUIs. For example, in various implementations, a user intent to interact with a particular GUI may be determined based at least in part on a free-form natural language input. Based on the user intent, a target visual cue to be located in the GUI may be identified, and object recognition processing may be performed on a screenshot of the GUI to determine a location of a detected instance of the target visual cue in the screenshot. Based on the location of the detected instance of the target visual cue, an interactive element of the GUI may be identified and automatically populate with data determined from the user intent.

Abstract: In an aspect, a field-deployable hardware apparatus includes a stackable housing, a graphical processing unit disposed within the stackable housing, the graphical processing unit comprising a first plurality of processor cores, a general-purpose processor disposed within the stackable housing, the general-purpose processor comprising a second plurality of processor cores, at least a binary unit system disposed within the stackable housing and connecting the graphical processing unit to the general-purpose processor, and a memory communicatively connected to at least a core of the first plurality of cores and the second plurality of cores, the memory containing instructions configuring the at least a core to execute a hypervisor, wherein the hypervisor generates a virtual environment on the at least a core.
Abstract: A method for securing messages includes obtaining, at a message server, a message for a user of a message service hosted by the message server. The message includes a header and the header includes a digital signature signed by an author of the message and a list of one or more recipients of the message. The method includes determining whether the digital signature by the author is valid and determining, using the list of one or more recipients, whether the user is a declared recipient of the message. When the digital signature by the author is valid and the user is the declared recipient of the message, the method includes delivering the message to a user device of the user. When the digital signature by the author is valid and the user is not the declared recipient of the message, the method includes alerting the user.
Abstract: A method for detecting an exploit in a processing instruction. The method may comprise steps of receiving processor instructions, analyzing the processor instructions to detect data flow instructions, trimming out the data flow instructions, comparing the data flow instructions to a pre-defined pattern for exploit behavior, and generating an exploit notification in response to detecting the pre-defined pattern for exploit behavior in the data flow instructions.
Abstract: A method for organizing data by events, comprising separating events of a first type from a series of data messages from a data source and organizing the events of the first type into a first series of event data and separating events of second type from the series of messages and organizing the events of the second type into a second series of event data. A method for determining the state of a data source and a method for managing event data from a data source are additionally provided.
