Abstract: Aspects described herein may relate to techniques for detecting login activity to a financial account during a knowledge-based authentication process. The login activity may be related to access to an online interface for the financial account. The detection of login activity during the authentication process my indicate that the integrity of the authentication process is compromised as login access may provide an individual with transaction data that may be used to answer transaction-based authentication questions. As a result of detecting login activity, an alternative authentication process may be initiated or an authentication request related to the financial account may be denied.

Abstract: Methods and systems are configured to determine a semantic meaning for data and generate data processing rules based on the semantic meaning of the data. The semantic meaning includes syntactical or contextual meaning for the data that is determined, for example, by profiling, by the data processing system, values stored in a field included in data records of one or more datasets; applying, by the data processing system, one or more classifiers to the profiled values; identifying, based on applying the one or more classifiers, one or more attributes indicative of a logical or syntactical characteristic for the values of the field, with each of the one or more attributes having a respective confidence level that is based on an output of each of the one or more classifiers. The attributes are associated with the fields and are used for generating data processing rules and processing the data.

Abstract: A secure access control system configured to control access to sensitive data stored on disparate systems is disclosed. A first entity is designated to control access to second entity data. An authentication token, generated using a key derivation function, is used to authenticate the first entity. The authenticated first entity is granted access to second entity data. An access control interface is generated configured to selectively grant or withdraw access to second entity data. The access control interface identifies entities associated with respective access controls. The access control interface is instantiated on a first entity device. Activation indications of access controls is received over a network. Access to second entity data is accordingly granted or withdrawn. Access control transition event rules and/or access control transition time rules are retrieved.

According to the present disclosure, one or both of: a) the filesystem driver software is configured to grant or deny the file access request in dependence on state information from the network filter driver software, and/or b) the network filter driver software is configured to grant or deny the connection establishment request in dependence on state information from the filesystem driver software.

Abstract: A method and apparatus for treatment of hypertension and heart failure by increasing secretion of endogenous atrial hormones by pacing of the heart. Pacing is done during the ventricular refractory period resulting in premature atrial contraction that does not result in ventricular contraction. Pacing results in the atrial wall stress, peripheral vasodilation, ANP secretion. Concomitant reduction of the heart rate is monitored and controlled as needed with backup pacing.

Abstract: Aspects of the disclosure are directed to an interface for receiving input using multiple modalities in an artificial reality environment. The interface can be a virtual keyboard displayed in an artificial reality environment that includes characters arranged as elements. Implementations include an artificial reality device/system for displaying the artificial reality environment and receiving user input in a first modality, and a controller device for receiving user input in an additional input modality. For example, the artificial reality system can be configured to receive user gaze input as a first input modality and the controller device can be configured to receive input in a second modality, such as touch input received at a trackpad. An interface manager can process input in the multiple modalities to control an indicator on the virtual interface. The interface manager can also resolve character selections from the virtual interface according to the input.
