Abstract: Methods, systems, and media are shown for creating and deploying honey tokens for intrusion detection in a remote computing resource system. Resource modules provisioned for a tenant are identified for intrusion detection. For each identified resource modules, a provisioned resource having a corresponding access credential is allocated and the access credential is deployed in the identified resource module. A data entry is created in a token mapping store that identifies the access credential and the resource module. Access logs are scanned to detect access attempts. For each access attempt, the token mapping store is searched for a data entry with an access credential that matches the access credential of the access attempt. If found, an alert is generated that includes the identified resource module of the matching data entry.

Abstract: In one embodiment, an RFID device is disclosed that contains a first conductive structure and a second conductive structure formed from multiple conductive materials configured to move between a first operating condition and a second operating condition when exposed to an event or other stimuli. The second conductive structure is initially operatively coupled to the first conductive structure in the first operating condition. However, after exposure to the event, the first conductive structure is altered to change the behavior of the RFID device. The RFID device is attachable to a substrate, such as a garment or a fabric, and the event may be a single or multiple occurrence event, such as washing, stretching, heating, or exposure of the RFID device to electrical signals.

Abstract: Methods, systems, and apparatus, including computer programs encoded on computer storage media, for identifying wildfire in satellite imagery. In some implementations, a server obtains a satellite image of a geographic region and a date corresponding to when the satellite image was generated. The server determines a number of pixels in the satellite image that are indicated as on fire. The server obtains satellite imagery of the geographic region from before the date. The server generates a statistical distribution from the satellite imagery. The server determines a likelihood that the satellite image illustrates fire based on a comparison of the determined number of pixels in the satellite image that are indicated as on fire to the generated statistical distribution. The server can compare the determined likelihood to a threshold. In response to comparing the determined likelihood to the threshold, the server provides an indication that the satellite image illustrates fire.
