Abstract: A packet-filtering system configured to filter packets in accordance with packet-filtering rules may receive data indicating network-threat indicators and may configure the packet-filtering rules to cause the packet-filtering system to identify packets comprising unencrypted data, and packets comprising encrypted data. A portion of the unencrypted data may correspond to one or more of the network-threat indicators, and the packet-filtering rules may be configured to cause the packet-filtering system to determine, based on the portion of the unencrypted data, that the packets comprising encrypted data correspond to the one or more network-threat indicators.

Abstract: Encryption engines shuffle data segments during encryption and/or decryption, thereby obtaining a random permutation of the data segments to be used during encryption and/or decryption. By shuffling the data during encryption/decryption and using the resulting random permutation for encryption/decryption, the encryption engines obfuscate the power consumption information that attackers might access as part of an SCA. In some examples, the encryption engines perform intra-round shuffling of the input data within a reduced-sized encryption datapath configured to iteratively compute a portion of an encrypted block of data.

Abstract: A process for manufacturing pipes using thermoplastic pipe and “tape” (continuous fiber, fully wetted in a similar thermoplastic as the pipe) that embeds its fibers into pipe surface. The thermoplastic pipe is mechanically compressed prior fiber tape being applied. Outer diameter reduction of the pipe is at least partly maintained by the fiber tape being tightly wrapped around the pipe immediately after compression causes the pipe to contract. Then, an external heat source is applied to the pipe causing the thermoplastic to melt and the pipe to undergo thermal expansion. Fibers stretch less and are embedded into the molten layer of the pipe, creating a permanent bond between the fibers and the pipe. Individual pipes may be joined using couplers or butt welds.

Abstract: Disclosed are various examples of providing provide efficient waiting for detection of memory value updates for Advanced RISC Machines (ARM) architectures. An ARM processor component instructs a memory agent to perform a processing action, and executes a waiting function. The waiting function ensures that the processing action is completed by the memory agent. The waiting function performs an exclusive load at a memory location, and a wait for event (WFE) instruction that causes the ARM processor component to wait in a low-power mode for an event register to be set. Once the event register is set, the waiting function completes and a second processing action is executed by the ARM processor component.
