  • Patent number: 12639701
    Abstract: The present invention concerns the verification and authentication of independent digital wallets and, particularly, the linking of regulated and unregulated digital wallets on a public blockchain. An unregulated trading system has a public certificate module arranged selectively to write NFTs into specific unregulated accounts. A public ledger database of the blockchain system stores unregulated accounts which each contain: (i) a document type identifier having a related minted unique non-transferable NFT linked to an externally generated certificate hash and where each non-transferable NFT is obtained via writing of a smart contract and each non-transferable NFT is a permanent record for a description of the document type; and (ii) a link to a private wallet of a regulated account of a regulated trading platform. The link relates directly to the minted non-transferable NFT issued from the certificate module.

  • Patent number: 12641142
    Abstract: Systems and methods for quick start-up of playback in accordance with embodiments of the invention are disclosed. Media content may be encoded in a plurality of alternative streams and a quick start-up stream. The quick start-up stream may include media content that is encoded at a lower quality that the alternative streams and may be encrypted with a different, less secure encryption process than that of the alternative streams. During a start-up of playback, the playback device streams the media content from a quick start-up stream until a metric, such as a decryption key for the alternative streams is met. The device then streams the media content from the alternative streams in response to the metric being met.

  • Patent number: 12640907
    Abstract: A method for implementing a fast UBDM transform includes receiving a first, input vector via a processor, and partitioning the first vector to produce a magnitude vector and a sign vector. A second vector, including a modified magnitude vector and a modified sign vector, is generated by: applying a permutation to the magnitude vector to produce the modified magnitude vector, converting the sign vector, based on an algorithm, into an intermediate sign vector, and applying nonlinear layers to the intermediate sign vector. Each nonlinear layer includes a permutation, an S-box transformation, a diffusive linear operation and/or an Xor operation. Multiple linear layers are applied to the second vector to produce a third vector, the third vector being a transformed version of the first vector. A first signal representing the third vector is sent to at least one transmitter for transmission of a second signal representing the transformed data vector.

  • Patent number: 12619754
    Abstract: Examples described herein are generally directed towards generating, allocating, and assigning consistent file server user identifiers (IDs) (also described herein as a global identifier (GID)) domains subscribed to by file server(s) within a distributed file server environment. In operation, a virtualized file server of a distributed file server system may scan for and identify a trusted domain subscribed to by the virtualized file server. The virtualized file server may allocate to the trusted domain a range of file server user IDs. The virtualized file server may store a mapping between local user security identifiers (SIDs) in the trusted domain and a respective file server user IDs within the allocated range. The virtualized file server may provide the mapping to a replication target, such as during a replication, migration, and/or a disaster recovery event.

  • Patent number: 12603865
    Abstract: Systems and methods are provided for use in providing remote access across multiple regions. One example method includes receiving a remote access request from a user terminal associated with a remote user, where the request is specific to a first data center of a network, and opening, by a front-end firewall, a first IP security (IPSec) tunnel with the user terminal. The method also includes forwarding, by the front-end firewall, the request to a distribution firewall and routing, by the distribution firewall, the request to a back-end firewall, which is specific to the first data center. The method then further includes opening, by the back-end firewall, a second IPSec tunnel with the network and forwarding the request, through the second IPSec tunnel, to the network to thereby support communication between the user terminal and the network, via the first and second IPSec tunnels.
