  • Patent number: 11956268
    Abstract: Disclosed are systems, methods, and non-transitory computer-readable media for AI based privacy amplification. A data security system allows for data transmitted between devices to be secured using varying levels of data security that are adjusted dynamically based on the determined sensitivity level of the data. The data security system uses AI (e.g., machine learning models) to predict the sensitivity level of data being transmitted between the devices in real-time and applies an appropriate level of data security based on the predicted sensitivity level. Dynamically adjusting the level of data security that is used based on the sensitivity level of the data provides for heightened levels of data security to protect highly sensitive data, and lower levels of data security to conserve computing resources when protecting less sensitive data.

  • Patent number: 11947650
    Abstract: Embodiments of the invention are directed to a method. The method may include transmitting, by a first device, an encrypted first biometric template generated from a first biometric sample of a user of the first device to a second device, wherein the second device inputs the encrypted first biometric template and a second biometric template generated from a second biometric sample of the user into a function to generate an encoded output. The first device may receive the encoded output from the second device, and may decode the encoded output to recover the encrypted first biometric template and the second biometric template of the user. Upon determining a match result between first and second biometric templates, the first device may transmit unique data to the second device.

  • Patent number: 11934279
    Abstract: A prefetch mechanism stores data in the memory allocated in a remote passive (remote) node in a High Availability active-passive node pair. A read-ahead cache that can host different parts of a file is created on both the active and the passive nodes. The system improves the performance of sequential restores by using memory available on a passive node to supplement the local (active node) memory to hold the prefetched data for the common case of large sequential restores. This extra memory overcomes issues when a current prefetch fails to keep up with the target restore performance. Filesystem redirection is thus accomplished by servicing an I/O request by sending it another node that itself caches the data.
