  • Patent number: 11930108
    Abstract: Various embodiments include systems and methods to implement a password requirement conformity check. During a password reset process, a proposed password is received. A homomorphic encryption operation may be performed on the proposed password to generate a first character string. The first character string may be compared to a previous character string associated with a previous password to determine a password similarity metric. The password similarity metric may or may not satisfy at least a distance threshold. Responsive to determining that the password similarity metric does not satisfy the distance threshold, there may be a rejection of the proposed password and a prompt to receive an alternative proposed password during the password reset process.

  • Patent number: 11929608
    Abstract: Systems and methods are described herein to accommodate different settings associated with an inverter-based electric power generator and an inverter-based electric power generator for electric power generation within an electric power delivery system. The electric power delivery system may provide electric power generated by a bulk electric system to the loads via distributed substations using a first operating frequency. Moreover, the distributed substations may include inverter-based electric power generators to supply the electric power demand of downstream loads in an islanded configuration. That said, the inverter-based electric power generators may supply the electric power using a second frequency that is higher than the first frequency. Protective systems, positioned downstream from the distributed substations, may use different settings associated with the bulk electric system or the inverter-based electric power generators based on detecting the frequency of the supplied electric power.

  • Patent number: 11929989
    Abstract: Systems and methods are provided for consolidation of IHS (Information Handling System) VPN (Virtual Private Network) resources utilized by workspaces operating on the IHS, where the workspaces operate in isolation from the operating system of the IHS. A remote workspace orchestration service manages deployment of workspaces on the IHS. The workspaces are instantiated and operate according to a workspace definition provided by the workspace orchestration service. An embedded controller of the IHS registers a VPN consolidation function of the IHS with the workspace orchestration service, which notifies the workspaces of the VPN consolidation function. A VPN workspace is instantiated that operates according to a workspace definition provided by the workspace orchestration service. The respective workspace definitions of the workspaces are updated to route VPN communications to the VPN workspace.
