  • Patent number: 12293000
    Abstract: A process of redacting records based on a contextual correlation with a previously redacted record. In operation, an electronic computing device obtains redaction metadata associated with a previously redacted record and uses the redaction metadata to identify a segment within an unredacted record that was redacted to generate the previously redacted record. The device then processes the segment to detect characteristics of a person or the object captured in the unredacted record and further redacted in the redacted record. The device also determines a context in which the redacted person or object was captured within the segment of the unredacted record. The device then redacts a person or object captured in other unredacted records when such person or object is contextually related to the redacted person or object captured in the unredacted record corresponding to the previously redacted record.

  • Patent number: 12278864
    Abstract: A source node from the cluster of nodes, responsive to receiving the file sharing command from other applications on the same node (e.g., on a virtual machine in the cluster of nodes), copies the shared file to a source workspace directory and compress, and then copy the compressed file to the file sync database. The command comprises a configuration template with file retrieval information. A target node from the cluster of nodes, listens for commands from other nodes in the cluster of nodes. Responsive to receiving the file sharing command, the compressed file is copied from the file sync database to a target workspace directory and decompress, and then copy the shared file to node.

  • Patent number: 12273415
    Abstract: Techniques are described that enable users to configure the mirroring of network traffic sent to or received by computing resources associated with a virtual network of computing resources at a service provider network. The mirrored network traffic can be used for many different purposes including, for example, network traffic content inspection, forensic and threat analysis, network troubleshooting, data loss prevention, and the like. Users can configure such network traffic mirroring without the need to manually install and manage network capture agents or other such processes on each computing resource for which network traffic mirroring is desired. Users can cause mirrored network traffic to be stored at a storage service in the form of packet capture (or “pcap”) files, which can be used by any number of available out-of-band security and monitoring appliances including other user-specific monitoring tools and/or other services of the service provider network.

  • Patent number: 12231893
    Abstract: A method of determining an integrity of an electronic communication device that connects to a 5G core network. The method comprises measuring by an attestation client application executing on the electronic communication device attributes of a universal communication stack (UCS) that executes on the electronic communication device and that promotes communication with the 5G core network; receiving a baseline of UCS attributes comprising norms of UCS attributes and thresholds; comparing measurements of the attributes of the UCS to the baseline by the attestation client application; when the comparisons are within the thresholds, granting communication access by the attestation client application to the 5G core network to a user application that executes on the electronic communication device; and when one of the comparisons exceeds a threshold, denying communication access by the attestation client application to the 5G core network to the user application that executes on the electronic communication device.

  • Patent number: 12126506
    Abstract: Techniques are described for storing and processing network data for responding to queries for such network data. Operational network data is separated from configuration network data so that they can be processed and stored separately. A sliding window cache is used to continually, temporarily store network data objects having time stamps falling within the time range of the sliding window cache. Network data objects stored within the sliding window cache are then moved to computer memory for storage and later retrieval. In response to a query for network data, network data objects can be retrieved from the sliding window cache and also from the computer memory based on time stamps of the network data objects and on the time range of the query.

  • Patent number: 12088660
    Abstract: A wireless communication system generates Artificial Intelligence (AI) responses to network data. Computer circuitry hosts network functions, distributed ledgers, ledger clients, and AI engines. The network functions serve User Equipment (UEs) over Radio Access Networks (RANs), and in response, transfer the network data to the distributed ledgers. The distributed ledgers receive and store the network data. The ledger clients select some of the network data from the distributed ledgers and transfer the selected network data to the AI engines. The AI engines receive the selected network data, and in response, generate the AI responses. The ledger clients and the AI engines may comprise wireless network slices.

  • Patent number: 12081448
    Abstract: Various implementations disclosed herein include devices, systems, and methods for reducing a decode delay at a client device. In some implementations, a device includes one or more processors and a non-transitory memory. In some implementations, a method includes determining that a client device is being switched from a real-time content presentation mode in which the client device presents real-time content to a buffered content presentation mode in which the client device presents buffered content. In some implementations, the method includes transmitting, to the client device, video frames corresponding to the buffered content at a first transmission rate. In some implementations, the method includes changing the first transmission rate to a second transmission rate based on an indication that a number of bits stored in a buffer of the client device satisfies a decode threshold.
