Abstract: Techniques for predicting analyte levels based on intermittent sensor data are disclosed. First sensor data is acquired from an analyte sensor. The first sensor data reflects analyte levels of a user who is wearing the analyte sensor. The first sensor data is collected over a first time period. Later, a determination is made as to whether data is still being acquired from the analyte sensor. As a result of determining that data is no longer being acquired from the analyte sensor, the first sensor data is classified as intermittent analyte data. The intermittent analyte data is then used to generate predicted analyte level data for the user during a second time period that is subsequent to the first time period. The predicted analyte level data is reflective of the intermittent analyte data.

Abstract: A software Redundant Array of Independent Disk (RAID)/management trusted storage-device-based communication system includes a chassis housing a software Redundant Array of Independent Disk (RAID) subsystem, a storage device that is coupled to the software RAID subsystem and that includes a storage device memory subsystem, and a management subsystem that is coupled to the storage device. The management subsystem authenticates the storage device to establish management subsystem/storage device trust between the management subsystem and the storage device and, in response, uses the storage device to establish management subsystem/software RAID subsystem trust between the management subsystem and the software RAID subsystem. In response to establishing the management subsystem/storage device trust and the management subsystem/software RAID subsystem trust, the management subsystem transmits communications with the software RAID subsystem via the storage device memory subsystem in the storage device.

Abstract: Disclosed systems and methods address escalated vulnerability attributable to system down time. In at least one embodiment, a customer-selectable threshold of detection establishes the number of days a system is allowed to be “down” before forcing a secured update path as described herein. The threshold may represent a compromise and balance between inconvenience and security based on each customer's preference. Tracking of system down time or offline time may be managed via EC/SBIOS and a real time clock (RTC) timer. The system down time may then be compared to the customer setting, e.g., whenever the system is booted.

Abstract: Flows corresponding to an overlapping IP address are differentiated via scalable techniques for appropriate enforcement security policies. Agents deployed to each site of a network (e.g., each VPC or branch router) encapsulate outbound packets with a header that includes an identifier that uniquely identifies the site as the origin of the packets, such as a VPC identifier or branch identifier. A session manager executing on a security appliance receives the encapsulated packets and determines the origin identifier and other packet attributes, including source/destination IP addresses, source/destination ports, and protocol. The session manager creates an N-tuple (e.g., a 6-tuple) comprising the origin identifier and packet attributes and creates a session for the flow with the N-tuple as the session key. The security appliance then enforces a security policy for the packets and subsequent packets that are part of the flow and match to the created session.

Abstract: A resilient software Redundant Array of Independent Disk (RAID)/management communication system includes a chassis housing a software RAID subsystem coupled to a plurality of storage devices that are also coupled to a management subsystem. The software RAID subsystem designates a first storage device in the plurality of storage devices as a primary storage device and a second storage device in the plurality of storage devices as a secondary storage device, and uses the respective storage device memory subsystem in the first storage device to transmit first management communications with the management subsystem. If the software RAID subsystem determines that the first storage device is unavailable, it uses the respective storage device memory subsystem in the second storage device to transmit second management communications with the management subsystem.

Abstract: A software RAID/management communication system includes a chassis housing a software Redundant Array of Independent Disk (RAID) subsystem and a management subsystem that are each coupled to a storage device having a storage device memory subsystem. The software RAID subsystem provides a software RAID information request in the storage device memory subsystem that requests the management subsystem provide software RAID information associated with the operation of a software RAID provided by the software RAID subsystem, the software RAID subsystem then periodically accesses the storage device memory subsystem and, when the software RAID subsystem determines that the management subsystem has provided a software RAID information response in the storage device memory subsystem, the software RAID subsystem retrieves the software RAID information that was provided in the storage device memory subsystem by the management subsystem.
