  • Patent number: 11359444
    Abstract: A horizontal directional drilling system. The system has a pilot drill and an exit side drill, with a drill string extending between them. A backreamer is positioned between the drills to enlarge a borehole. The pilot drill pulls and rotates the backreamer. The exit side drill adds segments to the product pipe and pushes the product pipe into the enlarged borehole. The exit side drill is equipped with a rotational disconnect. The disconnect is engaged to allow torque transfer between a motor and a spindle when adding segments to the product pipe. The disconnect is disengaged to prevent torque transfer between the motor and the spindle when pushing the product pipe into the enlarged borehole.

  • Patent number: 11320367
    Abstract: A testing system includes a production-type laser having optical modes of a production laser that interfaces with an optical path of a heat-assisted magnetic recording (HAMR) slider. A far-field light illumination path delivers excitation light from the production-type laser to the optical path of the HAMR slider, the excitation light being emitted from an air bearing surface (ABS) of the HAMR slider. Optics receive the emitted light from the ABS and distribute the emitted light to one or more sensors. The system determines, based on signals received from the one or more sensors, a depolarization of the emitted light and a coupling efficiency of the HAMR slider. The system may also measure light reflecting out of the optical path and Fourier transform these measurements to determine locations of reflections within the optical path.

  • Publication number: 20220125837
    Abstract: The technology relates in part to methods for controlling elimination of therapeutic cells, for example, cells that express a chimeric antigen receptor. The technology further relates to a two-step method of controlling destruction of therapeutic cells in a patient following an adverse event. The two-step system may include a rapamycin or rapamycin analog-based level of control and a second, rimiducid, level of control. The technology also relates in part to methods for cell therapy using cells that express the inducible caspase polypeptide and the rapamycin-sensitive polypeptide, where the proportion of therapeutic cells eliminated by apoptosis is related to the choice and amount of the administered ligand.

  • Patent number: 11271949
    Abstract: The disclosure herein pertains to a security vulnerability scanner. The security vulnerability scanner parses a URL into a network portion and a fragment portion. The security vulnerability scanner then runs the URL on a network-side browser to generate processed results. Advantageously, the security vulnerability scanner is able to mimic a client side browser by running various fragment portions in order to analyze security risks.

  • Patent number: 11256560
    Abstract: A behavior detection system has access to a collection of behavior definitions that each describe a functional behavior of a system. Each behavior definition includes multiple basic operations, each of which includes an identifier and one or more parameters. The behavior definition also includes, explicitly or inherently, a basic operation combination definition that describes a sequence or other manner in which the basic operations are combined. The behavior detection system analyzes events in an event log for the system and determines whether the events in the event log satisfy any of the behavior definitions. An appropriate responsive action is taken in response to detecting that the events in the event log satisfy a behavior definition. The collection of behavior definitions is scalable, allowing behavior definitions to be added or deleted, and allowing basic operations in a behavior definition to be changed (e.g., adding, removing, and/or modifying basic operation parameters).

  • Patent number: 11245717
    Abstract: Techniques for automated detection and mitigation of subdomain takeovers are described. A method for automated detection and mitigation of subdomain takeovers comprises receiving, by a subdomain manager, a request to monitor one or more resources associated with one or more mapping records, periodically scanning each resource from the one or more resources, receiving a response from at least one resource indicating that the at least one resource does not exist or is invalid, and sending a notification indicating that the at least one resource does not exist or is invalid using a notification service.
