Abstract: Described herein are systems and methods for generating a computing network from natural language descriptions of the computing network are provided. In one or more examples, the systems and methods described below can be used harvest publically available (or even privately available) natural language descriptions of a computing network, and convert those descriptions into an operational replica of the described computing network. By harvesting both publically available data, as well as other resources, the systems and methods described herein can allow for an analyst tasked with analyzing a given computing network to generate a fully operational replica of the computing network without having to have direct access to the network. In one or more examples, the analyst can recreate a fully-functional replica of the network to be analyzed based on partial descriptions of the computing network, thereby greatly improving the level of analysis capable of being performed.

The unitary batter pack may be integrated into the vehicle with or without additional support structures.

Abstract: A computing device comprising a secure browser extension for a web browser monitors for satisfaction of one or more operating conditions to identify whether one or more unauthorized applications are intercepting web browser communications. Based on satisfaction of at least one operating condition, the secure browser extension of the computing device sends an HTTPS request to a known service via the web browser. The secure browser extension receives an HTTPS response to the HTTPS request via the web browser. The secure browser extension determines whether the certificate included in the HTTPS response is trusted by the secure browser extension. Based on determining the certificate is not trusted, the secure browser extension terminates the web browser session and generates a notification for display at the computing device that indicates web browser communications are compromised.

Abstract: An operation management system is disclosed. The operation management system may receive a video stream from a wearable device of a user that is performing an operation in a physical environment.
