  • Publication number: 20250184369
    Abstract: A cloud security control platform and method enforces security controls across multiple cloud environments, services and disparate teams while providing a frictionless “Permissions on Demand” mechanism for approvals and exceptions. In contrast to the prior art, security is evaluated on a permission by permission basis, with the default being that all permissions are denied and then only given to a particular identity on an as-needed basis. This approach reduces the security risks associated with the vast capabilities available in Public Cloud environments and permits an organization that uses the platform to grant access, approve exceptions and delegate approvals with the appropriate compliance.

  • Patent number: 12314378
    Abstract: A first password is received by a password encoder which uses the first password to generate a first key. This first key is used to modify weights and biases of an encoder to result in a modified encoder. Further, weights and biases of a decoder operating in tandem with the encoder based can be modified based on a second key to result in a modified decoder. First data is received which encapsulates second data in a hidden compartment. The first data is encoded by the modified encoder to result to generate an embedding. The modified decoder decodes the embedding to result in a representation of the second data which, in turn, can be provided to a consuming application or process. The first data can be input into the encoder and the decoder prior to those components being modified to result in a representation of the first data.

  • Patent number: 12271805
    Abstract: An encoder receives first data encapsulating second data in a hidden compartment along with a decoder identifier corresponding to either of a first decoder or a second decoder. The encoder then generates an embedding corresponding to the first data. The first decoder decodes the embedding to result in a representation of the first data when the decoder identifier corresponds to the first decoder. The second decoder decodes the embedding to result in a representation of the second data when the decoder identifier corresponds to the second decoder. The decoded embedding can be provided to a consuming application or process. Related apparatus, systems, techniques and articles are also described.

  • Patent number: 12254120
    Abstract: Data is received that characterizes artefacts associated with each of a plurality of layers of a first machine learning model. Fingerprints are then generated for each of the artefacts in the layers of the first machine learning model. These generated fingerprints collectively form a model indicator for the first machine learning model. It is then determined whether the first machine learning model is derived from another machine learning model by performing a similarity analysis between the model indicator for the first machine learning model and model indicators generated for each of a plurality of reference machine learning models each comprising a respective set of fingerprints. Data characterizing the determination can be provided to a consuming application or process. Related apparatus, systems, techniques and articles are also described.

  • Patent number: 12243036
    Abstract: A media terminal includes two integrated currency devices, each device providing at least one feature/operation that is similar to or is the same as the other device. Two independent sessions to each device are made and presented to a transaction application of the terminal as a single aggregated session. When the transaction application issues a command through the single aggregated session, a decision is made that is transparent to the application as to which device should process the command on behalf of the application and the command is issued to the selected device over the corresponding independent session. Results or notifications provided by the selected device are aggregated and provided to the application over the single aggregated session. In an embodiment, the two integrated currency devices are different types of devices from one another.

  • Publication number: 20250061657
    Abstract: A method and system for generating two or three dimensional computer graphics images using multisample antialiasing (MSAA) is provided, which enables memory bandwidth to be conserved. For each of one or more pixels it is determined whether all of a plurality of sample areas of that pixel are located within a particular primitive. For those pixels where it is determined that all the sample areas of that pixel are located within that primitive, a value is stored in a multisample memory for a smaller number of the sample areas of that pixel than the total number of the sample areas of that pixel and data is stored indicating that all the sample areas of that pixel are located within that primitive.

  • Publication number: 20240403704
    Abstract: Data is received that characterizes artefacts associated with each of a plurality of layers of a first machine learning model. Fingerprints are generated corresponding to each of the artefacts in each layer. The generated fingerprints can collectively form a model indicator for the first machine learning model. A second machine learning model then determines, based on the generated fingerprints, whether the first machine learning model is derived from another machine learning model. Data provided this characterization can be provided to a consuming application or process. This second machine learning model can be trained model with historical fingerprints having a known provenance classification. Related apparatus, systems, techniques and articles are also described.
