Abstract: A non-transitory processor-readable medium storing code representing instructions to cause a processor to perform a process includes code to cause the processor to receive a set of indications of allowed behavior associated with an application. The processor is also caused to initiate an instance of the application within a sandbox environment. The processor is further caused to receive, from a monitor module associated with the sandbox environment, a set of indications of actual behavior of the instance of the application in response to initiating the instance of the application within the sandbox environment. The processor is also caused to send an indication associated with an anomalous behavior if at least one indication from the set of indications of actual behavior does not correspond to an indication from the set of indications of allowed behavior.

Abstract: The present disclosure generally relates to a dual free layer (DFL) two dimensional magnetic recording (TDMR) read head. The read head comprises a first sensor, a first rear hard bias (RHB) structure disposed adjacent to the first sensor, an upper shield disposed over the first sensor and first RHB structure, a lower shield disposed over the upper shield, a second sensor disposed over the lower shield, and a second RHB structure disposed adjacent to the second sensor. A first surface of the first sensor is substantially flush or aligned with a first surface of the first RHB structure. A first surface of the second sensor is substantially flush or aligned with a first surface of the second RHB structure. The upper shield extends linearly from a media facing surface into the read head. The first lower shield is over-milled a greater amount of time than the second lower shield.

Abstract: A magnetic read apparatus includes a media-facing surface (MFS), a sensor, a shield structure, a side bias structure, and a shield reference bias structure. The sensor includes a free layer and a nonmagnetic layer. The shield structure includes a shield pinning structure and a shield reference structure between the shield pinning structure and the nonmagnetic layer. The nonmagnetic layer is between the free layer and a shield reference structure. The shield pinning structure includes a pinned moment oriented in a first direction. The shield reference structure includes a reference structure moment weakly coupled with the pinned moment. The side bias structure is adjacent to a side of the free layer and biases the free layer in a first direction parallel to the MFS. The shield reference bias structure is adjacent to the shield reference structure and biases the shield reference structure in a direction opposite to the first direction.

Abstract: A method provides a magnetic read apparatus. A sensor stack is deposited. The read sensor is defined from the stack such that the sensor has sides forming a junction angle of 75 degrees-105 degrees from a sensor bottom. Defining the sensor includes performing a first ion mill at a first angle and a first energy and performing a second ion mill at a second angle greater than the first angle and at a second energy less than the first energy. The first angle is 5 degrees-30 degrees from normal to the top surface. After the first ion mill, less than half of the stack's bottom layer depth remains unmilled. Magnetic bias structure(s) adjacent to the sides may be formed. The magnetic bias structure(s) include a side shielding material having at least one of the saturation magnetization greater than 800 emu/cm3 and an exchange length less than five nanometers.
