  • Patent number: 11096805
    Abstract: A liner for a prosthesis, wherein the liner is made of a liner material and comprises a proximal opening for accommodating an amputation stump, a distal end, a longitudinal direction, which extends from the proximal opening to the distal end, and an auxetic material The auxetic material is a two-dimensional-auxetic material, which is arranged in such a way that an extension of the liner in the longitudinal direction leads to an expansion of a diameter of the liner.

  • Patent number: 11102010
    Abstract: The present disclosure relates to security risk warning system that a recipient may acknowledge and act accordingly. Security insights may be provided explicitly in a security insight panel that may clearly identify vulnerabilities specific to a particular authenticable communication. This may limit risk that a recipient would ignore or not understand the risk. Security insights may be provided for a combination of indicated source, recipients, and content, such as links, text, attachments, and images. Security insights may be provided on site, such as on or proximate to the reviewed portions of the authenticable communication.

  • Publication number: 20200274717
    Abstract: The present disclosure provides generally for system and method of authenticating a source of electronic communication. According to the present disclosure, authenticable communications may allow for authentication of a source of the electronic communication, which may limit potential damage caused by fraudulent communications. In some aspects, an authenticable communication may allow the recipient to confirm that the indicated source is the actual source of the authenticable communication. In some embodiments, the authentication may not require an exchange of encrypted communications or an exchange of communications solely within the same communication system. Authenticable communications may provide a separate layer of security that may allow a recipient to review the contents with confidence that the communication is not fraudulent. Further, authenticable communications may provide the additional security without requiring specialized software.
