  • Publication number: 20240139531
    Abstract: Apparatus and methods for generating pulse pacing in a wearable cardioverter defibrillator (“WCD”). In one aspect the WCD circuitry includes a power source such as a battery coupled to a charger that provides charge energy to an energy storage module. Control circuitry is operatively coupled to the charger and the output circuitry, and configured to cause the WCD circuitry to generate pacing pulses delivered to therapy electrodes (attached to an ambulatory patient) without a current source. The WCD circuitry includes one or more processing elements that are used to execute instructions provided by one or more software modules that are configured to support various functionality, including controlling generation of pacing pulses.

  • Patent number: 11277424
    Abstract: In one embodiment, a monitoring process identifies a set of counters maintained by a networking device by comparing a configuration of the networking device to an object relationship model. The monitoring process obtains counter values from the identified set of counters maintained by the networking device. The monitoring process detects an anomaly by using the obtained counter values as input to a machine learning-based anomaly detector. The monitoring process generates an anomaly detection alert for the detected anomaly.

  • Patent number: 10904217
    Abstract: A source virtual private network (VPN) gateway supports a local source subnet and communicates over a wide area network (WAN) with a destination VPN gateway that supports a local destination subnet. The source VPN gateway receives from the local source subnet an Internet Protocol (IP) packet destined for the local destination subnet, determines a security association (SA) based on a source IP address and a destination IP address of the IP packet, and encapsulates the IP packet with tunnel encapsulation including a tunnel protocol header and a tunnel outer IP header, to produce a clear-text tunnel packet. The source VPN gateway encrypts the IP packet and the tunnel protocol header but not the tunnel outer IP header using an encryption key and a security parameter index for the SA, to produce an encrypted tunnel packet, and tunnels it to the destination VPN gateway over the WAN.
