  • Patent number: 12003656
    Abstract: Systems, methods and computer-readable mediums may use intrinsic behavior of an integrated circuit (IC) chip to generate Physically Unclonable Function (PUF) vector bits. A processor of the system may be configured to receive a plurality of temperature values corresponding to a plurality of respective temperature measurement values obtained by a plurality of respective temperature sensors disposed on the IC chip. The processor may be further configured to process the temperature measurement values to generate PUF vector bits that can be used to generate a security key.

  • Publication number: 20240080352
    Abstract: A server operates between a customer and a subscriber to store data associated with the customer and data comprising media content associated with the subscriber. The server is configured to receive from the customer a request for content associated with products or services provided by the subscriber. The request is triggered by scanning a code by a user device operated by the customer. The request causes the server to retrieve customer information from data storage operated by the server. Based on the retrieved customer information and the request for content from the customer, the server retrieves personalized data associated with the subscriber. The personalized data comprises the media content associated with the subscriber that is tailored based on customer preferences stored in the server.

  • Patent number: 11765216
    Abstract: A server operates between a patron (user), a subscriber (e.g., owner of a venue of exhibits and its website; museum, stadium, zoo, theme park, etc.), and possibly third parties such as a content distribution network (CDN). Access and content delivery are based on 1) control information provided to a patron device by physical objects at the venue and sent by the patron device to the server as part of a mutual authentication to one another, 2) user-specific information corresponding to the patron device, and 3) a pre-authorization exchange granting user-device access to physical objects and the server with the server receiving access to the user-specific information in order to locate requested information and select a subset thereof adapted in accordance with the user information. Moving physically between exhibits, a patron device rapidly disengages and re-engages the server, based thereon, without repeated logins.

    Abstract: A server operates between a patron (user), a subscriber (e.g., owner of a venue of exhibits and its website; museum, stadium, zoo, theme park, etc.), and possibly third parties such as a content distribution network (CDN). Access and content delivery are based on 1) control information provided to a patron device by physical objects at the venue and sent by the patron device to the server as part of a mutual authentication to one another, 2) user-specific information corresponding to the patron device, and 3) a pre-authorization exchange granting user-device access to physical objects and the server with the server receiving access to the user-specific information in order to locate requested information and select a subset thereof adapted in accordance with the user information. Moving physically between exhibits, a patron device rapidly disengages and re-engages the server, based thereon, without repeated logins.

  • Patent number: 10837413
    Abstract: An air delivery system for an engine includes a first air filter, a second air filter, a first conduit, a second conduit, an air box, and a third conduit. Each of the first air filter and the first conduit, and each of the second air filter and the second conduit are disposed at a first angle with respect to a lateral axis of the air box. The first angle is adapted to limit restriction to flow of intake air from each of the first air filter and the second air filter toward the air box. The third conduit is disposed at a second angle with respect to a longitudinal axis of the air box. The second angle is adapted to limit restriction to the flow of intake air from the air box to the engine.

  • Patent number: 10333965
    Abstract: Methods, and computing devices implementing the methods, that enable client computing devises to work in conjunction with a server device to identify and temporarily defend against non-benign applications (e.g., malware, etc.) and other threats before a more permanent solution or defense (e.g., a patch or software upgrade) becomes available and installed on the client computing device. The server device may be configured to receive reports from the client computing devices, receive threat feeds from third-party servers (e.g., threat intelligence servers, etc.), and use information included in the received threat feed and information included in the received reports to analyze, in the server computing device, a software application that is operating on a client device in multiple passes. The server may generate threat scores (e.g., one for each pass, etc.), and the threat scores to the client computing device for use in devising a customized security response.

  • Publication number: 20180167383
    Abstract: Authentication techniques are provided that integrate platform-specific authentication and federated identity authentication. An example method for authenticating a user according to these techniques includes authenticating the user of a user device with a relying party and an authentication entity. The user device and the relying party support platform-specific authentication and the authentication entity does not support platform-specific authentication. The method further includes accessing an application or service provided by the relying party responsive to authenticating the user of the user device with both the relying party and the authentication entity.

  • Publication number: 20180127932
    Abstract: A roadway guardrail system including a rail and plurality of support posts assembled such that upon impact from a vehicle the rail moves upwardly with respect to the support posts. Fasteners and block-outs may be used in the operative coupling of the rail to the support posts. Upon impact the fasteners and the block-outs move upwardly with respect to the support posts and the rail moves upwardly along with the fasteners and the block-outs.

  • Publication number: 20180091553
    Abstract: Various embodiments provide methods, devices, and non-transitory processor-readable storage media enabling dynamically modifying the polling frequency of endpoint devices within an endpoint protection system. Various embodiments may include determining, by an endpoint device of a network environment, whether communication device endpoint protection is active on the endpoint device. That is, the endpoint device may check to ensure that anomaly detection software, device health monitors, or other malware detection is in active operation. The endpoint device may adjust, modify, or alter the frequency with which it transmits polling messages to a network server based, at least in part, on a result of the determination as to whether communication device endpoint protection is active. For example, if the endpoint device determines that communication device endpoint protection is active, the endpoint device may reduce the polling frequency.

Fasteners may be used in the operative coupling of the rail to the support posts, such that upon impact the fasteners move upwardly with respect to the support posts and the rail moves upwardly along with the fasteners. The guardrail system may further include a reinforcing member that is slidable along the post and operatively coupled to the rail with the fasteners, such that the rail and fasteners slide along with the reinforcing member with respect to the support posts. The reinforcing member may be a spacer of various shapes, a washer, an additional rail section, or other type of member that allows the rail to slide upwardly with respect to the post.
