Publication number: 20250028820Abstract: A method includes monitoring user activities at an endpoint device on a network, determining if a user activity at the endpoint device presents a potential threat to network security, creating an alert of the threat, and providing the alert with a redacted version of a screenshot from the endpoint device. One or more open windows are obscured or removed in the redacted version of the screenshot of the endpoint device. Providing the redacted includes receiving data describing physical characteristics of the open window(s) from an operating system, receiving a screenshot of the screen of the endpoint device, and obscuring the one or more open windows by creating one or more visual covers. Each visual cover matches a size and shape of one of the open windows based on the data that describes the physical characteristics of the open window(s). Each visual cover is placed over the corresponding open window.Type: ApplicationFiled: October 9, 2024Publication date: January 23, 2025Inventors: Yigal Meshulam, Tamir Pivnik, David Cohen, Alexander Kremer, Mayank Choudhary, Tal Tikotzki, Mike McKee, Nir Barak, Tal Yaffe

Patent number: 11472511Abstract: A hydrofoil wing attachment system that comprises a strut or struts and a hydrofoil wing fastening apparatus for various watercraft including, but not limited to, surf boards, kite boards, and stand up paddle boards. In one embodiment the system interfaces with legacy surfboard fin-box systems, thus allowing a user to interchange fins for hydrofoils and transform their watercraft into a hydrofoil watercraft. Other embodiment's of the system allow the implementation of a single-strut/wing combination and also a double-strut/wing combination among other variations. The design of the wing clamping apparatus allows the user to mechanically secure the wing and also configure the angle of attack of the hydrofoil wing. The modular design, configuration options, and high degree of interchangeability of the hydrofoil wing attachment system enables the user to experiment with multiple strut/wing configurations, wing/strut designs, and also the angle of attack.Type: GrantFiled: January 15, 2020Date of Patent: October 18, 2022Inventor: Menko David Mckee

Patent number: 9075288Abstract: A pan tilt zoom (PTZ) camera system implements a disc valve system to enhance the cooling of electronics. The disc valve system includes a static camera base and a rotating camera pan bearing. The static camera base has static base vent slots arranged along the perimeter of the static camera base. The rotating camera pan bearing includes at least one pan bearing vent slot that aligns with the static base vent slots. During rotation of the rotating camera pan bearing, the at least one pan bearing vent slot aligns with the static base vent slots enabling movement of air over electronics of the (PTZ) camera system.Type: GrantFiled: September 5, 2013Date of Patent: July 7, 2015Assignee: Sensormatic Electronics, LLCInventors: Frederick Michael McBride, David McKee

Patent number: 8700646Abstract: Methods, program products, and systems for displaying data in formatted views using reference files are described. In some implementations, a database application program can generate a result set using one or more queries. The result set can contain actual data from a database and metadata. The metadata can contain references to data records in the database, the references can include identifiers that can identify the data records. When a user saves a database report file, the user can save at least a part of the result set using the identifiers instead of the queries and layouts. Thus, the result set can be saved as a reference file. When the database application program opens the saved reference file, the database application program can reproduce the result set using the stored references without running all of the queries.Type: GrantFiled: August 12, 2009Date of Patent: April 15, 2014Assignee: Apple Inc.Inventors: Vladimir Brad, Christopher Crim, David McKee, Stephen Iremonger, Toufic Milan

Publication number: 20060185733Abstract: A gravity flow drain extension is adapted for attachment to an exit opening of a condensation drain line. The drain extension includes an extension line for receiving and transporting water. The open connecting end of the extension line is attached to the exit opening of the condensation drain line, such that water exiting the condensation drain line enters the extension line. The extension line defines at least one discharge opening downstream of its connecting end for dispensing water at a location away from the exit opening of the condensation drain line. A backflow preventer upstream of the at least one discharge opening prevents backflow of water into the condensation drain line.Type: ApplicationFiled: April 5, 2006Publication date: August 24, 2006Inventor: David McKee

Publication number: 20040035558Abstract: A heat transfer device such as a heat sink has one or more heat pipe tubes mounted in a base plate. The heat pipe tubes have a working fluid in a vessel with a wicking material between an evaporator and condenser. The heat pipe traverses a through opening in the base plate and extends along a receptacle in the base plate facing the heat source, this portion preferably defining the heat pipe evaporator. The heat pipe has legs extending perpendicularly from the base plate, and preferably hold spaced heat transfer fins, the legs forming the condenser part of a stacked tower of fins on the base plate. Preferably two or more heat pipes are provided in the form of U-shaped or L-shaped tubes that are flattened along the underside of the base plate to bear against the heat source.Type: ApplicationFiled: June 12, 2003Publication date: February 26, 2004Inventors: John J.
