Patent number: 11522896Abstract: Systems, methods, and interfaces for the management of virtual machine instances and other programmatically controlled networks are provided. The hosted virtual networks are configured in a manner such that a virtual machine manager of the virtual network may monitor activity such as user requests, network traffic, and the status and execution of various virtual machine instances to determine possible security assessments. Aspects of the virtual network may be assessed for vulnerabilities at varying levels of granularity and sophistication when a suspicious event or triggering activity is detected. Illustrative embodiments of the systems and methods may be implemented on a virtual network overlaid on one or more intermediate physical networks that are used as a substrate network.Type: GrantFiled: December 17, 2014Date of Patent: December 6, 2022Assignee: Amazon Technologies, Inc.Inventors: Eric Jason Brandwine, Donald L.

Patent number: 9076013Abstract: Embodiments of systems and methods are described for managing requests for security services to a provider of computing resources. In some implementations, a user can request that security services be provided to analyze or test a target network. For example, the user can request that security services conduct penetration testing of the target network in order to detect vulnerabilities with the target network's security infrastructure or configuration. The computing resource provider can dynamically provide the security services to the target network, for example, by instantiating one or more virtual machines that begin security testing of the target network in response to the user's request. In some embodiments, the provider of the security services may instantiate a security virtual machine instance (VMI) that can be connected to a customer's network using a secure connection, such as a virtual private network.Type: GrantFiled: February 28, 2011Date of Patent: July 7, 2015Assignee: Amazon Technologies, Inc.Inventors: Donald L.

Patent number: 4521975Abstract: A pledget of biological material of predetermined unit dosage is formed by a lyophilizing process. The lyophilizing process involves establishing a specific batch volume of sterile water, dissolving a preestablished amount of biological material in the batch volume of water, filling at least one container with a portion of the solution of water and dissolved material, and lyophilizing the solution in the container into the pledget. The amount of biological material to be dissolved in the water is established in relation to the volume and number of containers, the desired predetermined unit dosage of each pledget, and the desired number of pledgets to be formed at a time.Type: GrantFiled: July 30, 1982Date of Patent: June 11, 1985Assignee: Marquest Medical Products, Inc.Inventor: Donald L.

Patent number: 4326540Abstract: A syringe device has a hollow tubular body that receives a plunger, having in combination a handle portion rotatable within a sealing member portion, for obtaining gas-free blood samples. After an interior chamber of the syringe body is filled with blood under the influences of an individual's blood pressure, a seal is selectively established to isolate the sample. The syringe body is open at one end to receive the plunger and frictionally receives a hypodermic needle through a cylindrical end element disposed at the other end. A pair of linearatly extending seal interrupters, sliced from the handle portion of the plunger, extend from a position fixed on the handle portion across the sealing member to establish breach points, which in turn allow air communication between the interior chamber and the atmosphere. A pair of grooves disposed longitudinally near the open end of the syringe body retain the seal interrupters and prevent permanent indentations from forming in the sealing member while in storage.Type: GrantFiled: November 6, 1979Date of Patent: April 27, 1982Assignee: Marquest Medical Products, Inc.Inventors: Donald L. Bailey, Charles Williams
