Abstract: A data storage device includes advertised internet protocol (IP) addresses, a logical data storage, and a resource request processor. The logical data storage includes an object storage. The resource request processor obtains a data access request that includes a destination IP address and that requests a portion of data stored in the object storage. The resource request processor makes a determination to allow access to the portion of the data based on a multifactor authorization. The multifactor authorization is based, at least in part, on an association between the destination IP address and the portion of the data. In response to the determination, resource request processor provides the portion of the data to a requestor specified in the data access request.

Abstract: A method for verifying the quality of manufactured components by conducting manufacturing site inspections of components remotely from another site, such as a component integration site. Selected components are physically tested and digitally photographed at the manufacturing site and the resulting test reports and digital photographs are electronically transmitted to the other site. An inspector views the test reports and digital photographs, then generates an inspection report for transmission back to the manufacturing site. Upon receipt of approval of the tested and photographed components, personnel at the manufacturing site ship the components. Component inspectors are relieved of the burden of traveling to manufacturing sites and manufacturers do not have to delay shipment or further production while waiting for a physical inspection of components.
