Abstract: A distributed data security event detection and response (DDSEDR) system includes a data security management (DSM) system and a client-side data security event confirmation and response (CDSECR) system that manage data security events, such as ransomware attacks. In at least one embodiment, the DDSEDR system provides data security event detection, confirmation, mitigation, alerting, and recovery from malicious processes and other data security events. In at least one embodiment, the DSM system monitors one or more client file event records for information that indicates a potential data security event. If the DSM system detects a potential data security threat, the DSM, sends information to the CDSECR system that causes CDSECR system to inspect one or more files associated with the potential data security event to determine whether an actual data security event occurred and initiate a responsive action when the CDSECR system detects an actual data security event.

Abstract: A work holding system for repeatably holding work pieces in a very precise position and orientation for machining operations or the like to be performed thereon. The work holding system comprises a cooperating receiver and pallet assembly. The receiver is mounted on a suitable surface. A work piece is mounted on the pallet. A cooperating pair of matable male and female polygons are provided, one mounted in the receiver and the other mounted in the pallet. The pallet and the receiver have cooperating, abuttable, annular surfaces. The pallet is mountable on the receiver with the male and female polygons mated to repeatably provide highly precise concentricity or centering of the work piece and the pallet with respect to the receiver. The abutment of the annular surfaces of the receiver and pallet assures highly precise, repeatable flatness or parallelism of the pallet with respect to the receiver so that the receiver axis and the centered pallet axis are coaxial.

Abstract: In an electrolytic cell of the membrane type wherein the anolyte and catholyte are separated by a hydraulically impermeable membrane, the improvement comprising limiting the hydraulically impermeable membrane portion of the divider between anolyte and catholyte chambers to that area which is between the active areas of the anode and cathode while all other areas between catholyte and anolyte chambers are nonpermeable so as to minimize back-migration of undesirable ions which decrease overall current efficiency. Specifically, in a chlor-alkali cell an electrode would be enclosed in a fluorinated ethylene propylene enclosure having window-like openings therein made from Nafion type hydraulically impermeable cation exchange membrane, said window-like openings exposing only active electrode areas.

Abstract: Disclosed is a bipolar electrode and method for electrically and mechanically connecting the backplates of a bipolar electrode to be used in a filter press electrolytic cell for electrochemical production. This method employs the use of explosion bonded solid metallic strips between the two backplates of a bipolar electrode to provide the esential electrical and mechanical connection therebetween while leaving sufficient air space to allow the escape of hydrogen gas thereby preventing hydrogen embrittlement of the titanium anode backplate.

Abstract: An apparatus for interrupting the passage of electrical current along a mixed stream of gas and liquid.

Abstract: Electrolytic cell in which hollow cylindrical electrodes are arranged concentrically, anode within the cathode, and having a tubular ion permeable membrane supported on the outside of the anode separating the anolyte and the catholyte. The anolyte is contained within the membrane-anode structure, affording reduced construction cost and greater efficiency per unit of cell volume.
