  • Publication number: 20230179203
    Abstract: A circuit to enhance the driving capability of conventional inverting bootstrapping GaN drivers. When the inverting driver input is logic high and the driver output is off, the voltage stored on the first bootstrap capacitor for turning on the high side (pull-up) FET of the inverting driver is charged to the full supply voltage using an active charging FET, instead of using a diode or diode-connected FET in a conventional bootstrapping driver. The gate voltage of the active charging FET is bootstrapped to a voltage higher than supply voltage by a second bootstrap capacitor that connects to the inverting driver input, which is at a logic high. The second bootstrap capacitor is charged by an additional diode or diode-connected FET connected to the supply voltage when the inverting driver input is a logic low.

  • Patent number: 11659009
    Abstract: Disclosed in some examples, are methods, systems, and machine-readable mediums for identifying security vulnerabilities across a plurality of access control policies. An administrator of the computing resource may be alerted to these vulnerabilities to allow the administrator to craft a policy, or modify an existing policy, to close these security gaps. In other examples, the system may automatically suggest and/or apply a modification to an existing policy or a new access control policy that closes the security gaps. The vulnerabilities may be determined based upon a comparison of the access control policy criteria in the previously set access control policies and a set of possible values of access control signals to determine access scenarios that are not covered by the access control policies.

  • Patent number: 11652640
    Abstract: Example embodiments of systems and methods for application verification are provided. An application may generate a cryptographic key, and encrypt the cryptographic key with a predefined public key. A server, in data communication with the application, may include a predefined private key. The application may transmit the cryptographic key to the server. The server may receive, from the application, the cryptographic key; decrypt the cryptographic key using the predefined private key; encrypt an authorization token using the decrypted key; and transmit, to the client application, the authorization token via an out-of-band channel. The application may receive, from the server, the authorization token via the out-of-band channel; and decrypt the authorization token to obtain access to one or more services associated with the server.

  • Patent number: 11647026
    Abstract: Aspects of the disclosure relate to account lineage tracking and automatically executing responsive actions upon detecting an account lineage. A computing platform may receive a first account-change message from a source-level interceptor. The first account-change message may include information identifying a source account associated with a first computing device and identifying a first target account. The first target account may be associated with a target application configured to access the target database. The computing platform may receive a second account-change message from a database-level interceptor. The second account-change message may include information identifying the first target account as a database-level source account and identifying a second target account associated with one or more target databases.

  • Patent number: 11637870
    Abstract: Aspects of the disclosure relate to improving user responses to cyber security threats. A computing platform may generate a test communication to simulate a potential cyber threat activity. Then, the computing platform may send, via the communication interface, the test communication to a user device associated with a target user. Then, the computing platform may receive, via the communication interface and from the user device, a response to the test communication. Subsequently, the computing platform may determine, based on the response, a threat awareness level for the target user, where the threat awareness level is indicative of a susceptibility of the target user to the potential cyber threat activity. Then, the computing platform may send, to the target user and based on the threat awareness level, an alert notification to counter the cyber threat activity.

  • Patent number: 11630889
    Abstract: Aspects of the disclosure relate to physiological sensor-based monitoring and control systems. A computing device may determine a physiological measurement. Then, the computing device may compare the physiological measurement with one or more baseline values to determine whether the physiological measurement is anomalous with respect to the one or more baseline values. When the physiological measurement is determined to be anomalous with respect to the one or more baseline values, the computing device may execute access control on a device to prevent access by a user to one or more systems, applications, resources, or the like.

  • Publication number: 20230111542
    Abstract: A bidirectional GaN FET with a single gate formed by integrating a single-gate bidirectional GaN FET in parallel with a bidirectional device formed of two back-to-back GaN FETs with a common source. The single-gate bidirectional GaN FET occupies most of the integrated circuit die, such that the integrated device has a low channel resistance, while also capturing the advantages of a back-to-back bidirectional GaN FET device.

  • Patent number: 11559619
    Abstract: In some embodiments, a negative pressure wound therapy device includes a negative pressure source and a controller configured to, in response to determining that the negative pressure source is directly fluidically connected to a wound dressing without a canister between the two, operate the negative pressure source in a first mode; otherwise, operate the negative pressure source in a second, different mode. The controller can be further configured to, in response to determining that a level of activity of the negative pressure source over a first time duration satisfies at least one of a leak or blockage condition, provide an indication of at least one of a leak or blockage and, in response to determining that the level of activity does not satisfy the at least one of the leak or blockage condition over a second time duration subsequent to the first time duration, discontinue providing the indication.
