Patent number: 10318734Abstract: Data can be scanned using a network managed appliance. The network managed appliance may integrate commercial hardware elements connected through a basic or simplified operating system environment expressly developed for the appliance, thus being more malware resistant and less vulnerable to attacks from the scanned data or other sources. The network managed appliance may be a self-contained apparatus with an integrated chassis, designed and configured as “single-purpose” device. Such appliances may be connected to an appliance management network including central management servers in communication with appliances in remote locations. The central management servers may ensure that scanning software and the definitions lists for each of the appliances are current and match an enterprise-approved configuration. In addition, an antivirus appliance may facilitate creation and management of user rights assignments for those files.Type: GrantFiled: October 30, 2014Date of Patent: June 11, 2019Assignee: Leidos, Inc.Inventors: Alan G. Young, Paul L. Bartruff, Eric E. Brown, Michael P. Miley

Patent number: 9573260Abstract: An automatic fastening device includes a driving mechanism for driving a double-headed fastener and a magazine for receiving and delivering the double-headed fastener to the driving mechanism. The magazine includes a first channel that receives a first head of the fastener and a second channel that receives a second head of the same fastener. The first and second channels guide the fastener along the magazine and toward an actuation component of the driving mechanism for driving the fastener into an object. A plurality of double-headed fasteners are inserted into the magazine, guided by the magazine to the driving mechanism, and driven one at a time into an object such that the first head of the fasteners extends from the object for easy removal of the fasteners.Type: GrantFiled: May 8, 2013Date of Patent: February 21, 2017Inventors: Arthur R. Walters, Jr., Eric E. Brown
