  • Patent number: 12099826
    Abstract: The disclosure herein describes managing software patches for software applications of computing devices. A release of a software patch associated with a software application of the computing devices is detected. The software patch is analyzed based on patch analysis rules, wherein the patch analysis rules include vulnerability rules configured to indicate whether the released software patch addresses known vulnerabilities. Based on the analysis resulting in approval for installation of the patch, a current test image of the software application is identified, and the patch is applied to the test image to form a patched image. Tests are performed on the patched image, include patch-specific tests. Based on the results of the tests indicating that the patched image passed at least a subset of the tests, the software patch is applied to application instances of the software application on the computing devices, whereby the patch is deployed to the computing devices.

  • Publication number: 20110047059
    Abstract: R-M-X is an online platform design and utility to allow borrowers to search for and execute mortgage loan alternatives across a pool of lenders. R-M-X will allow borrowers and lenders to enter into standardized loans through R-M-X rather than directly as bilateral agreements. Each mortgage will be bifurcated into a credit and funding component. Borrowers and lenders can each separately manage the credit and funding components of the loan. Also, R-M-X will act as a primary and secondary trading exchange and clearing entity for collateral and funding lenders providing trading, clearing and standardization for retail liabilities including residential mortgages.
