Abstract: Particular embodiments described herein provide for an electronic device that can be configured to receive untrusted input data at an enclave in an electronic device, isolate the untrusted input data from at least a portion of the enclave, communicate at least a portion of the untrusted data to an integrity verification module using an attestation channel, and receive data integrity verification of the untrusted input data from the integrity verification module. The integrity verification module can perform data integrity attestation functions to verify the untrusted data and the data integrity attestation functions include a data attestation policy and a whitelist.

Abstract: In an example, a system and method for outbreak pathology inference are described. In certain computational ecosystems, malware programs and other malicious objects may infect a machine, and then attempt to infect additional machines that are “networked” to the first machine. In some cases, the network may be a physical or logical network, such as an enterprise network. However, “social networking” may also connect one machine to another, because users may share files or data with one another over social networks. In that case, client devices may be equipped with a telemetry engine to gather and report data about the machine, while a system management server receives reported telemetry. The system management server may use both logical networks and social networks to infer potential outbreak paths and behaviors of malware.

Abstract: Methods, apparatus, systems and articles of manufacture are disclosed to pair devices to an in-body network. An example apparatus disclosed herein includes a device capability manager to identify remote sensors associated with a candidate medical device, an encryption engine to provide the candidate medical device with hashing instructions to be applied to input values from selected ones of the remote sensors, a measurement engine to acquire input values from local sensors corresponding to the selected ones of the available remote sensors during a measurement schedule, the encryption engine to apply the hashing instructions to the input values from the local sensors, and a pairing engine to authorize the candidate medical device when an encryption key associated with the remote sensors includes a threshold indication of parity with an encryption key associated with the local sensors.

Abstract: The present invention relates generally to a system and method for verifying, settling, guaranteeing and printing checks at a remote location, preferably an electronic retailer's facilities, via a network, preferably the Internet. The preferred method for verifying, settling, guaranteeing and printing checks over a network at a remote location comprises the following steps. A client computer is connected to a merchant server at a location remote from the client computer. An order is transmitted from the client computer to the merchant server. Payment by check is selected. The client computer is connected to a check server. Customer data is input to the client computer. The customer data is transmitted from the client computer to the check server. The customer data is transmitted from the check server to a check verification server. The check verification server transmits an approval, preferably comprising the customer data and a guarantee of payment to a merchant, to the client computer and the check server.
