Abstract: A method for biometric authentication of a user of a mobile device, and a case for performing the method is provided. The method includes, by the case, coupling the mobile device to the case, receiving from the mobile device biometric data of the user of the mobile device that was captured by the mobile device, storing the biometric data, receiving a request from the mobile device for authenticating the user of the mobile device, the request including biometric data captured by the mobile device, comparing the biometric data stored in the case and the biometric data included in the request, and sending to the mobile device a response to the request for authenticating the user of the mobile device based on a result of the comparison, wherein the response to the request is for use by the mobile device to perform an operation based on the authentication of the user.

Abstract: An implantable medical device with at least a portion of a wall thereof being coated to prevent fluid flow therethrough, and having one or more uncoated anti-migration features promoting tissue ingrowth therearound. The anti-migration features may be partially-closed or fully closed shapes forming a retention portion transverse to the direction along which migration forces typically impact the implantable medical device at the anatomical site at which the implantable medical device is to be deployed.

Abstract: An implantable device having an expandable element, such as a balloon, exerting a radially-outwardly directed anti-migration force to hold the implantable device in place. The implantable device occlusion device may be an occlusion device configured to be inserted through a body passage. The implantable device may include a first component and a second component expandable within a lumen of the first component to exert an antimigration force against the first component. The first component may be an expandable stent coated to resist tissue ingrowth, and the second component may be an expandable balloon configured to exert an anti-migration force against the expandable stent.

Abstract: Disclosed herein are embodiments of systems, methods, and products comprises an analytic server, which automatically manage network policy. The analytic server determines the electronic communication protocol restrictions including access rules and the connectivity restrictions of electronic devices within a local area network, and segments the local area network into multiple subnetworks that are isolated from each other. The analytic server assigns an electronic device joining the local area network into one of the subnetworks according to the communication protocol determined by the device identifier. The analytic server monitors data traffic of the electronic devices of the local area network. The analytic server transmits an alert notification to a user device when the data traffic does not satisfy the electronic communication protocol restrictions, and updates the electronic communication protocol restrictions in a restriction database with new rules learned from the network.
