  • Patent number: 11934888
    Abstract: There is provided a system, comprising: a hardware processor(s) executing a code for: receiving a request to identify data for execution of action(s) in a limited allocated memory resource (LAMR) of a blockchain storage system, the LAMR defining storage space for storing data of smart contracts, when the requested data is not found in the LAMR, acquiring a cryptographic proof of the requested data from the LAMR, using the cryptographic proof for acquiring a copy of the requested data from a virtual allocated memory resource (VAMR), storing the copy of the requested data in the LAMR for performing the action(s) by the blockchain storage system using the stored copy, the performance of the action(s) updates the stored copy in the LAMR, replacing the cryptographic proof with a new cryptographic proof created by processing the updated stored copy in the LAMR, and storing the updated stored copy in the VAMR.

  • Patent number: 11902559
    Abstract: Techniques are provided for generation of secure video and tamper detection of the secure video. A methodology implementing the techniques according to an embodiment includes selecting a subset of macroblocks from a video frame to be transmitted and calculating a low frequency metric on each of the selected macroblocks. The method also includes performing a hash calculation on the low frequency metrics to generate a frame signature; encrypting the frame signature (using a private key) to generate an encrypted watermark; and modifying pixels of each of the selected macroblocks to generate the secured video frame, the modifications based on bits of the encrypted watermark that are associated with the selected macroblock. The method further includes authenticating a received video frame by comparing a calculated frame signature to an authenticated frame signature, the authenticated frame signature decrypted (using a public key) from an extracted watermark of the received video frame.

  • Publication number: 20230186255
    Abstract: Method, system, and computer program product for executing cryptocurrency transactions. A request to execute a transaction related to a first cryptocurrency token is received by a secure ledger network. The secure ledger network executes a smart contract validated thereby and determining at least one rule for performing the transaction. Execution of the transaction comprising determining a price of the first cryptocurrency token and/or an amount of at least one of the first cryptocurrency token and another cryptocurrency token obtained in exchange of one another, based on a group of parameters comprising: a total amount (Tt) of the first cryptocurrency token in circulation, a total reserve (Tr) of the other cryptocurrency token in a reserve, and a reserve ratio constant (Rr) predefined as a ratio between the total reserve and a token market cap. A secure ledger maintained by the secure ledger network is updated about completion of the transaction.

  • Publication number: 20220321771
    Abstract: The disclosure generally relates to method, system and apparatus for privacy enhancement mode for integrated cameras. In an exemplary embodiment, the disclosure allows a user of a device equipped with an integrated device to engage the device in the so-called privacy mode whereby while the camera is engaged, the device does not broadcast the user's images; rather the device uses the camera to detect, discern and determine the user's attributes. Such attributes may include one or more of movement, motion, mood, gesture and temperature of the user. The attributes may include specificities of the user's environment.

  • Patent number: 8762962
    Abstract: Embodiments of the methods and apparatus for automatic cross language program code translation are provided. One or more characters of a source programming language code are tokenized to generate a list of tokens. Thereafter, the list of tokens is parsed to generate a grammatical data structure comprising one or more data nodes. The grammatical data structure may be an abstract syntax tree. The one or more data nodes of the grammatical data structure are processed to generate a document object model comprising one or more portable data nodes. Subsequently, the one or more portable data nodes in the document object model are analyzed to generate one or more characters of a target programming language code.
