  • Publication number: 20240064013
    Abstract: A method of making cryptographic key metadata available to key owners while protecting the integrity of the cryptographic key metadata comprises extracting key metadata from a metadata storage on a key data storage system. The metadata storage is logically isolated from a sensitive cryptographic data storage on the key data storage system. The method further comprises transmitting, by unidirectional communication, the extracted key metadata to a user-accessible metadata database that is separate and distinct from the metadata storage on the key data storage system. The method identifies, from the user-accessible metadata database, user-specific metadata for at least one cryptographic key associated with an authorized user associated with the at least one cryptographic key, and communicates the identified user-specific metadata to the authorized user.

  • Publication number: 20240007433
    Abstract: A system provides for event-driven redirection of IP service flows and receives an add event that triggers revectoring of all network traffic that use an Internet gateway that directs all network traffic to unfettered Internet access; provides a new lease for a specified address; transmits, to the Internet gateway, new instructions; the Internet gateway redirects all network traffic originating from the Internet gateway to a specified destination corresponding to an advertisement content server that presents a predetermined amount of advertisement content; receives a remove event corresponding to the specified address; provides a new lease for the specified address; and transmits second new instructions corresponding to values existing prior to the redirection of all network traffic to the specified destination, thereby directing all of the network traffic originating from the Internet gateway back to unfettered Internet access.

  • Patent number: 11860294
    Abstract: Techniques and apparatuses are described that implement electromagnetic vector sensors (EMVS) for a smart-device-based radar system. Instead of including an antenna array of similar antenna elements, the radar system includes two or more electromagnetic vector sensors. At least one of the electromagnetic vector sensors is used for transmission and at least another of the electromagnetic vector sensors is used for reception. Each electromagnetic vector sensor includes a group of antennas with different antenna patterns, orientations, and/or polarizations. An overall footprint of the two electromagnetic vector sensors (e.g., one for transmission and one for reception) can be smaller than antenna arrays used by other radar systems, thereby enabling the radar system to be implemented within space-constrained devices.

  • Publication number: 20230389855
    Abstract: A computer-implemented method and system includes accessing neurophysiological and neurovascular data recorded during sleep. A function mapping is executed from said neurophysiological and neurovascular data to a target that is one of a glymphatic flow marker, a molecular analysis marker of neurodegeneration, or a neuroimaging marker of neurodegeneration. A target prediction model is output based on the function mapping. The target prediction model can receive new neurophysiological and neurovascular data and output a predicted marker of neurodegeneration.

  • Publication number: 20230368297
    Abstract: According to some embodiments, an indication of a trade priced relative to a reference benchmark value (e.g., a trade at index close transaction) associated with an underlying index future may be received when a basis of the trade is agreed to by parties of the trade. Moreover, the indication may be received at least one day prior to a determination of a final price and quantity of the trade. The trade might create, according to some embodiments, any derivative, such as a future, an option, or a combination of put and call options. The trade may be reported and cleared, and it may then be arranged for the trade to physically settle into the underlying index future.
