  • Publication number: 20240113974
    Abstract: Mobile management method, system and client. Method includes receiving a DNS query for a host name from an application on client; retrieving reputation data associated with host name from a local cache on client; and determining a policy based on host name and the reputation data. Based on determined policy for the host name, blocking attempted network flows to a host corresponding to host name to produce blocked attempted network flows. Method also includes sending attempted network flow metadata related to the blocked attempted network flows to a collector on client; transmitting the attempted network flow metadata from the collector to a VPN server pool via a VPN tunnel; and producing an anomaly report from the transmitted attempted network flow metadata. The anomaly report includes at least one of anomalies, cohorts, trends, location boundaries, detected network security issues, detected compromised clients and/or optimized network usage.

  • Patent number: 11921724
    Abstract: A stream computing application may be configured to manage the flow of tuples through a section of an operator graph. A window may be generated over one or more stream operators. The window may include breakpoint thresholds that set the maximum flow of tuples within the window. The stream operators within the window may be monitored to determine the flow of tuples occurring within the window using tuple flow counts. The tuple flow counts may be compared to the breakpoint thresholds to determine whether a breakpoint condition has occurred. If a breakpoint condition has occurred, a tuple flow change may be implemented to reduce the flow of tuples within the window.

  • Publication number: 20070288755
    Abstract: The present invention relates to a method of verifying identity of a registrant by an application provider. In one embodiment the method includes the steps of transmitting by the registrant a request for registration to the application provider; receiving by the application provider the request and transmitting a passcode to the registrant in response thereto; and calling by the registrant the application provider from a phone having a caller identification associated with the registrant; and providing by the registrant the passcode to the application provider. A system of verifying identity of a registrant is also includes the method provided herein.

  • Patent number: 5145257
    Abstract: A temperature sensor comprising a probe, infrared fibers, super-cooled detors and their associated electronics, and a computer for determining the temperature from the output of the electronics. Photons from a heat source are collected by the infrared fibers and transmitted to the detectors where they are amplified by the electronics. A voltage is then outputted which represents measured temperature. The voltage is sampled by the computer where it is converted to temperature by use of computer algorithms.
