Abstract: The present disclosure concerns a computer-implemented method for reconstructing a dataset after detection of a network security threat in a network. The method comprises: determining a maximum flow for returning data associated with the network security threat to a source dataset via each of a plurality of paths through which the data has passed from the source dataset to the destination dataset; starting from the destination dataset, determining the data to be transferred to each dataset in the plurality of paths between the destination dataset and the one or more source datasets such that the data can be returned to the one or more source datasets, the data transferred in each path not exceeding the determined maximum flow for the path; adding the details of the determined amount of data to be transferred to a forensic report; and outputting the forensic report.

Abstract: The present disclosure concerns a computer-implemented method for forensically analysing and determining a network associated with a network security threat. The method comprises: obtaining details of a flagged network event comprising data associated with a network security threat, the network event being between a first dataset and a destination dataset; tracing the data associated with the network security threat from the first dataset to a further dataset, the tracing involving obtaining details of at least one past network event between the first dataset and the further dataset; comparing details of the further dataset to predefined criteria to identify whether the further dataset is an intermediate dataset or a source dataset from which the data originated and adding the details of the further dataset to a forensic report; outputting the forensic report.

Abstract: Methods and delivery systems for providing a gas phase of a multi-component liquid source for delivery to a critical process application are provided. The methods include concentration of a component of the liquid source which is less volatile than water for delivery of a gas stream comprising the less volatile component to a critical process application. Critical process applications include decontamination and microelectronic processing applications.

Abstract: Methods, systems, and devices for decontaminating materials containing biological or biologically derived materials, such as microorganisms or DNA products, are provided. The methods, systems, and devices may be used for decontaminating or sterilizing materials, such as surfaces, including, but not limited to reducing the number of viable microorganisms on surfaces. The methods, systems, and devices may further be used for rendering DNA non-amplifiable in nucleic acid amplification reactions that synthesize DNA amplification products.

Abstract: A system and method for guiding a dropped suspended load includes a safety winch, safety buoy, and safety anchor spaced relative to one another and an offshore rig's lifting system so that the dropped load falls away from certain seabed locations and to a safe landing area. A safety winch cable runs from the safety winch to the safety buoy, and from the safety buoy to a connection to the load. The load, when in a run-away state, falls away from vertical and toward a predetermined safe landing spot on the seabed floor. The safety buoy is then used to locate the load.

Abstract: A system for raising and lowering objects includes a carriage subsystem with a tubular body having an interior central channel an inner diameter greater than the outer diameter of an elongated tubular support structure. A plurality of guides facilitate linear translation of the carriage on the vertical structure without marring. At least one hook on the carriage pivots to engage a slot on the support structure for locking the carriage in a raised position. Objects are attached to a flange on the carriage. A winch and cable control motion of the carriage.

Abstract: A system for raising and lowering a wide range of objects on an elongated tubular structure includes a carriage subsystem with a tubular body having an interior central channel an inner diameter greater than the outer diameter of the elongated tubular structure. Rollers facilitate linear translation of the tubular body along the elongated tubular structure. At least one hook is pivotally mounted on the tubular body and configured to controllably engage a means for locking the carriage in a raised position. The carriage subsystem also includes a flange for attaching an object to the carriage subsystem. A winch and cable control motion of the carriage system between a lowered position adjacent to the base and a raised position adjacent to the top of the tubular structure. A collar attached to the top of the tubular structure includes a tubular body with an outer diameter less than the inner diameter of the tubular body of the carriage subsystem.

Abstract: Planter systems allow for the raising, lowering, holding, locking and releasing of a planter on a vertical support structure. The planter assembly may include a carriage, to which one or more planters is attached. Guides such as cables, rollers, sliders, bristles, gaskets, carpet and registration pins maintain space between the vertical support and planter assembly and facilitate raising and lowering. A tether guided over a pulley may be retracted or extended by winding it around or unwinding it from a winch, cleat or windlass to causes the planter assembly to rise or descend. When raised to a locking height, the planter assembly causes a mechanical locking mechanism associated with the planter assembly to move into a locking position, securing the planter assembly to the vertical support. Further raising releases the locking mechanism. Attachable items such as banners, flags, hangers and the like may be coupled to the carriage.

Abstract: Planter systems include planters releasably integrated with a support structure primarily by releasable and penetrable engagement that is sufficient to support the planter without requiring conventional attachment devices. Engaging portions of the planters are releasably and penetrably received and concealed by the support structure to provide an integrated appearance. The planter systems optionally include adjustable irrigation systems configured to controllably supply water to the planter and/or surrounding terrain.

Abstract: A planter system includes an adjustable height and angular orientation planter and an optionally adjustable irrigation system for controllably supplying water to the planter and/or surrounding terrain. The planter is configured to controllably travel up and down a vertical support, such as a section of a planter pole or other suitable vertical support structure, from a highest to a lowest position using a pulley and winch, block and tackle, rotating shaft, continuous pulley driven belt, continuous sprocket driven chain, lead screw, ball screw, a ballast, hydraulics, pneumatics, spring or other lifting subsystem. The irrigation system may be configured to supply water to the planter and or to the surrounding terrain. The planter is carried along the pole, allowing it to be controllably rotated at any height along the travel.
