Abstract: Systems and methods for communicating, storing, and/or analyzing data that may include genomic data are described herein. In various embodiments, unaligned genomic sequence read data and/or portions thereof may be stored and/or communicated as a list of variants relative to a particular reference associated with a reference motif identified in the genomic sequence read data. In further embodiments, quality score information associated with a genomic dataset may be analyzed and and/or communicated as quality score parameter information. Additional embodiments may facilitate relatively efficient analysis of unaligned genomic sequence read data using metadata associated with reference motifs identified in the unaligned genomic sequence read data.

Abstract: This disclosure relates to, among other things, key generation systems and methods. Certain embodiments disclosed herein provide for generation of cryptographic keys based on one or more defined key generation rules. Key generation consistent with various aspects of the disclosed embodiments may increase the difficultly and/or cost of producing public keys and, by extension, discourage the generation of fake keys used in connection with a key flooding attack. In certain embodiments, generated keys and/or associated key generation rules may depend, at least in part, on associated binding data.

Abstract: The disclosure relates to, among other things, systems and methods for facilitating the verification of the integrity of digital content. Embodiments of the disclosed systems and methods may provide mechanisms for generating a secure and unambiguous record of the creation and/or modification of digital content and/or other media associated with events. Further embodiments may provide for a ledger configured to capture a record of creation and/or modification actions performed in connection with digital content.

Abstract: The disclosure relates to, among other things, systems and methods for mitigating the risks of errors, benign or otherwise, occurring within trusted ledgers and/or for validating the integrity of information provided by operators of trusted ledgers. Consistent with embodiments disclosed herein, trusted agents, which may comprise proxy agents and/or test agents, may be employed to examine ledgers and/or derivatives, which may be meshed with other ledgers, to ensure the integrity of information provided by ledger operators. Ledger meshing techniques are described to link ledgers in a manner that improves the ability to verify ledger entries and/or recover from data faults. Further embodiments provide for tagging processes may be performed to give semantic meaning to hashes included in trusted ledgers.

Abstract: The present disclosure relates to systems and methods for facilitating trusted handling of genomic and/or other sensitive information. Certain embodiments may use a virtualized execution environment to execute code and/or programs that wish to access and/or otherwise use genomic and/or other sensitive information. In some embodiments, data requests from the code and/or programs may be routed through a transparent data access proxy configured to transform requests and/or associated responses to protect the integrity of the genomic and/or other sensitive information.

Abstract: This disclosure relates to systems and methods for managing protected electronic content that employ relatively efficient messaging schemes. Rights management architectures are described that may, among other things, provide end-to-end protection of content keys from their point of origination at a content creator and/or content service to end user devices. Certain embodiments may further provide for message protocols where fewer messages are sent in connection with a protected content license request process, thereby reducing latency associated with license request and provisioning processes.

Abstract: The disclosure relates to, among other things, systems and methods for augmenting and/or otherwise supplementing content using watermarks. Consistent with embodiments disclosed herein, a user device such as a smartphone may be used to retrieve watermark information encoded in a watermark. The watermark information may comprise content that supplements an associated content item, link and/or location information that may be used to retrieve supplemental content, and/or the like. In some embodiments, the watermark information may comprise cryptographic and/or other access token information used to decrypt and/or otherwise access supplemental content.

Abstract: This disclosure relates to systems and methods for verifying the presentation of content to a target audience using generated metrics indicative of a likelihood that the content was presented to actual human individuals within the target audience. In some instances, such a metric may be associated with a probability model estimating that a user (e.g., a user of a device) is human and not a bot and/or other automated service. Metrics consistent with aspects of the disclosed embodiments may be generated based, at least in part, on user information received from a user and/or associated devices and/or associated services.

Abstract: This disclosure relates to, among other things, systems and methods for managing and/or verifying the integrity and/or provenance of digital content and/or media.

Trusted services that examine captured information recorded in trusted databases and/or ledgers and generate derivative information relating to associated content and/or media. When viewing content, trusted content applications may query the trusted service for derivative information relating to the content and/or media, providing users with an indication of the derivative information in connection with content and/or media playback.
