Abstract: Disclosed herein includes a drug delivery system comprising at least one peptide and a targeting ligand for bone fracture and/or for bone healing. Some embodiments include a peptide delivery system comprising at least an acidic, basic, hydrophilic, hydrophobic or neutral peptide linked to an acidic peptide or nonpeptidic polyanion for use in targeting the aforementioned attached peptide to a bone fracture surface. In some embodiments, a conjugated peptide expresses an anabolic function that acts through PTH receptor 1, and various formats of targeting ligands guide the drug to raw hydroxyapatite.

Abstract: A method comprising storing a privilege rule, detecting an instruction to execute an application, and determining whether execution of the application requires an elevated privilege. The example method further comprises identifying, responsive to a determination the execution of the application requires the elevated privilege, one or more attributes of the application, and generating a request for the elevated privilege based on the privilege rule and the one or more attributes of the application. The method further comprises receiving the elevated privilege responsive to an approval of the request for the elevated privilege, and causing the execution of the application with the elevated privilege.

Abstract: A method comprising: storing a plurality of device records, at least one device record including a digital device identifier that identifies at least one digital device in non-persistent communication, a current password associated with the digital device identifier, and a policy identifier that identifies at least one policy indicating when an updated password will be generated for the at least one digital device identified by the digital device identifier. The example method further comprises determining whether at least one condition identified by the at least one policy is satisfied, generating an updated password only if the at least one condition is satisfied, receiving a password update request initiated from a security agent executing on the at least one digital device, and providing the updated password to replace at least one password on the at least one digital device only if the at least one condition is satisfied.

Abstract: In various embodiments, a method comprises scanning a directory structure to generate a scan result comprising a plurality of discovered systems, identifying one or more accounts associated with at least one of the plurality of discovered systems, configuring a security appliance to change one or more old passwords to one or more new passwords for the one or more accounts, and changing, with the configured security appliance, the one or more old passwords to the one or more new passwords.

Abstract: In various embodiments, a method comprises scanning a directory structure to generate a scan result comprising a plurality of discovered systems, identifying one or more accounts associated with at least one of the plurality of discovered systems, configuring a security appliance to change one or more old passwords to one or more new passwords for the one or more accounts, and changing, with the configured security appliance, the one or more old passwords to the one or more new passwords.
