Abstract: Aspects of the disclosure relate to preventing unauthorized access to secured information systems using advanced pre-authentication techniques. A computing platform may receive, from a local traffic manager, a first enriched access request associated with a first remote computing device. Then, the computing platform may apply a pre-authentication classification model to the first enriched access request associated with the first remote computing device. Thereafter, the computing platform may determine that the first enriched access request associated with the first remote computing device is likely malicious. Then, the computing platform may generate one or more first pre-authentication response commands directing client portal server infrastructure to process the first enriched access request associated with the first remote computing device as a malicious request.

Abstract: The present subject matter relates methods and systems for operation of an HVAC system including a heat pump and a secondary energy source (electric or gas) where a utility's demand response server may issue demand response event instructions. Upon receipt of a demand response event instruction as set point for controlling the HVAC system may be changed and, upon expiration of the demand response event, the HVAC system is controlled so that operation of its secondary energy source is inhibited until recovery of the system to its user established set point is obtained.

Abstract: A method for servicing a refrigeration system is disclosed. The refrigeration system contains a refrigerant and has a compressor, a high-side section and a low-side section. The method includes the steps of releasing the refrigerant from the refrigeration system from the high-side section; collecting the released refrigerant with a recovery container containing a refrigerant adsorptive substance; charging the refrigeration system with inert gas from the low-side section; and discharging the inert gas from the refrigeration system from the high-side section.
