  • Publication number: 20180124047
    Abstract: Remote identity proofing is the process of uniquely verifying an individual who is a party to an online transaction. This presents an enormous challenge to the secure delivery of government services as well as online commerce. The degree of difficulty is compounded when attempting to remotely authenticate for the first time a previously unknown individual. The High Assurance Remote Identity Proofing method introduces a holistic approach to solving this problem. A rich collection of identity data, when evaluated by multiple verification methods, can be aggregated to an identity assurance score, which is a measure of the uniqueness and authenticity of a claimed identity and ultimately provides a high assurance that someone attempting to remotely verify his or her identity is who he or she claims to be.

  • Publication number: 20180035110
    Abstract: A testing rack for infrared cable boxes has a bottom panel and a series of opposing top arms. The bottom panel and the top arms are spaced apart by a substantially planar back panel, and each of the top arms is configured to deflect relative to the back panel to allow a cable box to be installed and removed. An emitter bar on the back panel includes a channel and a series of slots, each corresponding to one of the top arms. The slots are each located next to an IR emitter port formed in the back panel, and are sized to accommodate an IR emitter cable. The channel is sized to hold a plurality of IR emitters such that each IR emitter is visible to a cable box through an IR emitter port with the IR emitter cable extending through a slot.
