Abstract: A system for identifying complete account identifiers from partial account identifiers is provided. The system includes an account identification computing device including at least one processor and a memory device in communication with the at least one processor. The processor is configured to receive transaction data including unique merchant identifiers, build a merchant table using the transaction data, and receive a list including partial account identifiers. The processor is further configured to determine, for each unique merchant identifier, a number of candidate account identifiers and calculate at least one metric based on the number of candidate account identifiers. The processor is further configured to identify a source unique merchant identifier and match at least one candidate account identifier to a complete account identifier by matching one of the partial account identifiers to the at least one candidate account identifier.

Abstract: Devices and methods for measuring a concentration of a target analyte in a biological fluid in vivo are provided herein. In some examples, a device includes an indwelling sensor and sensor electronics. The sensor may include a substrate; a first electrode disposed on the substrate; an ionophore disposed on the substrate to selectively transport the target ion to or within the first electrode; and a second electrode disposed on the substrate. The sensor electronics is configured to generate a signal corresponding to an electromotive force which is at least partially based on a potential difference that is generated between the first electrode and the second electrode responsive to the ionophore transporting the target ion to the first electrode.

Abstract: According to certain non-limiting embodiments disclosed herein, the functionality of a server is extended with a mechanism for identifying connections with clients that have exhibited attack characteristics (for example, characteristics indicating a DoS attack), and for transitioning internal ownership of those connections such that server resources consumed by the connection are reduced, while keeping the connection open. The connection thus moves from a state of relatively high resource use to a state of relatively low server resource use. According to certain non-limiting embodiments disclosed herein, the functionality of a server is extended by enabling the server to determine that any of a client and a connection exhibits one or more attack characteristics (e.g., based on at least one of client attributes, connection attributes, and client behavior during the connection, or otherwise). As a result of the determination, the server changes its treatment of the connection.

The connection thus moves from a state of relatively high resource use to a state of relatively low server resource use, and the server is able to free resources such as memory and processing cycles previously allocated to the connection. In some cases, the server maintains the connection for at least some time and uses it to keep the client occupied so that it cannot launch—or has fewer resources to launch—further attacks, and possibly to gather information about the attacking client.
