  • Publication number: 20230283634
    Abstract: A computer-implemented method, a computer system and a computer program product use artificial intelligence (AI) to extract information from a phisher. The method may include identifying a malicious email on a server. The malicious email comprises an attempt by the phisher to compromise a user. The method may also include generating an automated conversational agent that poses as the user. The method may further include transmitting a message to the phisher by the automated conversational agent. The message indicates that the user has been compromised. In addition, the method may include receiving a response from the phisher. Lastly, the method may include determining an intent of the phisher based on the response.

  • Patent number: 11642843
    Abstract: A materials kit for three-dimensional (3D) printing can include a powder bed material comprising thermoplastic polyurethane particles and a fusing agent including a radiation absorber to selectively apply to the powder bed material. The thermoplastic polyurethane particles can have an average particle size from about 20 ?m to about 120 ?m and a melting temperature of from about 100° C. to about 250° C., wherein the thermoplastic polyurethane particles include polyurethane polymer strands having an average of about 10 wt % to about 30 wt % hard segments based on a total weight of the thermoplastic polyurethane particles. The hard segments can include a symmetrical aliphatic diisocyanate and a symmetrical aliphatic chain extender that are polymerized into the thermoplastic polyurethane particles.
