Patent number: 11739948Abstract: A method for calculating the humidity level in a cooking apparatus is disclosed. The method includes heating a food load in a cooking cavity of the cooking apparatus and selectively activating a convection fan in the cooking cavity. The method further includes monitoring a humidity signal detected by a humidity sensing apparatus in response to the activation of the convection fan. As a result of the activation of the convection fan, the method may determine an actual humidity level from a plurality of humidity levels based on a change in the humidity signal.Type: GrantFiled: June 26, 2020Date of Patent: August 29, 2023Assignee: Whirlpool CorporationInventors: Giulio Ghiglieri, Marco Giuliani, Davide Parachini, Cristiano Vito Pastore

Patent number: 10339313Abstract: Aspects of the present disclosure relate to setting up an alternate communication path to a device, resource, file, etc., in order to avoid a potentially infected driver. New drivers may be established as part of the alternate communications path, thereby providing access to a device, resource, etc. using drivers that are known to be clean or, in other words, not infected by a rootkit. In doing so, a rootkit hunter, e.g., antivirus software, antimalware software, etc., may access an infected device, resource, etc. without alerting a rootkit, thereby avoiding activation of the rootkit's defensive mechanisms. In one aspect, an I/O request may be serviced by using the new communications path bypassing any potentially infected drivers while another request may be serviced using a previously established communications path. The responses (e.g., data returned, action performed, etc.) of the requests may then be compared.Type: GrantFiled: July 15, 2014Date of Patent: July 2, 2019Assignee: WEBROOT INC.Inventors: Marco Giuliani, Andrea Allievi

Patent number: 10284591Abstract: In non-limiting examples, anti-exploit systems and methods described herein monitor a memory space of a process for execution of functions. Stack walk processing is executed upon invocation of one of the functions in the monitored memory space. During execution of the stack walk processing, at least one memory check is performed to detect suspicious behavior. An alert of suspicious behavior is triggered when the performing of the memory check detects at least one of: code execution attempted from non-executable memory, identification of an invalid base pointer, identification of an invalid stack return address, attempted execution of a return-oriented programming technique, the base pointer is outside a current thread stack, and a return address is detected as being inside a virtual memory area. If an alert of suspicious behavior is triggered, execution of a payload is prevented for the invoked function.Type: GrantFiled: January 27, 2015Date of Patent: May 7, 2019Assignee: WEBROOT INC.Inventors: Marco Giuliani, Marco Bizzarri, Benedetto Voltattorni, Johannes Mayr

Patent number: 10257224Abstract: Methods and systems for providing forensic visibility into systems and networks are provided. More particularly, a sensor agent may receive events defining an action of a first object acting on a target. The object, the event, and the target are then correlated to at least one originating object such that an audit trail for each individual event is created. A global perspective indicating an age, popularity, a determination as to whether the object may be malware, and IP/URL information associated with the event may then be applied to at least one of the object, the event, the target, and the originating object. A priority may then be determined and assigned to the event based on at least the global perspective. An event line containing event information is then transmitted to an end recipient where the information may be heuristically displayed.Type: GrantFiled: February 20, 2017Date of Patent: April 9, 2019Assignee: Webroot Inc.Inventors: Joseph Jaroch, Jacques Etienne Erasmus, Paul Barnes, Johannes Mayr, Michael Leidesdorff, Marco Giuliani, Christopher Jon Williams, Chad Edward Bacher
