Abstract: An online software platform (OSP) classifies challenges to digital rules into buckets according to respective challenged digital rules that were applied to produce respective challenged resources. The OSP computes respective statistics for the buckets. Each bucket may have a corresponding statistic associated with the bucket based on a current total number of challenges that have been classified into that bucket. The OSP ranks the buckets according to the respective statistics of the buckets. The OSP may correct, based on the ranking of the buckets, the respective challenged stored digital rule of the selected bucket without yet correcting the respective challenged digital rule of at least one of the other buckets. This correction is stored and included in digital rules to be used to produce resources going forward.

Abstract: A wearable system can comprise a display system configured to present virtual content in a three-dimensional space, a user input device configured to receive a user input, and one or more sensors configured to detect a user's pose. The wearable system can support various user interactions with objects in the user's environment based on contextual information. As an example, the wearable system can adjust the size of an aperture of a virtual cone during a cone cast (e.g., with the user's poses) based on the contextual information. As another example, the wearable system can adjust the amount of movement of virtual objects associated with an actuation of the user input device based on the contextual information.

Abstract: The invention provides a sensor for measuring both impedance and ECG waveforms that is configured to be worn around a patient's neck. The sensor features 1) an ECG system that includes an analog ECG circuit, in electrical contact with at least two ECG electrodes, that generates an analog ECG waveform; and 2) an impedance system that includes an analog impedance circuit, in electrical contact with at least two (and typically four) impedance electrodes, that generates an analog impedance waveform. Also included in the neck-worn system are a digital processing system featuring a microprocessor, and an analog-to-digital converter. During a measurement, the digital processing system receives and processes the analog ECG and impedance waveforms to measure physiological information from the patient. Finally, a cable that drapes around the patient's neck connects the ECG system, impedance system, and digital processing system.

Abstract: Systems and methods provide validation of hardware components of an IHS (Information Handling System). An attestation certificate stored to the IHS specifies authenticated instructions for operation of a hardware component of the IHS. This attestation certificate is endorsed by a self-signed root attestation certificate. An identity certificate, also stored to the IHS, specifies an identity of the hardware component and is endorsed using an embedded keypair of the hardware component. The root attestation certificate is validated to ensure it corresponds to the hardware component specified in the identity certificate, where this validation confirms that a public key included in the identity certificate is identical to a public key included in the attestation certificate.

Abstract: The invention provides a body-worn system that continuously measures pulse oximetry and blood pressure, along with motion, posture, and activity level, from an ambulatory patient. The system features an oximetry probe that comfortably clips to the base of the patient's thumb, thereby freeing up their fingers for conventional activities in a hospital, such as reading and eating. The probe secures to the thumb and measures time-dependent signals corresponding to LEDs operating near 660 and 905 nm. Analog versions of these signals pass through a low-profile cable to a wrist-worn transceiver that encloses a processing unit. Also within the wrist-worn transceiver is an accelerometer, a wireless system that sends information through a network to a remote receiver, e.g. a computer located in a central nursing station.

Abstract: In general, embodiments of the invention relate to implementing a secure boot process in information handling systems that supports both an external root of trust (eRoT) and an internal root of trust (RoT). Further, embodiments of the invention relate to binding a management controller to a specific chassis and, in the case where the eRoT is used, to an eRoT. When the management controller and the chassis are provisioned according to one or more embodiments of the invention, security checks may be performed by management controller executing an initial program loader (IPL) using the aforementioned bindings. If the bindings are not present or do not match, then the boot process halts and the user is unable to use the information handling system.

Abstract: Systems and methods are provided for customer validation of hardware of an IHS (Information Handling System). During factory provisioning of the IHS, a signed inventory certificate is uploaded to the IHS that identifies factory installed components of the IHS. Upon deployment of the IHS, a customer issues a request for hardware validation, such as via an API exposed by a trusted component of the IHS. The IHS generates a certificate signing request (CSR) that specifies factory-installed hardware components of the IHS. The CSR is transmitted to the customer for use in generating an inventory certificate signed by a certificate authority that is selected by the customer. The customer's signed inventory certificate is stored to the IHS and used in validating some or all of the hardware of the IHS by comparing detected hardware components of the IHS against the inventory specified in the inventory certificate received from the customer.

Abstract: Systems and procedures are provided for validating an IHS (Information Handling System) as operating using only factory-provisioned I/O ports. During factory provisioning of the IHS, a signed inventory certificate that includes an inventory of factory-provisioned I/O ports of the IHS is uploaded to the IHS. Upon delivery and initialization of the IHS, the inventory certificate is retrieved by a pre-boot validation process. An inventory of detected I/O ports of the IHS is then collected. The validation process compares the collected inventory of detected I/O ports against the inventory of factory-provisioned I/O ports from the inventory certificate in order to validate the IHS is operating using only factory-provisioned I/O ports. Through embodiments, any I/O ports of the IHS other than the I/O ports validated as factory-provisioned are not usable by any software or hardware of the IHS.

Abstract: Systems and procedures are provided for importing cryptographic credentials of a customer to an IHS (Information Handling System). During factory provisioning of the IHS, a signed inventory certificate is uploaded to the IHS that includes an encrypted access code for unlocking the IHS and also includes encrypted credentials provided by the customer. Upon delivery and initialization of the IHS, the inventory certificate is retrieved by a pre-boot validation process. A cryptographic challenge is issued that presents the encrypted access code. Further initialization of the IHS is halted until a response to the challenge is received from the customer that provides the decrypted access code. When the decrypted access code is received, further initialization of the IHS is enabled and the encrypted credentials from the inventory certificate are imported to the IHS, thus allowing the customer to establish an independent root of trusted components using the IHS.

Abstract: Systems and procedures are provided for tracking hardware components of an IHS (Information Handling System). During factory provisioning of an IHS, an inventory certificate to the IHS is stored to the IHS that includes an inventory identifying factory-installed hardware components of the IHS. Also during the factory provisioning, a record is stored in a component datastore of the factory-installed hardware specified in the inventory certificate. Upon initialization of the delivered IHS, a pre-boot validation environment is initialized on the IHS and the stored inventory certificate is retrieved and used to validate the detected hardware components of the IHS. The results of the validation are then reported to a component datastore, where they are used to identify any transfer of a factory-installed hardware component. The factory datastore is updated in subsequent validations to reflect any detected modifications to the IHS in tracking genuine components.
