Abstract: A Honeypot Adaptive Security (HAS) system is described that determines whether a pre-loaded partner or third-party (PP-TP) application executed on a client device has gained over-privileged access to confidential client or network (CCN) data, or over-privileged use of client account features or information provided by a telecommunications service provider. The HAS system may selectively generate and deploy a policy solution or transmit an alert to address instances of over-privileged access or over-privileged use. The HAS system may retrieve client data associated with a PP-TP application executed on the client device, and further develop a PP-TP application data model to determine a probability of the PP-TP application gaining over-privileged access to CCN data or over-privileged use of client account features on a client device.

Abstract: This disclosure describes techniques for capturing radio frequency (RF) signal over the air, processing spectrum power data, and uploading data to a central data repository for analysis and reporting. Captured RF signals are filtered and amplified via a front-end module of a probe that includes a filter and a low noise amplifier (LNA). Output signals can be decoded into digital TV metadata and image captures via a TV tuner and spectrum power, and then analyzed via a software defined radio (SDR). Digital TV metadata and images, as well as SDR data, can be uploaded and collected at a server. The server processes collected spectrum data from SDR into spectrum reports. The server can also analyze collected digital TV metadata to identify with increased accuracy RF sources originating from transmitting TV facilities.

Abstract: Techniques for enforcing data security in a cleanroom data processing environment are described herein. In one or more embodiments, a virtual private cloud environment stores a first set of data provided by a first user account and a second set of data provided by a second user account, where the first user account is associated with a first set of one or more security credentials and the second user account is associated with a second set of security credentials and where the first user account is prevented from accessing at least the second set of data and the second user account is prevented from accessing at least the first set of data. In response to receiving, from the first user account or the second user account, a request to destroy the virtual private cloud environment, at least the first set of data and the second set of data are deleted.

Abstract: Techniques for providing a virtual cleanroom data processing environment are described herein. In one or more embodiments, a virtual private cloud environment is configured to prevent data from being sent to network locations external to the virtual private cloud environment. One or more computing resources deployed within the virtual private cloud environment receives, from a first source external to the virtual private cloud environment, a first set of data that is associated with a first user account. A set of one or more software components, received from a second source, are also deployed within the virtual private cloud environment. Once deployed, the set of software components generates, based at least in part on the first set of data, a set of output data. The first set of data is continuously prevented from being sent to network locations external to the virtual private cloud environment.

Abstract: A voice user interface (VUI) may be deployed for accessing data that are stored in databases of a telecommunications network. A voice command received at a voice interface device connected to a telecommunications network may be converted into a persistent data representation via a speech interpretation engine. The persistent data representation is sent to an intent mapping service that maps persistent data representations to intermediate command representations. In turn, a command interpreter of the telecommunications network may receive the intermediate command representation from the intent mapping service. The command interpreter may translate the intermediate command representation into a database function command via a command interpreter of the telecommunications network.

Abstract: A voice user interface (VUI) may be deployed for controlling network components and devices of a telecommunications network. A voice command received at a voice interface device connected to a telecommunications network may be converted into a persistent data representation via a speech interpretation engine. The persistent data representation is sent to an intent mapping service that maps persistent data representations to intermediate command representations. In turn, a command interpreter of the telecommunications network may receive the intermediate command representation from the intent mapping service. The command interpreter may translate the intermediate command representation into an action command for performing a task with respect to network components or devices of the telecommunications network. The action command may be executed via a controller interface of the telecommunications network with respect to the network components or the devices of the telecommunication network.

Abstract: The present invention provides compositions (e.g., nanoparticles) comprising a conjugated polyethyleneimine (PEI) polymer (a “conjugated lipomer”), or a pharmaceutically acceptable salt thereof, and a lipid-PEG conjugate, wherein the conjugated lipomer of Formula (I) contains one or more groups of the formula (iii). Compositions of the invention are useful for the delivery of active agents, for example, for the treatment of disease.

Abstract: The present invention includes a system and method for defending against unwanted observations of the information conveyed by electronic devices. The system allows users to access sensitive information in public without the fear of visual or other observational leaks. The present invention intercepts sensitive data elements before they are conveyed to a user and replaces the sensitive data with non-sensitive information referred to as aliases. In addition, the system provides a means of computing with sensitive data in a non-observable way. All of this is accomplished while maintaining full functionality and legacy compatibility across applications.

The control system may further include a controller configured to control operation of the packaging material dispenser based at least in part on the signal.

Abstract: Systems and methods for remotely resetting networked devices is disclosed. The system can comprise a primary network connection and a secondary network connection to provide communications redundancy. The system can also include physical connections between networked devices to enable devices to be reset regardless of the type of error. The method can include monitoring one or more parameters of a device to determine what type of error is occurring and what action to take. The system can enable a first computer (or other electronic device) to restart applications, adapters, and services on a second computer (or other electronic device). The system can also enable the first computer to reset or restart the second computer. The system can enable networked computers to monitor and restore operation to other computers on the same network without human intervention.
