  • Publication number: 20230368655
    Abstract: Apparatus and method for determining the validity of an infrared signal of a remote-control device. An infrared signal comprising pulses representing data corresponding to a function of a controllable target device is received from a remote-control device. The received infrared signal is passed through a capacitor of the apparatus such that, for each pulse of the infrared signal, the capacitor is charged and subsequently discharged. The capacitor discharge time associated with each pulse of the infrared signal is measured by a processor of the apparatus to establish a discharge sequence. The processor of the apparatus compares the established discharge sequence with a plurality of pre-determined valid discharge patterns and determine the validity of the received infrared signal based on the outcome of the comparison of the established discharge sequence with the plurality of pre-determined discharge patterns.

  • Patent number: 10423793
    Abstract: Example embodiments disclosed herein relate to an approach for installing a runtime agent during a security test. A security test is initiated or performed on an application under test executing on a server. An application vulnerability associated with the application under test is determined. The application vulnerability is exploited to install the runtime agent on the server. The security test is continued using the runtime agent to receive additional information about the application under test.

  • Publication number: 20170185784
    Abstract: Example embodiments disclosed herein relate to generating a point-wise protection based capable of being implemented using a runtime agent. Security information including line of code information associated with possible vulnerabilities are processed to determine vulnerability solution recommendations. A vulnerability solution recommendation is presented. The point-wise protection is generated based on a selection input for the vulnerability solution recommendation, where the point-wise protection is capable of being implemented using a runtime agent.

  • Patent number: 9558355
    Abstract: Example embodiments disclosed herein relate to generating a scanning strategy based on a dynamic taint module. A dynamic taint module associated with an application is caused to be initiated for a crawling phase of a security test. A report is received from the dynamic taint module. The dynamic taint module is restricted. The scanning strategy is based on the report.

  • Patent number: 9438617
    Abstract: Example embodiments disclosed herein relate to real-time modification of an application under test (AUT). A security rest is performed on the AUT. A real-time modifier determines that a portion of a function to be executed by the AUT is unsafe. The real-time modifier modifies execution of the AUT to not execute the portion.

  • Publication number: 20070084064
    Abstract: A foldable utensil set including a bowl, dish, cup and spoon each foldable from a prescored plastic sheet which is semitransparent to allow angled folds at the corner to be visible as an aesthetic feature. The rims of the bowl and cup have portions at two different levels to prevent liquid from reaching the level of the mating snaps used to secure the bowl and cup in the folded condition. The spoon is folded from a flat sheet having two contiguous sections scored so as to form a handle and bowl portion when folded. The dish has side edges stiffened with a fold over section which also holds the folds in position. Oval shaped scoring is provided as an aesthetic feature and to aid in forming corners on the utensils when being folded.
