Abstract: Disclosed herein is a trusted platform module (TPM) for authenticating a secure system, the TPM including: one or more registers to automatically generate and maintain hash values indicating current state values of the TPM, secure memory to store a key in association with a secure system, and a processor in network communication with the registers and the secure memory. During a secure boot up process, the processor can perform operations including: deriving the key for the secure system from the hash values that are automatically generated by the one or more registers, calculating a Hash-based Message Authentication Code (HMAC) value using the key, generating, based on the HMAC value, an authentication login token for the secure system, and advancing the hash values that are maintained by the one or more registers from their initial state during the secure boot up process.

Abstract: A discontinuous wall magnet having an opening or channel is provided. A bead separation magnet having a discontinuous or segmented wall is also provided. The segmented wall causes bead formation to form in a segmented or gapped ring to allow for easier manual pipetting. Also provided are systems and kits having the inventive magnets. Methods of purifying a macromolecule using the inventive magnets are also provided.

Abstract: The disclosed technology provides for managing, authenticating, and authorizing transactions utilizing multi-party-computation (“MPC”) across a network. A method includes receiving, by a server, policy data defining a transaction signing policy, receiving, from an initiator node, a transaction request, in response to receiving the transaction request: (i) determining, based on the transaction signing policy, a threshold number of virtual nodes in a cloud environment that are included in a transaction signing group and that are required to authorize the transaction request, and (ii) sending, to each of the virtual nodes, an authorization request to authorize the transaction request, receiving, from at least a subset of the virtual nodes, authorization data indicating that the transaction request has been authorized, and returning, to a hardware security module (HSM), a transaction payload based on processing the authorization data.

Abstract: The present invention relates to a magnet plate for use in isolating a macromolecule from a mixture in a vessel, wherein the magnet plate has a reversible compression lock. The reversible compression lock engages the top plate and the base plate, wherein when in a locked position, the top plate is fixed and cannot move up and down, along the axis of the support or corner post and when in an unlocked position, the top plate is movable up and down along the axis of the support.

Abstract: A solid-core ring-magnet having one or more cavities is provided. The magnet can have an overall cylindrical shape or a rectangular-prism shape. In either case, a portion of cavity walls of the magnet are ring shaped, causing the magnetic field lines to emanate from the magnet in the shape of a ring. The diameter of the ring shaped cavities can be constant throughout, constant through a portion of the cavity, variant throughout, or variant through a portion of the cavity. The cavities open to the end of the magnet, and terminate toward the core of the magnet. Also provided are systems and kits having solid-core ring-magnets. Methods of purifying a macromolecule using the solid-core ring-magnets are also provided.

Abstract: A solid-core ring-magnet having one or more cavities is provided. The magnet can have an overall cylindrical shape or a rectangular-prism shape. In either case, a portion of cavity walls of the magnet are ring shaped, causing the magnetic field lines to emanate from the magnet so that the bead formation is in the shape of a ring. A bead separation magnet having a discontinuous or segmented cavity wall is also provided. The segmented cavity wall causes bead formation to form in a segmented or gapped ring to allow for easier manual pipetting. Also provided are systems and kits having the inventive magnets. Methods of purifying a macromolecule using the inventive magnets are also provided.
