Abstract: Examples of the present disclosure describe systems and methods for peer device protection. Peer device protection enables a first device comprising a digital security agent to remedy security issues on (or associated with) a set of devices visible to the first device. In aspects, a first device comprising a digital security agent may identify a set of devices visible to the first device. The first device may monitor the set of devices to collect data, such as types of communications and data points of interest. The digital security agent may apply threat detection to the collected data to identify anomalous network behavior. When anomalous network behavior is detected, the first device may cause an indicator of compromise (IOC) to be generated. Based on the IOC, the first device may facilitate remediation of the anomalous network behavior and/or apply security to one or more devices in the set of devices.

Abstract: Compositions may include a corrosion inhibitor including a heterocyclic diamine prepared from the reaction of an alkyl diamine and an aldehyde, wherein the alkyl diamine has the general formula: R4NH(CH2)nNHR5, where n is an integer between 3 and 6, and R4 and R5 are independently hydrogen or a C2-C30 saturated or unsaturated hydrocarbon radical. Methods may include contacting a metal surface with a corrosion inhibitor composition, wherein the corrosion inhibitor includes a heterocyclic diamine corrosion inhibitor from the reaction of an alkyl diamine and an aldehyde, wherein the alkyl diamine has the general formula: R4NH(CH2)nNHR5, where n is an integer between 3 and 6, and R4 and R5 are independently hydrogen or a C2-C30 saturated or unsaturated hydrocarbon radical.

Abstract: The following disclosure provides a system that filters and batches changes to improve communication between an application and an add-in. In some embodiments, the application batches a threshold number of changes made to a section of content. Using a threshold regulates the rate of updates to the add-in. In some embodiments, changes can be filtered based on the type of change (e.g. text changes, style changes, etc.) or the type of input that caused the change (e.g. keyboard input, cut and paste command, etc.). Filtering changes can reduce traffic between the application and the add-in, preventing the add-in from being overwhelmed and improving application responsiveness.

Abstract: Trellis arrangements are used for supporting fruit-bearing plants as they grow. A problem in some orchards or the like is that it can be difficult to install trellis posts in the ground, in particular when the posts are relatively long and difficult to place at the correct angle. The invention discloses a trellis comprising a plurality of supports, each support comprising a shaft embedded in a ground, and at least one connector arm extending upwards at an acute angle with respect to the ground. The trellis is such that for each support, a post is sleeve-fitted to the connector arm so that the post extends upwards at an acute angle but does not touch the ground; the upwardly extending posts collectively support elevated lines running between the posts; and the lines support branches of a fruit bearing plant growing along the lines.
