Abstract: Simulating user interactions during dynamic analysis of a sample is disclosed. A sample is received for analysis. Prior to execution of the sample, a baseline screenshot of a system folder is generated by accessing frame buffer data stored on a graphics card. The sample is caused to execute, at least in part using one or more hypervisor instructions to move a pointing device to an icon associated with the sample. A current screenshot of the system folder is generated by accessing current frame buffer data stored on the graphics card.

Abstract: A spacer for vehicle panels can be shaped such that it absorbs a substantial portion of a first load, the first load applied in a first direction substantially perpendicular to the exterior panel; controllably deforms along a second direction when a second load is applied substantially along the second direction; wherein the second direction is other than the first direction. The spacer need not deform along the second direction when the first load is applied. The spacer can have a shaped member having a channel extending through the spacer perpendicular from the exterior panel, such that the spacer can controllably deform along a width of the channel.

Abstract: Anchor brackets/tethers may be used to reinforce a vehicle's resin rear door without substantially increasing the mass of the resin rear door. Such anchor brackets hold an interior trim panel(s) in place, and keep the interior trim panel(s) connected to the door structure or portion(s) thereof. The interior trim panel(s) can act as a protective interior shield that eliminates any exposure of the interior cabin/passenger compartment from any outer (and/or interior) door panel cracks/gaps that may be created during an adverse event. Moreover, conventional interior trim panels may, during a collision, break apart, the broken pieces becoming potentially dangerous projectiles. By being attached to the door structure and/or door componentry, the chance that the interior trim panel (or portions thereof) becoming a projectile is negated or at least lessened.

Abstract: In an example, a compliant shaft enclosure support system for coupling to a shaft enclosure surrounding a shaft includes a bar having a first member slidably coupled to a second member. The bar is oriented along the pitch axis of the shaft. A first bar end of the bar is rotatably connected, around the roll axis and pitch axis of the shaft, to the shaft enclosure at a first connection. A second bar end of the bar is rotatably connected, around the roll axis and pitch axis, to the structure at a second connection. A link is rotatably connected, around the roll axis, at a first link end to the bar, at an intermediate location spaced from the first and second bar ends. The link is rotatably connected, around the pitch axis, at a second link end to the shaft enclosure at a third connection spaced from the first connection.

Abstract: An information security system that includes a data control engine configured to receive a data request identifying a first reference tag that is associated with a data file. The data control engine is further configured to identify a first set of encrypted data blocks that are linked with the reference tag and location information for the first set of encrypted data blocks from a data information table. The data control engine is further configured to extract the first set of data blocks from a memory based on the location information. The data control engine is further configured to identify access keys associated with the first set of encrypted data blocks from the data information table and to decrypt the first set of encrypted data blocks using the identified access keys. The data control engine is further configured to reconstruct the data file using the decrypted first set of data blocks.

The virtual storage appliance template file may be duplicated to generate a plurality of virtual storage appliance configuration files. A plurality of virtual storage appliance nodes may be deployed, via a hypervisor, with the plurality of virtual storage appliance node configuration files. Each of the plurality of virtual storage appliance node configuration files may be configured for a respective virtual storage appliance node of the plurality of virtual storage appliance nodes.

Abstract: A method of content production includes generating a survey of a performance area that includes a point cloud representing a first physical object, in a survey graph hierarchy, constraining the point cloud and a taking camera coordinate system as child nodes of an origin of a survey coordinate system, obtaining virtual content including a first virtual object that corresponds to the first physical object, applying a transformation to the origin of the survey coordinate system so that at least a portion of the point cloud that represents the first physical object is substantially aligned with a portion of the virtual content that represents the first virtual object, displaying the first virtual object on one or more displays from a perspective of the taking camera, capturing, using the taking camera, one or more images of the performance area, and generating content based on the one or more images.

Abstract: Techniques are disclosed relating to biometric authentication, e.g., facial recognition. In some embodiments, a device is configured to verify that image data from a camera unit exhibits a pseudo-random sequence of image capture modes and/or a probing pattern of illumination points (e.g., from lasers in a depth capture mode) before authenticating a user based on recognizing a face in the image data. In some embodiments, a secure circuit may control verification of the sequence and/or the probing pattern. In some embodiments, the secure circuit may verify frame numbers, signatures, and/or nonce values for captured image information. In some embodiments, a device may implement one or more lockout procedures in response to biometric authentication failures. The disclosed techniques may reduce or eliminate the effectiveness of spoofing and/or replay attacks, in some embodiments.

Abstract: An information security system that includes an information security engine configured to detect an attack by a malicious software element in a network. The information security engine is further configured to transfer the malicious software element from the network to the emulated network in response to detecting an attack. The information security engine is further configured to select defense strategies for restricting communications using different port configurations and to implement each defense strategy within the emulated network. The information security engine is further configured to execute a duplicate of the malicious software element in the emulated network and to determine a performance level for each of the defense strategies against the duplicate of the malicious software element. The information security engine is further configured to select a defense strategy with a highest performance level and to implement the selected defense strategy within the network.

Abstract: One embodiment of the present invention provides a system that facilitates reducing static power consumption of a processor. During operation, the system receives a signal indicating that instruction execution within the processor is to be temporarily halted. In response to this signal, the system halts an instruction-processing portion of the processor, and reduces the voltage supplied to the instruction-processing portion of the processor. Full voltage is maintained to a remaining portion of the processor, so that the remaining portion of the processor can continue to operate while the instruction-processing portion of the processor is in reduced power mode.
