Abstract: State of the art authentication mechanisms have limitations when used by Basic Emergent User (BEU). Embodiments herein provide method and system for recognition based multi-skill-multi-sensory passwords with dynamic identification of sensor combination based on end user skill, specifically for the BEU. The method disclosed generates user profile using a task-based technique to determine skill and capability of the user associated with each of a plurality of sensory categories used for generating a multi-skill-multi-sensory password. Each of the plurality of sensory categories are graded is descending order based on user's skill and capability and user is offered to select each password entry from a particular sensor category in accordance with the identified grade in each iteration. Thus, the entropy of password generation in the context of user is split among the sensor categories.

Abstract: Systems/techniques that facilitate self-supervised deblurring are provided. In various embodiments, a system can access an input image generated by an imaging device. In various aspects, the system can train, in a self-supervised manner based on a point spread function of the imaging device, a machine learning model to deblur the input image. More specifically, the system can append to the model one or more non-trainable convolution layers having a blur kernel that is based on the point spread function of the imaging device. In various aspects, the system can feed the input image to the model, the model can generate a first output image based on the input image, the one or more non-trainable convolution layers can generate a second output image by convolving the first output image with the blur kernel, and the system can update parameters of the model based on a difference between the input image and the second output image.

Abstract: Provided herein are methods for the efficient in vitro differentiation of somatic cell-derived pluripotent stem cells to hematopoietic precursor cells, and the further differentiation of the hematopoietic precursor cells into immune cells of various myeloid or lymphoid lineages, particularly T cells, NK cells, and dendritic cells. The pluripotent cells may be maintained and differentiated under defined conditions; thus, the use of mouse feeder cells or serum is not required in certain embodiments for the differentiation of the hematopoietic precursor cells.

Abstract: Solutions for rapid ransomware detection and recovery include: receiving a first set of in-memory changed data blocks; identifying, within the first set of in-memory changed data blocks, a second set of in-memory changed data blocks addressed for storage within a file index for a virtual machine (VM) disk; determining, relative to a change history of the file index, an anomalous condition; based on at least determining the anomalous condition, identifying a third set of blocks within the file index that are changed between two versions of the VM disk; determining that changes in the third set of blocks indicate ransomware; and based on at least determining that changes in the third set of blocks indicate ransomware, generating an alert. Machine learning (ML) models may perform anomaly/ransomware detection. Remediation activities may include disk restoration storing the VM memory.

Abstract: Zero trust and micro-segmentation techniques may be collectively used to enhance network security. To establish, refine, and enforce a zero-trust least-privileged policy, the network may be segmented to put each device of the network into a respective network of one, which forces all network traffic to pass through a zero-trust gatekeeper. The gatekeeper may then monitor and analyze the traffic to establish, refine, and enforce the zero-trust least-privileged policy, which reduces network access to only a limited set of network actions and/or paths. Using the gatekeeper, network traffic may be monitored to progressively establish the policy as well as to continually refine the policy. Recommended actions may be determined based on the analysis of the monitored network traffic and provided to the user to allow user feedback on the communication rules of zero-trust policy.

Abstract: An authentication platform for authenticating an online user is provided. The authentication platform includes a memory device and at least one processor coupled to the memory device. The at least one processor is programmed to generate an authentication model using historical data. The at least one processor is further configured to receive, from a merchant computing device, an authentication request message for a current transaction, the authentication request message including consumer identity data for the current transaction and extract the consumer identity data from the authentication request message. The at least one processor is further configured to generate, based on the extracted consumer identity data, identity insight result data using the authentication model, inject the identity insight result data into an authorization request message to generate an enhanced authorization request message, and transmit the enhanced authorization request message to an issuer computing device.
