Abstract: This is directed to connecting two or more elements using an intermediate element constructed from a material that changes between states. An electronic device can include one or more components constructed by connecting several elements. To provide a connection having a reduced or small size or cross-section and construct a component having high tolerances, a material can be provided in a first state in which it flows between the elements before changing to a second state in which it adheres to the elements and provides a structurally sound connection. For example, a plastic can be molded between the elements. As another example, a composite material can be brazed between the elements. In some cases, internal surfaces of the elements can include one or more features for enhancing a bond between the elements and the material providing the interface between the elements.

Abstract: Provided is an Adaptive Network Security System (“ANSS”) that receives a first set of network data, detects commonality in a set of parameters within the first set of network data using an unsupervised machine learning technique, and models an expected behavior based on the commonality in the set of parameters. The ANSS may determine a threat risk associated with a second set of network data based on an amount of deviation between the set of parameters from the second plurality of network data and the expected behavior, and may perform a particular action from different actions against the second set of network data in response to the set of parameters from the second set of network data deviating from the expected behavior and the threat risk.
