  • Publication number: 20240073200
    Abstract: A system for communicating email messages using tokens receives a request to send an email message to a receiver. The email message is associated with a sender's email address. The system determines whether the sender's email address is associated with a token from a plurality of tokens stored in a token-email address mapping table. The system generates a particular token for the sender's email address in response to determining that the sender's email address is not associated with a token, where the particular token uniquely identifies the sender's email address. The system sends the email message using the particular token instead of the sender's email address, such that the sender's email address remains anonymous from the perspective of the receiver.

  • Publication number: 20240022415
    Abstract: The invention receives an indication that a resource has been restored using a first resource portion and retrieves from a metadata layer of a first NFT associated with the resource portion, a value of the first resource portion; retrieves a second NFT associated with the resource; and links the first NFT associated with the first resource portion with the second NFT associated with the resource by recording such link at least in a metadata layer associated with the second NFT on a distributed ledger. The system retrieves from a metadata layer of the second NFT, a value of the resource and determines, using an NFT valuation engine, a new value of the resource, wherein the new value for the resource is based on at least a value of the first resource portion. The system records the new value in a metadata layer associated with the second NFT.

  • Publication number: 20240022543
    Abstract: Systems, computer program products, and methods are described herein for establishing secure communication channels for peripheral hardware devices. The present invention is configured to receive, via a computing device system comprising at least one peripheral hardware device, a request to begin a virtual interaction between the computing device system and a virtual network system configured to establish connections and transmit information across or between systems. The invention may then establish the virtual interaction via a first communication channel and then receive a request to establish a second communication channel, where the second communication channel comprises a direct communication channel between the at least one peripheral hardware device and the virtual network system that is separate and distinct from the first communication channel.

  • Publication number: 20240007482
    Abstract: A system is provided for remediating computing system breaches by reversibly distributing data to a plurality of edge points in a distributed network. In particular, the system may intelligently track network data to predict breach vector pathways and may track various types of network traffic data for computing systems within the network. Based on the network traffic data, the system may generate a network topology, mapping the various types of network connections across the computing systems in the network environment as well as the datasets that were transferred across such connections. In the event of a system breach, the system may divide each dataset into a plurality of partial data packets. The system may transmit each partial data packet to a different user device or computing device in the network. After the breach is remediated, the system may recall the individual data packets and reassemble the datasets for future use.

  • Publication number: 20240007285
    Abstract: A system is provided for cryptographic hash-based reconstruction of electronic data files. In particular, the system may comprise a data reconstruction database containing entries for elements of electronic data files. Each element and/or entry within the data reconstruction database may be associated with a unique tag or identifier. Accordingly, when data files are generated and/or stored by the system, the data files may comprise an ordered list of one or more identifiers. Based on the identifiers with the data files, the system may dynamically reconstruct the contents of the data files. The system may further use cryptographic keys or hash values to provide secured access control to the data files. In this way, the system may provide an efficient and secure way to store and generate electronic data files and provide secured access thereto.

  • Patent number: 11858800
    Abstract: A fluid exchanger may exchange a fluid (e.g., coolant) in a reservoir (e.g., vehicle radiator) by removing or withdrawing a first fluid (e.g., old, spent, used, etc.) and by introducing a second fluid (e.g., new, clean, etc.). For example, the fluid exchanger may use a negative pressure, suction, or vacuum to draw the first fluid from the reservoir, and subsequently, the second fluid may be transferred into the reservoir using a negative pressure held in the reservoir, a positive pressure applied to the second fluid, or a combination thereof. The fluid exchanger may also include a multi-purpose, hand-held nozzle that can change an operation of the fluid exchanger from a withdrawing mode to a dispensing mode.
