Abstract: Where a single networked security service supports multiple enterprises, this security service can operate as a shared source of trust so that security devices associated with one enterprise can provide authenticated, policy-based management of computing devices associated with another enterprise. For example, an enterprise firewall can advantageously manage network access for a new device based on a shared and authenticated relationship with the networked security service.

Abstract: An eye surgery apparatus has imaging optics for generating an observation image of a patient eye. A device determines the azimuthal orientation of the patient eye with respect to a reference which is fixed with respect to the patient eye. The device includes a display unit for simultaneously displaying a section of an observation image of the eye and a reference image thereof. An input interface permits an observer to move the displayed section of the observation image relative to the displayed section of the reference image. A measuring system determines the azimuthal orientation of the observation image and reference image. A computer program calculates the center of the limbus of the observation image and reference image. The display unit displays the pixels of the observation image of the patient eye with polar coordinates. The pixels of the reference image of the patient eye are displayed with polar coordinates.
