Abstract: An implant is provided for use in an ankle joint between reconditioned end surfaces established on a distal end of an upper tibia bone and an opposing lower talus bone. The implant comprises a substantially porous rigid component adapted to be anchored against the upper tibia reconditioned end surface and the lower talus reconditioned end surface. The component defining an opening therethrough. An intramedullary nail is configured to pass through the opening in the component when the nail is driven through the talus and into the tibia.

Abstract: A method is provided for electrodepositing a coating a conductive workpiece. The method provides for individually switching on or off electrodes both interior to and exterior to the workpiece so as to control the deposition of the coating material on the interior surface and the exterior surface of the workpiece. Further, an electrode having insulating positioners can be utilized to provide for better centering of the electrode in the interior of the workpiece.

Abstract: Systems and methods of identifying a security risk by monitoring and generating alerts based on attempts to access web domains that have been registered within a short period of time and are therefore identified as “high-risk,” including identifying an attempt to access a domain; receiving a registration date of the domain; and detecting a security risk based on the registration date of the domain.

Abstract: Systems and methods of managing the security of a networked environment by deploying virtual appliances and using a central monitoring console to manage the feedback from these virtual appliances and view it alongside other activity on the network environment. In one embodiment a system is provided that includes a control module; and one or more virtual appliances each configured to, upon deployment in the network, automatically communicably link to the control module and report state information about the virtual appliance.

Abstract: Systems and methods of managing the security of a networked environment based on activity associated with deployed pseudo-accounts are presented. In one embodiment, a plurality of pseudo-accounts are deployed in one or more networks, domains, or virtual machines and activity associated with the pseudo-accounts is collected to identify security risks to facilitate remediation and mitigation.

Abstract: The electrophoretically coating of a conductive workpiece with an epoxy resin and then depositing a fluoropolymer top coat on said epoxy resin is provided. The method includes electrodepositing a first epoxy resin layer, which is subsequently at least partially cured, and then depositing a fluoropolymer onto the workpiece as a second layer. Subsequently, the workpiece is further cured.

Abstract: A first cryptographic device is configured to generate a passcode for submission to a second authentication device. The second authentication device determines a particular type of shuffling to be applied to a passcode in conjunction with submission of that passcode for authentication, and verifies that the passcode has been entered in accordance with the particular type of shuffling. The first cryptographic device may comprise an authentication token and the second cryptographic device may comprise at least one authentication server. By way of example, the second cryptographic device may generate a shuffle indicator signal specifying the particular type of shuffling, such that the shuffle indicator signal can be transmitted and thereby made apparent to a user associated with the first cryptographic device. The user then alters his or her manner of entry of the passcode based on the received shuffle indicator signal, such as entering the passcode in a reverse order.

Abstract: A method for timer continuation in a power reset scenario by an in-vehicle system is described. The method includes beginning a power reset. The method also includes determining whether a timer associated with an emergency call (e.g., eCall) was running before the power reset. The method further includes continuing timer use if the timer was running before the power reset. The method additionally includes registering the in-vehicle system on a network if the timer was running before the power reset.

Abstract: Event-based biometric authentication is provided using a mobile device of a user. A user attempting to access a protected resource is authenticated by receiving a request to access the protected resource; collecting biometric information from the user in response to the request using a mobile device of the user; performing biometric authentication of the user using the collected biometric information; and granting access to the protected resource based on the biometric authentication. The authentication optionally comprises an event-based authentication. The mobile device does not have to contain token generating material.

Abstract: An improved authentication technique employs a user's mobile device to obtain a picture of the user from which facial geometry is extracted and applied as part of an authentication operation of the user to the remote network. In some examples, a server stores facial geometry for different users along with associated PINs. By matching facial geometry of the user with facial geometry on the server, the user's PIN can be obtained, without the user ever having to register or remember the PIN.
