  • Publication number: 20220069564
    Abstract: A high-voltage protection module for a metrology device includes a metal-oxide varistor (MOV) coupled across a mains power line, a resistor electrically coupled to the MOV in series with the MOV, and a fuse electrically coupled to the MOV and the resistor in series, the resistor being located between the fuse and the MOV. The fuse opens upon an overvoltage event disengaging alternating current (AC) power from the mains power line to the metrology device.

  • Publication number: 20220070194
    Abstract: An inventory of Internet-facing assets related to a username within a social media site is generated using network data gathered from network data sources. Using data sources of known threats, such as malware, phishing attempts, scam pages, blacklisted sites, and so on, a network analytic system generates analytical information about components that are owned, managed, and/or controlled by a target entity. A measure of identity threat is generated based on a classification model using the analytical information.

  • Patent number: 11184317
    Abstract: Functionality is disclosed for providing status updates for email threads. A personal information management (PIM) server application receive a first message and a second message. The PIM server application can extract a first status value from the first message and a second status value from the second message, and can generate a status notification message that includes one or both of the first status value or the second status value. The PIM server application can also receive a third message subsequent to the first and second messages, and extract a third status value from the third message. Subsequently, the status notification message can be updated by replacing the first status value or the second status value with the third status value in the status notification message. In this manner, the status notification message can provide a consolidated view of the latest status of multiple email threads.
