  • Patent number: 10574658
    Abstract: In some embodiments, an apparatus includes a memory, storing processor-executable instructions, blacklist terms, and credential dump records, and a processor. The processor receives repository data from targeted remote repositories and stores the repository data as a potential credential dump in the memory when the repository data includes a credential dump attribute. The processor stores the potential credential dump as a probable credential dump when the potential credential dump does not include a blacklist term, in which case the processor also detects a format and delimiter of the probable credential dump. Based on the format and delimiter, pairs of usernames and associated passwords are identified and hashed. If a percentage of the hashes not associated with the credential dump records exceeds a predetermined threshold, the probable credential dump is deemed authentic.

  • Patent number: 10302396
    Abstract: A method of training a human for a marksmanship task using a training apparatus, and the apparatus therefor. The apparatus senses and records motions within a time window. The method includes sensing and recording motions sensed by the one or more sensors, detecting a synchronization event, analyzing the sensed and recorded motions that were sensed in the time window, comparing the analyzed sensed and recorded motions with a set of desired analyzed motions to generate difference data; and, responsive to the comparing, presenting to the user in the user's field of perception visual feedback indicating one or both the direction and magnitude of deviation from the set of desired analyzed motions. The presenting the visual feedback to the user is essentially instantaneous, e.g., commencing no later than 10 ms (at most 100 ms) after the synchronization event.

  • Patent number: 9584541
    Abstract: The cyber threat identification and analytics (“CTIA”) apparatuses, methods and systems, for example, identify a list of relevant malware indicators of compromise (IOCs) during a cyber security incident. The CTIA system automatically groups relevant malware IOCs from all known samples of a particular threat, given either a threat or a specific IOC without knowing the threat. In this way, an incident responder can use the group of relevant malware IOCs to have the highest probability of locating infections of variations of malware of the particular threat.

  • Patent number: 8718755
    Abstract: The present invention relates to methods and devices for determining the state of a neural system. In one embodiment, a plurality of stimuli to the system can be delivered to the system, and then the resulting respective responses can be analyzed to determine whether the system state is static, or whether it is undergoing dynamic changes. In another aspect of the invention, a single stimulus having a plurality of components can be administered, and the responses to each component can be contrasted and compared to determine the state of the neural system. In each case, this information can be used to predict the occurrence of neural perturbations or episodes associated with a change in the state of the neural system.

  • Publication number: 20130019260
    Abstract: The invention provides an improved method and system for interactive broadcast and web information browsing. In embodiments of the invention, web information is presented in conjunction with a broadcast television image, either at an edge of the image screen or overlaid with the image screen in an opaque, transparent or translucent image. The presented web information is fully interactive and can be interacted with by the user using all known features of interactive web presentation.

  • Publication number: 20120086222
    Abstract: A child safety latch with a removable catch piece. The latch can restrict access to cabinetry. The catch piece can be adjusted to allow the length of the latch to be varied so as to adapt to different cabinet/drawer configurations and to facilitate entry of adult fingers to operate the latch while simultaneously restricting the opening size to prevent access by a small child's hand. This latch may require the simultaneous depression of two buttons to disengage the catch piece so as to increase the degree of difficulty required to operate the latch beyond the capabilities of a child.

  • Patent number: 7361350
    Abstract: Methods of treating, inhibiting, or ameliorating arthritis, including rheumatoid arthritis, osteoarthritis, psoriatic arthritis, ankylosing spondylitis, or juvenile rheumatoid arthritis, in a human subject in need thereof, comprising administering to a subject in need a therapeutic amount of an interleukin 1 (IL-1) antagonist, wherein arthritis inhibited, or ameliorated. The IL-1 antagonist is an IL-1-specific fusion protein comprising an IL-1 binding portion of the extracellular domain of human II-1RAcP, an IL-1 binding portion of the extracellular domain of human IL-1RI, and a multimerizing component antagonist, preferably comprising a sequence selected from the group consisting of SEQ ID NO:4, 6, 8, 10, 12, 14, 16, 18, 20, 22, 24, 26, or a substantially identical sequence.

  • Patent number: 7072948
    Abstract: The invention provides a method and system for receiving incoming information from multiple information sources, both interactive and passive, and for engagingly presenting that information to a recipient on a presentation interface. The system includes a “background” element, which interacts with interactive information sources and receives from passive information sources, and determines whether information from those sources is likely to be interesting to the recipient, possibly using one information source to determine priority for another. The system also includes a “foreground” element, which presents information to the recipient when active, but not when inactive.

  • Publication number: 20060084027
    Abstract: A method and apparatus for communicating specific idiosyncrasies in tooth appearance to be replicated in the fabrication of tooth restorations, as well as a method for creating reference images of a tooth are disclosed. The apparatus contains images of a tooth, wherein categories of specific features are displayed in the images, and codes are assigned to the images according to variations within the categories. The method of communication utilizes the apparatus by allowing a first user to compare an actual tooth to the images, record the codes for images with features that most closely resemble the actual tooth, and transmit the codes to a second user who may reference the same selected images using the recorded codes. The reference images of a particular type of tooth are created by separating and enhancing specific features in photographs of an actual tooth.
