  • Patent number: 12355867
    Abstract: Techniques for ensuring that geographic location specific security policies are enforce for an agent or agent device. An Agent service of an agent device accesses an Agent Authentication Service for a key to initiate one or more functions of the agent device. The Agent Authentication Service determines the location of the agent device and determines whether the agent device is within an approved geographic location based on geographic location specific security policies. If the agent device is within the approved geographic location, the Agent Authentication Services accesses a Key Management Service for a cryptographic key and delivers the cryptographic key to the Agent. If the Agent Authentication Service determines that the Agent device is outside of the approved location, access to the cryptographic key is denied.

  • Publication number: 20250144258
    Abstract: A luminaire includes a housing configured to be positioned over an area, the housing including a frame having a first channel for receiving a light emitter. A light emitter is positioned in the first channel. The light emitter is configured to emit ultra-violet light. A reflector assembly is connected to the frame to direct ultra-violet light emitted from the light emitter. At least a portion of the area is located at 0 degrees relative to the light emitter and a majority of the emitted ultra-violet light is emitted from the housing between 90 degrees and 130 degrees relative to the light emitter in a first direction.

  • Publication number: 20250023919
    Abstract: Techniques for optimizing routing decisions based on security metrics within a network environment are described herein. In some cases, by using various security metrics, such as encryption indicators, attestation indicators, secureness metrics, and reliability metrics, an exemplary system can assess the security level and reliability of network paths. These metrics may provide valuable insights into the trustworthiness and integrity of participating nodes and links and enable informed decision-making regarding path selection.

  • Patent number: 12149436
    Abstract: Technologies for testing resiliency of a data network with real-world accuracy without affecting the flow of production data through the network. A method according to the technologies may include receiving a production data packet and determining a preferred data route toward a destination node for the production data packet based on a first routing information base, wherein the first routing information base includes a database where routes and route metadata are stored according to a routing protocol. The method may also include, receiving a test data packet, and determining an alternate data route toward the destination node for the test data packet based on a second routing information base, wherein the second routing information base simulates an error in the preferred data route. The method may include sending the production data packet to the preferred data route and sending the test data packet to the alternate data route.
