  • Patent number: 10489066
    Abstract: A computer-implemented method and a system for ensuring right-to-erasure compliance during data recovery are disclosed. The method may include intercepting a request to perform a recovery process to restore backup data, automatically comparing a backup image of requested data with a record of right-to-erasure orders, and determining, based on the comparison, that the backup image includes individual data related to at least one right-to-erasure order. The record of right-to-erasure orders may include at least one of an identity of an individual, at least one creation and/or execution date of a right-to-erasure order, and/or a list of backup images associated with a right-to-erasure order. The method may further include erasing the individual data to comply with the at least one right-to-erasure order, recording the erasure of the individual data in an audit log, and completing the recovery process for the requested data.

  • Patent number: 10216583
    Abstract: The disclosed computer-implemented method for data protection using cloud-based snapshots may include (1) identifying a request to back up an information asset hosted by a cloud-based platform, (2) discovering, in response to the request, a plurality of snapshots taken at the cloud-based platform, where at least some of the plurality of snapshots store data underlying the information asset but do not provide a consistent image of the information asset, (3) determining that a snapshot subset of the plurality of snapshots provides data sufficient to produce a consistent image of the information asset by attempting to recover a consistent image of the information asset from the snapshot subset within a rehearsal environment, and (4) performing a backup that provides a consistent image of the information asset from the snapshot subset. Various other methods, systems, and computer-readable media are also disclosed.

  • Patent number: 6941692
    Abstract: A safety mechanism for a firearm with a lock pivotally attached to the firearm and an insertable key, which is disposable in the lock. In an off-safe position, the key is disposed within the lock and the lock is held against the firearm when a user grasps a handle portion of the firearm. When the lock is no longer being held against the firearm, the lock pivots away from the firearm and the key is ejected from the lock, such that the lock is in an on-safe position. When the key is absent from within the lock, the lock cannot be pivoted toward the firearm. It is emphasized that this abstract is provided to comply with the rules requiring an abstract that will allow a searcher or other reader to quickly ascertain the subject matter of the technical disclosure. It is submitted with the understanding that it will not be used to interpret or limit the scope or meaning of the claims.
