  • Patent number: 11817870
    Abstract: Oscillator circuitry is disclosed. The oscillator circuitry comprises a free-running oscillator for generating pulses at a frequency, and a frequency adjustment circuit for adaptively adjusting the frequency of the free-running oscillator. The frequency adjustment circuit comprises a counter configured to count a number of pulses generated by the free-running oscillator and logic configured to compare the number of pulses with an expected number of pulses (corresponding to a target frequency) to determine a difference value and to adjust the frequency of the free-running oscillator in dependence on the difference value. The frequency adjustment circuit is configured, in response to receiving a synchronisation pulse, to trigger an update of the number of pulses to be compared.

  • Patent number: 11750641
    Abstract: Embodiments of the present invention provide techniques, systems, and methods for remote, agent-less enterprise computer threat data collection, malicious threat analysis, and identification and reporting of potential and real threats present on an enterprise computer system. Specifically, embodiments are directed to a system that securely identifies and maps sensitive information from computers across the enterprise. Secure and sensitive information may be internally encrypted and analyzed for indicators of compromise, threatening behavior, and known vulnerabilities. The remote, agent-less collection, analysis, and identification process can be repeated periodically to detect and map additional sensitive information over time, and may delete itself after completion to avoid detection.
