Abstract: Provided is predictive modeling for anti-malware solutions. A profile for a device is determined based on at least one characteristic identified from a successful attempt by the device to access a network. An expected characteristic for a next access attempt by the device to access the network is determined based on the profile. The characteristic of the next access attempt is matched to the expected characteristic. In response to determining that at least one characteristic of the next access attempt matches the expected characteristic, the next access attempt by the device to the network is automatically granted.

Abstract: Provided is predictive modeling for anti-malware solutions. The predictive modeling includes an identification manager component that generates profile data for a hostile source. The hostile source is identified based on a previous threat attributed to the hostile source. The predictive modeling also includes an evaluation component that determines a characteristic of an interaction between a source and an endpoint. Further, the predictive modeling includes a validation component that compares the characteristic of the interaction with the profile data and controls access to the source by the endpoint based on the comparison. In addition, anti-malware software is not deployed on the endpoint.

Abstract: A scanning laser ophthalmoscope comprises a light source (LS) arranged to generate a beam of light; a deformable mirror relay (DM, SM1); a first scanning relay (VS, SM2); a second scanning relay (HS, SM3); a wavefront sensor (WFS); and a detector (APD). The deformable mirror relay comprises a deformable flat mirror (DM) arranged to compensate for distortions detected by the wavefront sensor (WFS). Each of the scanning relays comprises a flat scanning mirror (VS, HS) arranged to scan the beam across the eye of a subject. At least one of the relays has an entry focal plane and an exit focal plane and further comprises a spherical mirror arranged to reflect the beam from the entry focal plane onto the flat mirror and to reflect light from the flat mirror into the exit focal plane.

Abstract: Provided is authentication and authorization without the use of supplicants. Authentication and authorization includes generating a profile for a device based on at least one characteristic observed during a successful attempt by the device to access an 802.1X network infrastructure. Expected characteristics for a next attempt to access the infrastructure by the device are determined. A characteristic of the next access attempt is matched to the expected characteristic and access to the network is selectively controlled as a result of the matching. This is achieved without a supplicant being installed on the device.

Abstract: Cleaning compositions with improved rinsing properties which provide a surface with reduced spotting after rinsing are provided. The preferred compositions contain at least one surfactant selected from the group consisting of anionic surfactants, nonionic surfactants and combinations thereof; inorganic nanoparticles; a carrier dispersible polymer containing cationic, anionic and nonionic residues; and a carrier, preferably water. Methods for cleaning including applying to a surface a cleaning composition of the invention, and rinsing the surface, preferably with water, is also provided.

Abstract: Disclosed is a hard surface cleaning composition employing dibasic esters as a primary solvent in combination with a primary emulsifier, a short-chain cosurfactant, a secondary emulsifier and water. Optional components include a polar solvent and a thickener. The disclosed composition is preferably in the form of an oil continuous microemulsion and is provided as a component of a liquid or spray formulation for use, depending upon the application. The disclosed cleaning agents have a low odor and satisfy the 2005 CARB VOC requirements of less than 8% by weight for oven cleaners.

Abstract: The invention relates to preparations for impregnating cosmetic wipes, characterized in that they contain (a) an emulsifier mixture containing nonionic and amphoteric surfactants in a quantity ratio of 10:1 to 1:1, based on the quantity of emulsifiers, (b) a mixture of wax components containing wax esters, partial glycerides and fatty alcohol ethoxylates and (c) at least one cationic polymer. The preparations containing wax particles lead to optimal foaming and cleansing performance and to a favorable sensorial impression.

Abstract: Rifamycin derivatives having antimicrobial activities, including activities against drug-resistant microorganisms are claimed in this invention. The inventive rifamycin derivatives are uniquely designed in that they have a rifamycin moiety covalently linked to a linker group through the C-3 carbon of the rifamycin moiety and the linker is, in turn covalently linked to a therapeutic moiety or antibacterial agent/pharmacophore. The therapeutic moiety can be a quinolone, an oxazolidinone, a macrolide, an aminoglycoside, a tetracycline core or a structure/pharmacophore associated with an antibacterial agent.

Abstract: A computerized antenna mount system for continuously tracking a satellite in geosynchronous orbit that has an inclined orbit with respect to the equator. An antenna mount that automatically adjusts the declination angle of a ground station satellite antenna as a function of time after iteratively compiling the declination angle history from one complete orbit of a satellite. Different satellite orbits may be so compiled with selection of each satellite and its corresponding orbit information from memory.
