Abstract: Using activity monitored by multiple data sources to identify shadow systems, the method comprising: gathering first information describing access to one or more resources by one or more user devices of a user; gathering, from at least a subset of the one or more user devices, second information describing access to the one or more resources; and identifying one or more shadow systems based on a discrepancy between the first information and the second information.

Abstract: An operational mode can be designated for a computing device, such as an integrated circuit. In particular, an input signal may be used to determine an operational mode, which may lead to bypassing or otherwise restricting one or more boot operations to permit use of the computing device. Such an approach provides improved flexibility to permit use of the computing device for testing or debugging while maintaining security features used during other operational modes.

Abstract: The present disclosure is directed to methods and systems for remote access hardware testing. A user can remotely control probes connected to an oscilloscope to collect signal measurements of test points on a circuit board. The user can control the probe point position on the circuit board using an application on a device to enter the test point locations. In some implementations, a user controls the probe machine using remote controls and a camera video feed to identify the test points on the circuit board and capture measurements. The hardware testing system can automate the measurement process with a script or by using machine learning to identify test points via a camera, controlling the probe machine, and capturing measurements of the test point.

Abstract: Systems and methods for intelligent and adaptive testing of a blockchain application to identify compliant code modifications. The method includes the steps of recording requests to and response from a baseline blockchain application receiving the requests from a plurality of application users. The same responses are input into a shadow blockchain application that includes a number of switch selectable new code segments. The switch selectable new code is enabled and disabled according to a pattern. The responses from the baseline application are compared against the response from the shadow blockchain application from when error vectors are generated. These error vectors are used to train a learning machine to determine which new code segments result in response errors or aberrations.

Abstract: A signal processing board including a resource board substrate, an external interface on the board substrate, adapted to receive signals for processing, at least one slot adapted to receive a plug-in module with at least one processor thereon and an interface unit adapted to at least participate in converting signals exchanged between the external interface and a processor on a module received by the slot, between a format of signals received by the external interface and a signal format of the processor. The interface unit is suitable to at least participate in the conversion for a plurality of types of processors that differ in the format in which they transmit or receive signals.

Abstract: There is described an automation network, a remote access server for an automation network and a method for transmission of operating data between an automation system with one or more automation devices and a remote computer with the operating data of the automation device being transmitted via the Internet or an intranet and displayed and/or changed on the remote computer by an Internet browser. The remote access server provides the operating data for the remote computer and, for a session-oriented access, creates a software object as an image of the automation device and, if changes are to be made to the operating data by the access, a software object for simulation of the automation device and/or of the process to be controlled by the automaton device, so that any changes can be checked for permissibility and/or validity before being forwarded to the automation device.
