20120267503 | Self-leveling, gravity-stabilized, sliding and tilting support for a chair - The self-leveling, gravity-stabilized, sliding and tilting support for a chair is a gravity-powered human stabilization device for use on moving craft such as boats, ships, cars, trucks and aircraft. This device belongs to a family of human stabilization devices often referred to in the past as “gimbaled chairs.” Similarly purposed devices often known as “rolling chairs” also have been invented. The present invention performs the same function as gimbaled chairs and rolling chairs but is much smaller, lighter, simpler, cheaper to make; lacks spindles or gantries, axles, wheels, bearings or metallic tracks; needs no maintenance or lubrication; and has just one moving part. The basic device is constructed of just nine parts. These components are very simple; all can be readily, inexpensively fabricated using common composite construction techniques. At the heart of the device is a rotationally sliding payload platform. The platform is secured atop a semi-circular, upwardly curved dish. The outer edges of the dish ride inside radius-grooved, low-friction, high-density plastic end caps secured within a containment cassette. The dish/payload platform assembly rotationally slides freely and smoothly to remain level while the cassette and the mounting base tilt as the craft upon which the device is mounted rolls from side to side. | 10-25-2012 |

20130014259 | DETECTION OF SPYWARE THREATS WITHIN VIRTUAL MACHINE - A system analyzes content accessed at a network site to determine whether it is malicious. The system employs a tool able to identify spyware that is piggy-backed on executable files (such as software downloads) and is able to detect “drive-by download” attacks that install software on the victim's computer when a page is rendered by a browser program. The tool uses a virtual machine (VM) to sandbox and analyze potentially malicious content. By installing and running executable files within a clean VM environment, commercial anti-spyware tools can be employed to determine whether a specific executable contains piggy-backed spyware. By visiting a Web page with an unmodified browser inside a clean VM environment, predefined “triggers,” such as the installation of a new library, or the creation of a new process, can be used to determine whether the page mounts a drive-by download attack. | 01-10-2013 |
20130198522 | SYSTEMS AND METHODS FOR FILE ACCESS AUDITING - Systems and methods for providing an auditing file system for theft-prone devices are disclosed. The auditing file system supports fine-grained file auditing: a user may obtain reliable, explicit evidence that no files have been accessed after a device's loss. A user may also disable future file access after a device's loss, even in the absence of device network connectivity. In one embodiment, files are encrypted locally but the encryption keys are stored remotely, so that an audit server is queried for encryption keys to access protected files. By configuring the audit server to refuse to return a particular file's key, the user can prevent new accesses after the device is lost. | 08-01-2013 |
