Abstract:
Described herein are systems and methods for managing and distributing device and/or software settings. In some embodiments, the systems and methods permit a first device to upload settings information and/or user information to a network server. The network server may store such settings information and post it for download by at least one second device. Mechanisms for establishing a trust rating for such settings information are also described.
Abstract:
Technologies for controlling vision correction of a wearable computing device includes controlling an opacity of an adjustable lens of the wearable computing device to generate a viewing port through the adjustable lens such that a region defined by the viewing port has an opacity less than a remaining region of the adjustable lens. For example, the opacity of the adjustable lens may be increased except for the region defined by the viewing port. In use, the wearable computing device may adjust the location, size, and/or shape of the viewing port based on a predefined prescription, the direction of the user's gaze, the user's viewing context, and/or other criteria. Additionally or alternatively, an image may be displayed on an external display surface of the adjustable lens. The wearable computing device may include multiple adjustable lens, each of which may be controlled in a similar manner.
Abstract:
Technologies for determining a threat assessment based on fear responses comprises monitoring sensor data received from a sensor array located at a monitored site. The sensor data may include behavioral sensor data indicative of a physical behavior of individuals within the monitored site and physiological sensor data indicative of physiological characteristics of individuals within the monitored site. The threat assessment may be based on the behavioral sensor data and physiological sensor data. In some embodiments, context data related to the monitored site may be utilized analyze the behavioral sensor data and physiological sensor data and determine a threat assessment based thereon.
Abstract:
Technologies for managing device functions of an ingestible computing device include determining whether adaptation of a device function of the ingestible computing device is required based on sensor data generated by the ingestible computing device. If device function adaption is determined to be required, the ingestible computing device determines a new device function to be performed, obtains program code modules to perform the new device function, and locally compiles the new program code modules to generate executable code. The ingestible computing device may execute the executable code to cause the ingestible computing device to begin performing the new device function. The ingestible computing device may obtain the program code modules from a local function database or via an authenticated wireless communication.
Abstract:
Technologies for managing security threats on a computing system include detecting a security threat to the computing system, determining a plurality of mitigation scenarios to employ on the computing system to mitigate the security threat, and implementing the plurality of mitigation scenarios. Each mitigation scenario includes one or more threat mitigation actions to be taken by the computing system, one or more response systems of the computing system to perform the threat mitigation actions, and a temporal sequence in which the threat mitigation actions are to be taken. The results of each mitigation scenario is evaluated and a validated mitigation scenario is determined based on the results. A user of the computing device may be subsequently trained or habituated to mitigate the security threat by requesting interaction from the user during the implementation of the validated mitigation scenario in response to a threat scenario designed to replicate the security threat.
Abstract:
A technique allows a client computing system with a web browser to receive a web page in response to transmitting a request for content. The web page may include active content, html data and cascading style sheets (CSS). In embodiments, a gateway device may rewrite the web page dynamically by rewriting node identifiers and class names, removing and separating client-side scripts from html data and CSS data, and blocking or disabling execution of the client-side scripts if these scripts contain vulnerable code. A web page may be rewritten based on analysis information provided by a third-party or analyzed at the gateway device.
Abstract:
Embodiments of apparatus and methods for providing recommendations based on environmental data and associated contextual information are described. In embodiments, an apparatus may include a data collector to receive environmental data and an analysis module to identify a behavioral model of the first user based at least in part on the environmental data associated contextual information of the first user. The apparatus may further include a recommendation module to provide a recommendation to the first user based at least in part on the behavioral model of the first user and/or environmental data for a second user. Other embodiments may be described and/or claimed.
Abstract:
Technologies for dynamically implementing an image protection policy include a camera device with a camera to capture an image of at least one person. The camera device determines a location in the image of at least one person in the image, determines a location of at least one personal computing device, and maps the personal computing devices to the persons captured in the image based on the determined device and image locations. The camera device may broadcast an announcement of the creation of the image to the personal computing devices, negotiate an image protection policy with each of the personal computing devices, and implement the negotiated image protection policy.
Abstract:
Generally, this disclosure describes a method and system for authenticating to a network via a device-specific one-time password. A method in an embodiment may include generating a first one-time password (OTP) based at least in part on a plurality of client device attributes; and providing the first OTP to an authenticator associated with a private network during a first session, wherein the authenticator is configured to authenticate the client device to at least one of the private network and protected content included in the private network for a second session following the first session based on the provided first OTPP.
Abstract:
Generally, this disclosure describes a method and system for route personalization. A method may include, in an embodiment, requesting that a user of a computing device provide a trip modifier in response to a request from the user to map a route from a first location to a second location; acquiring objective data related to the trip modifier for at least one possible route from the first location to the second location; generating a weighted route recommendation associated with each possible route based on the acquired objective data and the trip modifier; and displaying each possible route and its associated weighted route recommendation on the computing device, wherein the trip modifier comprises at least one user characteristic and each weighted route recommendation is configured to provide a personalized route recommendation to the user for the respective associated possible route.
