Abstract:
A stackable layer is provided for 3-Dimensional multi-layered modular computers. The stackable layer comprises at least one encapsulated chip die. Sets of electrical contacts are provided on each one of the large surfaces of the layer. The encapsulated chip die and the two large opposite surfaces of the layer are substantially parallel.
Abstract:
A secure audio peripheral device, coupled to a computer, capable of enabling a user to use audio devices such as a microphone, speakers or headset when the device is in operational state, while giving to the user a clear visual indication that the audio devices are enabled. The device simultaneously disables the microphone; and turns off the visual indication when the device is in secure state. The operational state is activated by the user by pressing a momentary push-button switch. A timer resets the device to a secure state after a short preset time. The device has anti-tempering functionality and becomes permanently disabled if tempered with. Optionally the device is coupled to the computer via a USB port that powers a USB CODEC chip and a LED used as the visual indicator.

Abstract:
The present invention presents apparatuses and systems for operating multiple computers from a single console using a secured KVM device, while preventing information leakage between the computers. The system comprises several hosts connected through a secured KVM device to keyboard and mouse and one or more user displays. Secured KVM enables standard bi-directional communication between Secured KVM and user keyboard and mouse and between hosts peripheral ports and Secured KVM. Secured KVM physically enforces unidirectional data flow from attached keyboard and mouse to attached hosts peripheral ports to avoid potential leakages between hosts.
Abstract:
Devices and methods provide for enabling a user to use a single user authentication device such as smart-card reader, such that the user is capable of securely interfacing with two or more isolated computers and enabling the user to authenticate and remain authenticated at multiple computers at the same time. Once the user removes the smart-card from the smart-card reader, the authentication session on all coupled computers is terminated at once. The user authentication device comprises: an authentication module connected via a channel selection switch to one of a plurality of channels, each interfacing with a respective coupled computer.
Abstract:
The present invention discloses a KVM (Keyboard Video Mouse) device for operation in high security environments. More specifically, this invention discloses a secure KVM built to prevent data leakages between two or more coupled computer hosts. The invention also discloses methods of operation of the secure KVM. Further more particularly, the invention presents a special secure KVM device for interacting with computers using a single user console, while preventing data leakage between the connected computers and attached networks.
