A method of controlling access to electronic information is provided. The method requires the use of a portable token adapted to read and verify a user's biometric data in order to view encrypted files or data fields. If the proper biometric data is entered into the token, the user is presented with a unique and dynamic password for logon. The unique password is displayed on a small LCD screen on the token. Access to the protected information is allowed once the unique password is verified by the enterprise system containing the encrypted.

A trust web keying process provides secure peer networking of computing devices on an open network. A device is initially keyed at distribution to an end user or installer with a device-specific cryptographic key, and programmed to respond only to peer networking communication secured using the device's key. The device-specific key is manually entered into a keying device that transmits a re-keying command secured with the device-specific key to the device for re-keying the device with a group cryptographic key. The device then securely peer networks with other devices also keyed with the group cryptographic key, forming a trust web. Guest devices can be securely peer networked with the trust web devices via a trust web gateway.

The present invention relates to system and methods for providing enhanced firearm safety by utilizing an electronic firearm locking device present in the firearm, in communication with a mobile application of a wireless mobile communication device and a remote firearm management server that provides five levels of safety for selective and dynamic enabling and disabling of the firearm based on real time situations along with several value added features.

An artificial heart pump system has a heart pump implanted in a patient. A pump control unit worn by a patient includes a programmable device for adapting a secure aspect of heart pump operation in response to pump operating commands. The pump control unit has a wired interface and a wireless interface. A clinical external unit is adapted to be connected to the wired interface for delivering a pump operating command to the pump control unit. An auxiliary external unit is adapted to be connected to the wireless interface for collecting patient and / or pump system performance-related data from the pump control unit. The wireless interface is unable to consummate a pump operating command.

Disclosed is an improved ESD control system for use in vehicular applications that incorporated one or more dissipative elements constructed from a blend of polypropylene and a urethane / acrylic alloy which form substantially co-continuous networks and which are suitable for injection molding operations to produce dissipative elements. The dissipative elements are then incorporated into vehicular interiors in a manner whereby a surface of the element is exposed to contact, whether incidental or deliberate, by the vehicle occupants, particularly as they are entering or exiting the vehicle, to provide controlled dissipation of electrostatic charges that have accumulated on the occupants. In particular, these materials may be used in forming portions of the vehicle seat assembly and / or door assembly that will typically be contacted during egress, operation of the vehicle and / or ingress in order to suppress subsequent and less controlled discharges that could compromise the comfort and safety of the vehicle occupants.

A centrifuge vessel is configured to have at least two chambers therein separated by a divider, and with a spillway around a lip at an end of the divider to join the chambers. After centrifugation differing density phases of an original sample remain on opposite sides of the divider. Separate extraction ports are provided for removal of differing density phases of the original sample from opposite sides of the divider. A method of use of the centrifuge vessel includes centrifugation and extraction at differing orientations of the vessel for convenient and reliable extraction of differing density fractions from the original sample.

A smart safe console system; the smart safe console system includes a smart safe console assembly having a smart safe body suitable to house and button configured for controlling input and output communications to and from the electronic device when a vehicle hosting the smart safe console system is in use. Smart safe console system is useful for improving vehicle safety in relation to the use of electronic devices.

A physical unclonable function (PUF) array includes a plurality of PUF transistor cells each of which includes at least one inverter. An input and an output of the at least one inverter are shorted to a first reference node. There is adjustment circuitry for adjusting a reference voltage of the first reference node, and measurement circuitry for measuring a trip point of the at least one inverter. If the trip point is close to the reference voltage then bits of the at least one inverter are defined as unstable.
