Methods and apparatus for restricting access of a user using random partial biometrics

A biometrics security method and apparatus are disclosed that restrict the ability of a user to access a device or facility using a portion of biometric data to validate the user's identity. Upon a user request to access a secure device or facility, the central biometric security system initially sends a first request for a specific sample of a portion of the user's biometric information. The specific sample may be identified, for example, using a set of image coordinates. A second request is also sent to retrieve the biometric prototype from a database of registered users. The central biometric security system then compares the user biometrics portion with the corresponding biometrics prototype portions. The user receives access to the requested device if the user biometrics portion(s) matches the corresponding biometrics prototype portions. In one variation, the biometric security system transmits a security agent to the user's computing device upon a user request to access a remote device. The security agent serves to extract user biometric portions in accordance with the sampling request from the central biometric security system. In another variation, a local recognition is performed before a remote recognition to reduce the risk of a failed server side recognition due to a poor biometrics feature.

Automated accounting system that values, controls, records and bills the uses of equipment/vehicles for society

InactiveUS20060287783A1Fairly and accurately monitor and control the impact of equipment use on the world's environment andVehicle testingTelemetry/telecontrol selection arrangementsSecure communicationEnvironment effect
This invention addresses environmental social and commercial uses and includes a monitoring system which is a network of on, in, out and off-board devices working together with people through software and interfaces to provide services and make accountable humanity's machines and their actions through safe secure communication. Control devices are used to provide accountability for their socio-economic and environmental impact. Along with these systems networked together, additional devices and variations needed to complete these operations nationally and world wide are also provided. Unique ways interface a network of separate devices or IC circuits to create an interactive secure control system or center that can be remotely controlled. A control device for society to fairly and accurately monitor and control the impact of equipment use on the world environment, and a nation's infrastructure while developing commercial companies to fulfill these needs and services for the equipment and the people who own and operate them for today and into the future are also provided. A set of secure devices and systems are also included to analyze society and machine interaction.

Design of computer based risk and safety management system of complex production and multifunctional process facilities-application to fpso's

InactiveUS20120317058A1Strong robust attributeStrong robust attributesDigital computer detailsFuzzy logic based systemsProcess systemsNerve network
A method for predicting risk and designing safety management systems of complex production and process systems which has been applied to an FPSO System operating in deep waters. The methods for the design were derived from the inclusion of a weight index in a fuzzy class belief variable in the risk model to assign the relative numerical value or importance a safety device or system has contain a risk hazards within the barrier. The weights index distributes the relative importance of risk events in series or parallel in several interactive risk and safety device systems. The fault tree, the FMECA and the Bow Tie now contains weights in fizzy belief class for implementing safety management programs critical to the process systems. The techniques uses the results of neural networks derived from fuzzy belief systems of weight index to implement the safety design systems thereby limiting use of experienced procedures and benchmarks. The weight index incorporate Safety Factors sets SFri {0, 0.1, 0.2 . . . 1}, and Markov Chain Network to allow the possibility of evaluating the impact of different risks or reliability of multifunctional systems in transient state process. The application of this technique and results of simulation to typical FPSO/Riser systems has been discussed in this invention.

Method and system for monitoring a selected region of an airspace associated with local area networks of computing devices

A method for monitoring a selected region of an airspace associated with local area networks of computing devices is provided. The method includes providing one or more segments of a legacy local area network to be protected in a selected geographic region. The legacy local area network is characterized by an unsecured airspace within the selected geographic region. The method includes determining a security policy associated with the one or more segments of the legacy local area network. The security policy at least characterizes a type of wireless activity in the unsecured airspace to be permitted, denied, or ignored. Additionally, the method includes connecting one or more sniffer devices into the legacy local area network. The one or more sniffer devices are spatially disposed within the selected geographic region to cause at least a portion of the unsecured airspace to be secured according to the security policy. Moreover, the method includes coupling a security appliance to the legacy local area network. The method also includes determining if at least one of the sniffer devices is coupled to each of the one or more segments of the legacy local area network to be protected and determining if the one or more sniffer devices substantially covers the portion of the unsecured airspace to be secured. The method additionally includes monitoring wireless activity in the airspace using the one or more sniffer devices, and automatically classifying, using a classification process, a portion of information associated with the monitoring of the wireless activity to at least determine if the wireless activity communicates to at least one of the one or more segments to be protected. Further, the method includes detecting a violation of the security policy based upon at least the classifying of the portion of the information from the monitoring of the wireless activity, and automatically processing an action associated with the violation in accordance to the security policy for the one or more segments in the legacy local area network to be protected.
