Title: Self testing process for a railway brake system
Inventor: ANSTEY NIGEL
IPC: B60T17/22
Filed: 2014-08-22
Abstract: A brake system has a brake ECU comprising a microcontroller and a non-volatile memory. The non-volatile memory is adapted to store the result of tests on the safety circuits carried out during, before or after operation of the brake system, the result of the tests being assigned one of at least two statuses, at least one of the said statuses being indicative of an unhealthy test. At start-up of the brake system self-tests are carried out on the circuits or components of the brake system for which an unhealthy status has been stored in the non-volatile memory, thereby enabling the brake system to operate prime functions without prior self-test. The tests may be performed at closedown and prioritised, with failed tests the highest priority and overdue tests the next priority.

Title: Computer device and method for isolating untrusted content
Inventor: AUSTIN MARK
IPC: G06F21/56
Filed: 2014-10-20
Abstract: User process (120, fig. 2) in primary user account 121 requests operating system 202 to action a task. Agent 300, executing in cooperation with the OS comprises a task interceptor (320, fig. 2), a task policy unit (330, fig. 2), an isolation environment provisioner (340, fig. 2) and a controller (310, fig. 2). The interceptor intercepts and provides metadata relevant to the task before it is actioned by the OS. The task policy unit examines the metadata and selectively outputs a result identifying the task as untrusted, e.g. due to the nature of the task or because it accesses untrusted content. The provisioner provisions task isolation environment 350 by programmatically creating secondary user account 121b and the controller causes the untrusted task to be executed as an isolated process in the task isolation environment. A network drive 420, mapped into the primary user account, is determined and is mapped 420b into the secondary user account. The agent intercepts a file access request in relation to the mapped network drive of the secondary user account and determines whether to allow or deny the request.

Title: Vacuum dome
Inventor: STEPHEN JAMES WINDSOR
IPC: B65B31/02
Filed: 2016-09-08
Abstract: A vacuum dome 1 for skin packing apparatus has at least one aperture 5 in the internal surface 4 through which air may be extracted. Preferably the dome has a plurality of apertures 5 and can have at least 25, 50 or 100 apertures. The apertures or holes may be equally spaced over the internal surface and may be arranged in a rectangular array.

Title: Managing removal and modification of installed programs on a computer device
Inventor: RICHARD DE MELLOW
IPC: G06F21/62
Filed: 2017-11-30
Abstract: A method to remove (i.e. uninstall) or modify (e.g. change, repair or patch) an installed program 220 that includes: intercepting a call 230 initiated by a user 210 to remove or modify the installed program prior to reaching installer 250, evaluating the requested action by agent 700 and where permitted providing a proxy process 240 to remove or modify the program. The user may not have privilege rights but the agent provides the proxy process with privileges sufficient to perform the requested action. The call may be a call to an API 251 of a native installer of Microsoft Windows (RTM). The call may be intercepted by hooking operating system functions which return program configuration settings from an operating system registry 204.

Title: Historic data breach detection
Inventor: FADI EL-MOUSSA
IPC: H04L9/00
Filed: 2017-12-19
Abstract: The invention specifies copying data accessible via a network 704 (e.g. from websites like pastebin or the dark web) and analysing it to identify information relating to network attacks 706. The analysis may involve looking for copies of supposedly secret/secure data that have been obtained via a network attack. The data may be prideful publishing of attack techniques by miscreants. The invention creates an attack signature from the identified attack information 708 (possibly the stolen secure data) and analyses network traffic records using the signature to identify further instances of the attack 710/712. Where an attack is identified the invention may then identify endpoints associated with the attack 714 and flag data associated with these endpoints as potentially compromised. Use of compromised data may be blocked, notably where the compromised data is security related (e.g. authentication credentials, certificates, keys).

Title: Verification of hardware design for data transformation pipeline
Inventor: SAM ELLIOTT
IPC: G06F17/50
Filed: 2018-04-05
Abstract: A method is provided for verifying a hardware design for a data transformation pipeline which comprises one or more data transformation elements that perform a data transformation on one or more inputs. Firstly a version of the hardware design for the data transformation pipeline is generated, in which at least one of the data transformation elements has been replaced with a function element treated as an unevaluated function of its inputs by a formal verification tool. The function element may be configured so that it produces the same output each time it is presented with the same set of inputs, and that may be implemented as an assumption statement in the version of the hardware design for the pipeline. It is then formally verified that an instantiation of the version of the hardware design for the data transformation pipeline generates a same output for a same transaction regardless of a state (e.g. after a stall or after a reset) of the pipeline from which the transaction is performed.
