Title: System and method of foiling buffer-overflow and alien-code attacks
Inventor: MAIN ALEXANDER
IPC: G06F21/62
Filed: 2003-02-14
Abstract: The present invention relates generally to computer software, and more specifically, to a system and method of foiling buffer-overflow and alien-code attacks. The invention protects computers from such attacks by encoding data placed in storage, and varying the encodings used in different storage areas. When the data is needed by a software application, the data is simply decoded in a complementary manner. This prevents storage areas written according to one usage from being used effectively for some other purpose. The method of the invention can be done in a number of ways. For example, a "protector" engine can be placed between a software application and memory, or the function calls in the software application itself, could be amended to include encoding and decoding. Other embodiments and alternatives are also described.

Abstract: Porous members can be positioned so as to partially or fully span channels in microfluidic systems. The porous members can be assembled and/or disassembled in situ. The porous members can be made such that pores are separated by connections including but a single molecule at one location, allowing for a high level of open area in a very small pore size member. The porous member can be made up of colloid particles interconnected with molecular species.  These can be used to detect analytes qualitatively and/or quantitatively, or to selectively bind and/or release agents on command for a variety of purposes including first blocking, then opening a channel, concentrating analyte over time followed by release of analyte and detection downstream, etc. Porous members can define valves in multiple-channel systems and, with controlled binding and release of agents at the porous members, these valves can be opened and closed and fluid flow controlled in a multi-channel system. Fluidic systems of the invention can include multiple sensing locations at which different analytes are determined. Systems of the invention provide flexibility for overall microchemical analysis, sequentially, of a variety of agents.
