US Patent:

45537194, Nov 19, 1985

Filed:

Apr 1, 1985

Appl. No.:

6/717644

Inventors:

David Ott - Houston TX

International Classification:

B64D 900

US Classification:

2441181

Abstract:

An improved carrying assembly is provided for using with, and controlled from, a helicopter to seize and lift immobilized vehicles from freeways and other limited access highways. The carrying assembly may be composed of an integrated and framework having four selectively adjustable vertical leg members, each horizontally positionable one to another, for seizing and supporting the vehicle at appropriate points on its chassis whereby the carrying assembly can engage vehicles of many different sizes and configurations. Control and actuation of each of the different segments of the framework is preferably achieved from within the helicopter, whereby the vehicle targeted from removal can be directly approached from overhead, and whereby the vehicle can be securely seized and lifted without assistance from personnel on the ground.

H04L 9/32

Abstract:

The disclosure provides an approach for cryptographic agility. Embodiments include receiving, by a cryptographic agility system associated with an application, a request to establish a secure communication session. Embodiments include, prior to establishing the secure communication session, selecting, by the cryptographic agility system, a first cryptographic technique and a second cryptographic technique for the secure communication session. Embodiments include, during the secure communication session, utilizing the first encryption technique for securely communicating a first set of data. Embodiments include determining that a condition has been met for switching from the first encryption technique to the second encryption technique. Embodiments include, based on the determining that the condition has been met, utilizing the second encryption technique for securely communication a second set of data.

International Classification:

H04L 9/32
G06N 20/00

Abstract:

The disclosure provides an approach for auditable cryptographic agility. Embodiments include receiving, by a cryptographic agility system, a request to perform a cryptographic operation related to an application. Embodiments include selecting, by the cryptographic agility system, a cryptographic technique for performing the cryptographic operation based on contextual information associated with the request. Embodiments include performing, by the cryptographic agility system, the cryptographic operation using the cryptographic technique. Embodiments include writing, by the cryptographic agility system, data related to selecting the cryptographic technique to a secure digital ledger.

International Classification:

H04L 9/14

Abstract:

The disclosure provides an approach for cryptographic agility. Embodiments include receiving a request from an application for a cryptographic operation, wherein the request is associated with a computing device. Embodiments include determining one or more resource constraints related to the computing device. Embodiments include selecting, based on the one or more resource constraints, a cryptographic technique from a plurality of cryptographic techniques associated with indications of resource requirements. Embodiments include performing the cryptographic operation using the cryptographic technique. Embodiments include providing a response to the application based on performing the cryptographic operation.
