US Classification:

726 25, 726 1, 718 1

Abstract:

A computer-implemented method for remediation of a computing device attempting to access a network. The method may include detecting that the computing device is attempting to access the network. The method may also include determining that the computing device does not comply with a network-access-control policy of the network. The method may include using a virtualization layer to bring the computing device into compliance with the network-access-control policy. The method may include permitting the computing device to access the network after the computing device is brought into compliance with the network-access-control policy. Various other methods, systems, and computer-readable media are also disclosed.

International Classification:

G06Q 40/00

US Classification:

705037000

Abstract:

An electronic inspection report system includes a central report generator and a data collection device. The central report generator is adapted to produce multiple types of inspection report template. The central report generator is adapted to select a type of inspection report template to provide to a data collection device based upon various criteria. The central report generator is adapted to receive electronic information from various databases and format the information such that the information can be used in inspection reports. While inspecting an item, an inspector uses a data collection device to access an inspection report template and fill in fields of the inspection report template. The data collection device can be configured to check the consistency of information carried in fields of the inspection report and signal the inspector when some of the information is inconsistent. The central report generator can include a repository of completed inspection reports. The central report generator can be configured to mine the repository of completed inspection reports and determine correlations between fields of the completed inspection reports. Software in the data collection device can updated such that the data collection device can perform consistency checks between fields that the central report generator has determined have a correlation.
