Abstract:

A pin tumbler lock of a first embodiment includes a shell containing top pins; and a plug, rotatable within the shell, containing standard bottom pins, and a shorter bottom pin, set back from the face of the plug. A tubular key has bitings corresponding to the standard bottom pins, and a projection corresponding to the short bottom pin. When the key is inserted, the bitings and the projection press all the bottom pins to the shear line. In a second embodiment, a lock includes a shell containing top pins and a depression; and a plug, rotatable within the shell, containing bottom pins. The depression is configured and dimensioned to receive one of the bottom pins. The depression may be opposite one of the bottom pins, and there may be one more bottom pin than top pins. When the key is inserted, the bottom pins are moved to the shear line.

Abstract:

Systems and methods are described for secure data extraction through a private network. A data extraction application may operate behind a firewall on a client system. Application state information may be automatically gathered and sent by the data extraction application upon the data extraction application being awakened at a predetermined time. A remote system outside of a firewall may determine commands to return to the data extraction application that include one or more query parameters, and then send the commands to the data extraction application. The remote system may then obtain, from the client system behind the firewall or from a data store outside of the firewall, results of the data extraction application executing a query with the provided query parameters injected therein, where the query was executed by the data extraction application with respect to one or more files located behind the firewall.
