Appl. No.:

16/839293

Inventors:

- Armonk NY, US
MICHAEL PETER LYONS - ARLINGTON MA, US
MILES C. PEDRONE - WAPPINGERS FALLS NY, US

International Classification:

G06F 21/56
G06F 21/60
G06F 12/14

Abstract:

Embodiments are described for detecting ransomware attacks. Aspects include receiving a memory access request for a memory location. Aspects also include allowing the memory access request based on a determination that the memory location is not present in a decoy address table. Aspects further include terminating a process that made the memory access request based on a determination that the memory location is present in the decoy address table.

International Classification:

G06F 11/273
G06F 13/20

G01R 31/317

Abstract:

A test apparatus is provided for use with a mainframe and an adapter. The test apparatus includes a logical adapter interface unit and a control system. The logical adapter interface unit is interposable between the adapter and the mainframe whereby an I/O signal transmittable from the adapter and to the mainframe is transmitted through the logical adapter interface unit. The logical adapter interface unit is configured to manipulate the I/O signal. The control system is coupled to the logical adapter interface unit and the mainframe and is configured to control manipulations of the I/O signal by the logical adapter interface unit to mimic a condition of I/O traffic being run through the adapter and to log a response of the mainframe to the manipulations.

F24C 3/12
H05B 1/02

Abstract:

A stovetop assembly where on/off status of a burner is controlled, at least in part, based upon whether the body of a cookware vessel is: (i) placed on a burner to complete an electrical circuit (for example direct current conductive circuit) or magnetic circuit; or (ii) removed from the burner to break the electrical or magnetic circuit. Also, a control box with a tether line extending therefrom that controls on/off status of a burner based, at least in part, upon whether a clip at a distal end of the tether line is mechanically connected to a cookware vessel.

International Classification:

G06F 9/455
G06F 9/50

Abstract:

Embodiments include a method of organizing communications channels associated with virtual functions of a single root input and output virtualization (SR-IOV) adaptor. The method includes organizing a first coupling channel according to a first channel path identifier bound to designated communications over a first virtual function of the SR-IOV adaptor allocated according to first virtual function resources that support the first coupling channel. The method also includes enabling access to the first coupling channel to a first guest operating system. The method also includes receiving a teardown command associated with the first coupling channel. The method further includes initiating a reset of the first virtual function that deallocates the first virtual function resources associated the first virtual function.
