TLDR
In this article, a partitioning microkernel (PMK) or equivalent means for imposing memory partitioning and isolation prior to exposing data to a target operating system or process, and conducts continuing memory management whereby data is validated by security checks before or between sequential processing steps.Abstract:
A computing system contains and uses a partitioning microkernel (PMK) or equivalent means for imposing memory partitioning and isolation prior to exposing data to a target operating system or process, and conducts continuing memory management whereby data is validated by security checks before or between sequential processing steps. The PMK may be used in conjunction with an Object Request Broker.read more

Protected device management
TL;DR: A method, apparatus, system, and computer program product for management of storage devices protected by encryption, user authentication, and password protection and auditing schemes in virtualized and non-virtualized environments is described in this paper.
Patent
Network browser based virus detection
TL;DR: In this article, a malware detection manager defines and employs a quarantine bin, which is an isolated and secure memory space or directory for temporary placement of file packets during the file transmission while malware detection can commence.
Patent
Trusted operating environment for malware detection
TL;DR: In this article, the authors describe techniques and apparatuses for scanning a computing device for malware on a removable data storage medium using a trusted operating system and a trusted antivirus tool.
Patent
Hibernation or suspend using a non-volatile-memory device
TL;DR: In this paper, techniques for using a nonvolatile memory device such as flash memory to store memory data during hibernation or suspend are described, and they show that hard drives and/or data are safer, and less power may be used.
Patent
Communications device with a plurality of processors and compatibility synchronization module for processor upgrades and related method
TL;DR: In this article, a compatibility synchronization module has been proposed for verifying if the software version for a processor is compatible with other software versions at other processors and instructs a respective device subsystem to revert back to a compatible software version within a respective processor or prevent any incompatible software updates within the processor.

Application-layer security method and system
TL;DR: In this paper, the authors present an application layer security method and system to secure trusted computer applications from executing out of their intended and authorized scope caused by illegal or harmful operation requests received from a distrusted environment.
Patent
Method and apparatus for enhancing security in a wireless network using distance measurement techniques
TL;DR: In this paper, a method and apparatus for enhancing security in a wireless network using distance measurement techniques provides an additional layer of security and privacy in wireless communications, where a distance measurement or location-finding is performed between two devices by transmitting and receiving one or more signals and computing a distance between the two devices or a location of a connecting device.
Patent
Method and apparatus for providing secure processing and data storage for a wireless communication device
TL;DR: In this article, a secure processor and memory are implemented within a single integrated circuit for enhanced security in a single-input single-output (SIMO) system. But the secure processor can be used to store program instructions and parameters used for secure processing.
