Communications to a server over an in-band communications channel are monitored for requests to access a file. Based on the communications, a request to access a particular file stored by the server is identified. Security and / or audit rules are identified based on the request. A determination is thereafter made that the security and / or audit rules require evaluation of classification information for contents of the requested file. Thus, a determination is made as to whether classification information for the contents of the particular file is available, such as determining whether the classification information is stored in a local classification cache. Responsive to a determination that the classification information is not available, classification information is obtained for the contents of the particular file using an out-of-band communications channel. Thereafter, processing with respect to the request to access the particular file is performed based on the obtained classification information and the one or more security and / or audit rules.

The present invention relates to a system and methodology to facilitate collaboration and communications between entities such as between automated applications, parties to a communication and / or combinations thereof. The systems and methods of the present invention include a service that supports collaboration and communication by learning predictive models that provide forecasts of one or more aspects of a users' presence and availability. Presence forecasts include a user's current or future locations at different levels of location precision and usage of different devices or applications. Availability assessments include inferences about the cost of interrupting a user in different ways and a user's current or future access to one or more communication channels. The predictive models are constructed from data collected by considering user activity and proximity from multiple devices, in addition to analysis of the content of users' calendars, the time of day, and day of week, for example. Various applications are provided that employ the presence and availability information supplied by the models in order to facilitate collaboration and communications between entities.

In one embodiment, eyewear having an activity monitoring capability is disclosed. Activity, such as motion, steps or distance, can be measured by an activity detector. The measured activity can then be used in providing activity-related information to a user of the eyewear. Advantageously, the user of the eyewear is able to easily monitor their degree of activity.

Embodiments of the invention are directed to a detection system, method and apparatus that identifies and eradicates fraudulent requests on a network. Embodiments of the detection system comprise at least one router, a server, and an activity monitoring system. The activity monitoring system comprises a route arbiter and a traffic analyzer, wherein the route arbiter monitors the activity on the router. The route arbiter continuously monitors the router and firewall device to determine if abnormal activity or traffic patterns are emerging. If a determination is made that abnormal activity or abnormal traffic patterns exist, the activity monitoring system responds by blocking the activity or redirecting the traffic.

The present invention provides a system for vehicle security, personalization, and cardiac activity monitoring of a driver wherein electrocardiography of a driver is monitored and registered which is used for identification of a person entering in the vehicle and personalization of vehicle based on user preferences thereby act as intruder detection towards vehicle security. In addition to registration the present invention also monitors cardiac activity of driver in a continuous and real time fashion without any intrusion to driver with the facility of generation of alert and making emergency call.

A method and apparatus allows for continued operation of one or more applications running at a network device with reduced delay despite crashes or failures at that device. The network device includes two or more supervisor cards for running the applications and a plurality of line cards. According to the invention, one supervisor card is designated the active supervisor card and one supervisor card is designated the standby supervisor card. As changes in state and other operating conditions take place on the active supervisor events are generating for passing at least some of this information to the standby supervisor where it is stored. Following a crash or failure of the active supervisor card, the standby becomes the newly active supervisor card. The standby supervisor performs a consistency check with the line cards and resets those that fail the check. The standby supervisor also determines which data records and state information stored at the standby supervisor are valid, and begins running the applications loaded onto the device. Those data records and state information determined by the standby supervisor to be valid are utilized by the applications in continuing their operation, while invalid data records and state information are discarded.

In one embodiment, eyewear having an activity monitoring capability is disclosed. Activity, such as motion, steps or distance, can be measured by an activity detector. The measured activity can then be used in providing activity-related information to a user of the eyewear. Advantageously, the user of the eyewear is able to easily monitor their degree of activity. For quieter operation, acoustic dampening can be employed. In other embodiments, activity monitoring capability can be provided to products other than eyewear.
