Carrying out, over a network infrastructure, secure execution of cryptographic operations using a public/private key pair is described, wherein the private key is permanently stored on a second computing device that is remote to and accessible to the first computing device through an open network. The method includes establishing a secure connection over the open network between the first computing device and the second computing device, sending a file via the secure connection over the open network to the second computing device and instructing the second computing device to: encrypt or decrypt the file with a private key, of the public/private key pair, that is stored on the second computing device; and send the encrypted or decrypted file to the first computing device via the secure connection over the open network. The encrypted or decrypted file is then received over the open network from the second computing device.

Network arrangement for secure use of a private key remotely accessed through an open network

A networked infrastructure is described that includes a set of programmed computing nodes, each node being configured with a processor and non-transitory computer readable media including computer-executable instructions that, when executed by the processor, facilitate a social security number registry server carrying out a method that provides an individual with the ability to remotely approve or disapprove, in real-time, the use of his/her social security number (SSN) by a relying party server.

System security infrastructure facilitating protecting against fraudulent use of individual identity credentials

An asset tracking system is provided, having particular usefulness in connection with the interrogation of RFID-tagged pallets by a forklift equipped with one or more RFID reader antennas. A useful embodiment of an RFID-tagged pallet is described, along with other beneficial components of such a system.

Radio frequency identification systems for asset tracking

A spout for a liquid container, such as a gasoline container, as well as a container equipped with the spout. The spout comprises a fluid passage and a vent passage fluidically parallel with the fluid passage. The fluid passage has an inlet, an outlet, and an S-shaped portion between the inlet and outlet. The vent passage has an inlet adjacent the outlet of the fluid passage. The S-shaped portion of the fluid passage is configured to entrap a liquid therein, causing a liquid lock to form, when a liquid is dispensed through the spout and air is prevented from flowing through the vent passage. In this manner, the spout is capable of preventing the overfilling of a receptacle tank being filled with fluid dispensed from a container equipped with the spout when the fluid level in the receptacle tank blocks the flow of air into the inlet of the vent passage.

Overfill safety spout for fluid container

A power circuit for N series connected loads according to the present invention includes N transformers having primary windings connected in series across a constant current AC source and secondary windings connected in series with the N loads. N-1 conductors are coupled from a junction between the loads to a corresponding junction between the secondary windings. Failure of one of the loads resulting in an open circuit will not interrupt power to the remaining loads.
