A support service application may process a request that contains a hyperlink. The hyperlink may be examined to determine a level of risk associated with accessing a resource referred to by the hyperlink. An execution environment for processing the hyperlink may be identified. The execution environment may comprise a virtual machine drawn from a pool of virtual machines. The resource may be retrieved by a browser process operating within the context of the virtual machine, and a safe version of the resource may be rendered and made available to customer support personnel using the support service application.

Inbound link handling

Generally described, one or more aspects of the present application correspond to a content validation system. A content validation service receives visual secret request information from browser applications on user devices. The content validation service provides visual secret information to be rendered with received content. The browser application then transmits a snapshot of content to be rendered including a representation of the visual secret information to a content validation service for validation.

Content integrity processing on browser applications

Generally described, one or more aspects of the present application correspond to a content validation system. A content validation service receives visual secret request information from user devices. The content validation service provides visual secret information to be rendered with received content. The content validation service then receives a snapshot of content to be rendered including a representation of the visual secret information to validate the content.

Content integrity processing

A method and apparatus for securing access to a document stored by a document management and collaboration system are disclosed. In the method and apparatus, access credentials pertaining to a document are obtained, whereby the access credentials are usable for authenticating a request to access the document. A message including the access credentials is then sent out-of-band in relation to a notification indicating availability of the document for access. The document management and collaboration system then receives a request to access the document, whereby the request includes the access credentials, and authenticates the request based at least in part on the access credentials.

Access to documents in a document management and collaboration system

A computer-implemented method includes restricting access to customer data to certain geographic regions authorized by the customer. The restriction can be managed by associating policy information with the customer data that identifies the geographic regions authorized by the customer. Resources attempting to access the customer data can evaluate the policy information associated with the customer data with respect to the geographic location in which the resource is located to determine whether the resource is permitted to access the customer data. The restriction can also be managed by encrypting the customer data with a cryptographic key that corresponds to the customer and/or the authorized geographic regions.

Approaches for restricting access to data

An automated sample processing system having a sample input adapted to simultaneously receive a number of sample containers, a reagent input adapted to receive one or more new reagent supplies, a consumable input adapted to receive one or more new consumable supplies, a solid waste output adapted to receive used consumable supplies, a liquid waste output adapted to receive one or more used reagent supplies, and a processing center. The processing center includes a decapper adapted to remove a lid from at least one sample container, an aspirator adapted to remove a specimen from the at least one sample container and transfer the specimen to an output vessel, and a capper adapted to replace the lid on the at least one sample container. The system also includes a sample output adapted to receive the output vessel, and a user interface adapted to receive an input from the user to indicate the identity of the at least one sample container, and control at least one operation based on a physical property of the at least one sample container.

Open platform automated sample processing system

An automated method for assuring sample adequacy. The method includes providing a sample in a testing container, activating an illumination source to pass an illumination beam through the testing container and into the sample, and detecting an intensity of an emitted beam. The emitted beam includes at least a portion of the illumination beam that has been scattered by the sample. The method also includes generating a sample turbidity measurement based on the intensity of the emitted beam, and determining, based on the sample turbidity measurement, an adequacy of the sample to provide accurate results in a primary test.

Ensuring sample adequacy using turbidity light scattering techniques

Open platform hybrid manual-automated sample processing system

A sample adequacy measurement system having sample tubes and a housing having a receptacle to receive the sample tubes. The housing has sample adequacy measurement stations that each have a light source and a sample detector. The light source generates an illumination beam directed into one of the sample tubes. The sample detector is positioned along the tube, and receives at least a portion of the illumination beam scattered by turbidity in the sample tube. The detector is positioned at the end of an emitted beam path that extends in a plane that is perpendicular to the vertical direction and is oriented at a non-perpendicular angle with respect to the longitudinal axis of the sample tube unit. This reduce the likelihood that the emitted beam will pass through a damaged portion of the respective one of the sample tubes by passing the light through a protected portion of the tube.

Sample adequacy measurement system having a plurality of sample tubes and using turbidity light scattering techniques

A reagent cabinet for an automated processing apparatus. The reagent cabinet has a housing, and a drawer slidably mounted in the housing. The drawer has a lower deck adapted to receive a fluid reservoir, and an upper deck located above the lower deck and adapted to receive a fluid supply container. A supply connection hose is provided to selectively connect the fluid supply container to the fluid reservoir. A reservoir connection hose is provided to selectively connect to the fluid reservoir and to convey fluid from the fluid reservoir to a downstream location outside the cabinet. A pump is mounted on the drawer. The pump is adapted to convey fluid through either the supply connection hose or the reservoir connection hose.
