    ATI Technologies Patents a Hardware System That Keeps Streaming Rights Locked Inside the Chip

    Every streaming service has its own content-protection system, and right now keeping those systems from interfering with — or leaking into — each other is mostly a software problem. ATI Technologies wants to solve it in silicon instead.

    AMD's New Patent Stops a Single Broken Chip Sensor from Faking a Clean Bill of Health

    A single broken sensor quietly giving wrong answers is one of hardware security's oldest problems. Xilinx's new patent tackles it by making sure no single checker ever has the final word.

    Sony's New Patent Keeps Your Body Movement Data on Your Device

    Your body movements are surprisingly personal data. Sony is patenting a way to transmit a compressed 'fingerprint' of that motion — rather than the raw recording — so the full movement data never has to leave your device.

    IBM's New Patent Replaces CAPTCHAs With a Live Video Test to Spot Bots

    Forget ticking boxes of traffic lights — IBM's latest patent describes a live video call where an AI watches you complete physical tasks in real time, then scores whether you're a human or a bot.

    IBM's New Patent Moves Malware Scanning Off the Main Server to a Dedicated Device

    IBM wants to take the heavy lifting of malware scanning off your main server and hand it to a dedicated storage device — one built specifically to hunt for threats without slowing down everything else.

    Microsoft's New Patent Stops Corporate Security from Forgetting a Repaired Device

    Every time a technician swaps a motherboard or replaces a hard drive, the device can look like a completely different machine to corporate security systems. Microsoft's new patent tries to fix that automatically.

    Microsoft's New Patent Fights Hackers Who Hide Attacks Inside AI Chatbot Instructions

    Every time you send a message to an AI chatbot, you're also sending hidden instructions the app set up in advance — and attackers have learned how to hijack those instructions. Microsoft's new patent is aimed squarely at that problem.

    Microsoft's New Patent Watches How You Move to Decide If You've Agreed to Be Tracked

    Instead of burying a consent checkbox in a terms-of-service screen, Microsoft's new patent describes a system that watches how you physically move through a space — and treats your behavior as your answer to 'do you agree to be tracked?'

    Google's New Patent Fills Every Ad Slot on a Page Without Exposing Who You Are

    Google is patenting a way to fill every ad slot on a page in a single trip — without any one server ever seeing the full picture of who you are. It's a notable engineering answer to one of the ad industry's biggest post-cookie headaches.

    Google's New Patent Stops Attackers from Poisoning Its AI with Bad Data

    If you can figure out exactly what data an AI was trained on, you can feed it carefully crafted junk to break it. Google's new patent is designed to make that kind of attack a lot harder.

    Google's New Patent Hides Your Real Identity Every Time a Website Asks for It

    Every time you hand your email to a news site to read an article, that publisher can potentially link your identity to ad networks and data brokers. Google's new patent describes a system that intercepts that moment and replaces your real identity with a cryptographically scrambled token — one that looks different to every platform that sees it.
