    Google Patents Technology to Pick Winning Ads Without Exposing User Data

    Every time a webpage loads, an auction determines which ad you see — and that auction typically requires sharing data about you. Google is patenting a system that runs the auction without any single server ever seeing the full picture.

    New Patent Teaches AI to Map Connections Between Malicious Web Apps

    Most malware detectors look at apps one at a time. Microsoft's new patent wants to build a relationship map — catching threats by noticing that two sketchy apps share the same suspicious DNA.

    Samsung Patents a Storage System That Baits and Slows Ransomware Attacks

    What if your hard drive could catch ransomware in the act — not by recognizing it, but by letting it stumble into a trap? That's the idea behind Samsung's latest storage patent.

    Samsung Patents a Way to Run AI Queries Without the Server Ever Seeing Your Data

    What if you could ask an AI a question and the server answering it never actually saw what you asked? That's the core idea behind Samsung's latest patent — and it's a surprisingly elegant solution to one of AI's most persistent privacy problems.

    IBM Patents a System That Scrubs Sensitive Chat History Before New Users Can See It

    Ever scrambled to delete a message before someone with the wrong clearance level joined a work call? IBM is patenting a system that does that automatically — before the new person even arrives.

    Qualcomm Patents a Phone That Fakes Out Wireless Surveillance Sensors

    Your phone could one day detect that someone nearby is using radio waves to track your movements — and automatically lie to them about where you are and what you're doing.

    Nvidia Patents a Way to Lock Encryption Keys Where Apps Can Never Reach Them

    Nvidia is filing patents around a cryptographic architecture where an app can encrypt or decrypt data without ever seeing — or even knowing — the actual key it's using. The whole key management layer lives inside a hardware-isolated environment the app can't touch.

    Microsoft's New Patent Wants to Connect Every Known Hacker, Malware, and Attack Into One AI-Readable Map

    Imagine every known hacker group, malware strain, and attack technique connected in a single web — and an AI that can read that web and explain what any one node means in plain English. That's essentially what Microsoft is building here.

    Google's New Patent Stops Apps from Hearing Your Mic Until You Actually Trigger Them

    Google is patenting a way to let your phone listen for a trigger word or sound — without giving any app access to the raw audio until something actually happens. It's a privacy-first architecture for always-on sensor features.

    Microsoft Patents an AI That Shuts Down Cyberattacks Without Waiting for a Human

    Microsoft is patenting an AI model that doesn't just flag cyberattacks — it automatically disables the accounts, devices, and services involved, then uses what it learned to get better at stopping the next one.

    Microsoft's New Patent Hunts Down Aging Code Before Attackers Find It

    Old, unmaintained code is one of the most reliable ways for attackers to get a foothold in cloud infrastructure. Microsoft is patenting a system that hunts down that code automatically — and politely forces someone to do something about it.

    Amazon Patents Delivery Labels That Hide Your Address From the Package

    What if your name and home address never appeared on a shipping label at all — and only revealed themselves to the delivery driver's device when the truck was already close to your door? That's the core idea in this Amazon patent.
