    Microsoft Patents a System for Vetting the Documents That Feed Your AI

    When you feed an AI a document to answer questions from, how do you know that document hasn't been tampered with? Microsoft is filing patents to solve exactly that problem.

    Microsoft Patents a Registration-Based System to Lock App Tokens to Specific Instances

    What if an authentication token could only ever work inside the exact app instance that requested it — and nowhere else? That's the core idea in Microsoft's latest authentication patent.

    Microsoft Patents Automatic Runtime Hardening via Static API Call Mapping

    What if your build pipeline could automatically figure out exactly which system calls your app is allowed to make — and then enforce that at runtime, no extra developer work required? That's what Microsoft is filing patents around.

    Microsoft Patents a Detection Engine for Bot-Created Cloud Tenants

    Bots don't just spam social media — they spin up fake cloud accounts to abuse free tiers, launder compute, or stage attacks. Microsoft's new patent describes a two-stage detection engine that catches them by looking at the fingerprints tenants leave behind, not just the accounts themselves.

    Nvidia Patents a Priority-Aware CAN Bus Authentication System for Autonomous Vehicles

    Every sensor reading, brake command, and steering input in an autonomous vehicle travels over a CAN bus — a decades-old network protocol with almost no built-in security. Nvidia's new patent wants to fix that without slowing anything down.

    Microsoft Patents a Capability-Based Gatekeeper for Human Presence Sensors

    Modern Windows PCs increasingly ship with sensors that detect whether a human is sitting in front of them — and Microsoft is now patenting a system to make sure only the right apps can query that sensor.

    Microsoft Patents a File Protection System That Follows Files Across Devices

    What if your file's access rules traveled with it — no matter where it ended up? Microsoft is patenting a system that bakes permissions directly into the file itself, so even a copy on someone else's machine knows who's allowed to open it.

    Amazon Patents a Way to Track the Original Identity Behind Assumed AWS Roles

    When an AWS user or service assumes a new IAM role, the original identity can get lost in the audit trail. Amazon's new patent wants to make sure it never disappears.

    Samsung Files Patent for a Post-Quantum Signature Verification Test System

    As quantum computing threatens traditional cryptography, Samsung is patenting a way to rigorously test whether its memory devices can correctly verify post-quantum digital signatures — before those devices ship.

    Samsung Patents Per-Host Memory Encryption for CXL Devices

    As CXL memory pooling lets multiple servers share the same physical RAM, Samsung is filing patents to make sure one host can never read another's data — even if they're neighbors on the same stick.

    IBM Patents a Real-Time Privilege Control System for Privileged Containers

    Privileged containers are one of the most dangerous attack surfaces in cloud infrastructure — they can do almost anything to the host system if left unchecked. IBM's new patent describes a real-time gate that only lets containers exercise elevated powers when they need them, and yanks those powers the moment something looks wrong.

    IBM Patents a Safety Net That Catches Destructive AI-Generated Code Before It Runs

    AI coding assistants are great at writing code fast — but they can also write code that quietly deletes data or corrupts system state. IBM's new patent tackles that problem by building a sandbox-and-rollback layer directly into the LLM code generation pipeline.
