Aethlon Medical (NASDAQ:OTCQB: AEMD) Receives Notice of DARPA Contract Renewal

Breaking Biodefense News: Aethlon Medical (NASDAQ:OTCQB: AEMD) Receives Notice of DARPA Contract Renewal

SAN DIEGO - September 22, 2014 (Investorideas.com newswire) Aethlon Medical, Inc. (NASDAQ:OTCBB:AEMD), the pioneer in developing targeted therapeutic devices to address infectious disease, cancer and other life-threatening conditions, disclosed today that the Defense Advanced Research Projects Agency (DARPA) has informed the Company that it plans to exercise an option to proceed with year four of a five-year $5.9 million contract that was awarded to Aethlon on September 30, 2011 under DARPA's Dialysis-Like Therapeutics (DLT) program.

The fourth year of Aethlon's DLT contract contains three milestones representing a potential of $669,292 in revenue opportunity. To date, Aethlon has invoiced $4,252,037 to DARPA for achieving twenty of twenty-three milestone objectives targeted in the first three years of the DLT program.

The goal of the Dialysis-Like Therapeutics (DLT) program is to develop a portable device that removes "dirty" blood from the body, separates harmful agents, and returns "clean" blood to the body in a manner similar to dialysis treatment of kidney failure. The resulting device could decrease the morbidity and mortality of sepsis, thereby saving thousands of lives and billions of dollars in the United States annually.

To do so, the DLT program seeks to develop multiple component technologies, integrate them into a portable device, and rigorously validate device effectiveness. Key technical areas and representative technical approaches include:
·        Persistent interrogation of the entire blood volume via sensing technologies such as surface enhanced Raman spectroscopy (SERS). This capability may enable early identification of bacteria, viruses, toxins, and cytokines.
·        High-flow fluid manipulation without the use of anticoagulants via novel biocompatible/biomimetic architectures and advanced surface functionalization chemistries.
·        Continuous removal of pathogens, toxins, activated cells, exosomes, and cytokines via a diverse suite of "label-free" technologies such as synthetic mannose binding lectins and selective adsorption cartridges.
·        Closed-loop therapy with system feedback to monitor and redirect patient state based on conditional probability and reduced order techniques.

The integration and validation of these component technologies focuses on establishing a path to FDA Investigational Device Exemption (IDE) before the completion of the program. From there, the device will be available for transition to military medical commands and clinical trials required for final regulatory approval.

In addition to treating sepsis, the DLT device represents a flexible platform that may be configured to combat engineered and evolving pathogens.

NXT-ID (OTCQB: NXTD) Patents Offline Local Identity Validation and Fraud Prevention System

Breaking Security News: NXT-ID (OTCQB: NXTD) Patents Offline Local Identity Validation and Fraud Prevention System

SHELTON, CT - September 4, 2014 (Investorideas.com Newswire) NXT-ID, Inc., (OTCQB: NXTD), a biometric authentication company focused on the growing mobile commerce market, announced today that it has submitted a patent application for a method to locally verify identity. This invention represents another first for NXT-ID with the world's first disconnected identity validation system, and another key feature to securing NXT-ID's Wocket® smart wallet.

"This invention is very timely in the face of continued breaches of data and privacy." stated Gino Pereira, CEO of NXT-ID. "In the last two days we have news of intrusions on personal data of celebrities on iCloud and a potentially large data breach at Home Depot. We continue to push the envelope with new, exciting technologies that protect an individual's privacy by keeping information off the cloud or a network."

"This invention provides security without sacrificing privacy," says David Tunnell, CTO of NXT-ID. "Local identity validation ensures financial accounts and cards that are added to Wocket® smart wallet belong to the owner of that Wocket®. We wanted a way for users to securely add their cards without having to sacrifice their privacy to some online background check. This technology is a key enabler of emerging smart wallet technology to reduce fraud."

Typically, identity verification is managed via online cloud services. The validation process requires users' private information to be not only sent up to the service, but to be requested from various data sources and sent back down the client-side application. Man-in-the-middle attacks can intercept this information either going to or coming back from the service, even altering the information to spoof it. Furthermore the data being used to verify the identity is known by more than one source and is therefore susceptive to social engineering hacks and data mining. Without cutting off this constant stream of private information being sent to and from, online validation will always have significant issue with both security and privacy.

The patent describes methods to verify the owner of a card or financial account prior to allowing enrollment into a smart wallet. Under this invention, individuals, accounts, devices and even financial records may be authenticated locally without passing private information over a cloud connection and running a background check. The system is even capable of dynamically generating challenge questions and secret answers from locally known values to provide the user with a standard validation experience.

Combining this technology with NXT-ID's Dynamic Pairing Technology brings an entirely new level of security and authentication to smart wallets and wearable technology.


Wocket™ is a smart wallet, the next evolution following the smart phone and smart watch. NXT-ID is introducing its innovative, patent-pending Wocket™ as the next natural step in the evolution of smart devices. Wocket™ is a next generation smart wallet designed to protect your identity and replace all the cards in your wallet, with no smart phone required.
