Abstract: A method is disclosed for managing communication processes (N1-N4) between internal participants (A, B, C) of an internal communication network on the one hand and external participants (E) on the other hand. First a list is set up in an internal communication network that contains incoming and outgoing communication activities between the internal participants and at least one external participant as a virtual mailbox. This virtual mailbox is assigned to the at least one external participant and is set up to be invisible or inaccessible to the at least one external participant. Communications activity between an internal participant and the external participant are recognized as being associated with the external participant based upon identification that has been assigned to the external participant and can be obtained from the communication activity. Each communication activity that has been recognized as being associated with the external participant is deposited in the virtual mailbox.

Abstract: An alert notification is received and evaluated by a processor. An identifier of a subscriber who is registered to receive the first alert notification is identified. The subscriber identifier is used to select assessment rules corresponding to the first alert notification. The assessment rules are applied to the alert notification to determine whether the receipt of the alert notification satisfies a condition for taking one or more actions. If the condition is met, one or more commands are issued to effectuate the one or more actions.

Abstract: A communication application creates a team mailbox integrating messages from an email repository and documents from a content management store (CMS). The application enables an administrator to define and manage members of the team mailbox with varying privilege status for accessing the team mailbox. Content such as aggregated messages and associated documents are displayed through a unified view to standardize ease of access. The members are enabled to receive messages sent to the team mailbox by others. Policies inherited from email repository, CMS, and/or third party policy providers are enforced within the team mailbox.

Abstract: The present disclosure is directed towards systems and methods for measuring round trip time (RTT) in network devices between the device and an endpoint. A network device may be deployed as an intermediary to provide many security and visibility functions. For measuring the server side RTT between the network device and host, the intermediary device identifies the packet that has been sent by the client when it initiated the RTT measurement. The network device remembers the moment T1 when it sees this packet. The host (e.g., the server) will respond to this with a packet that contains the response. The intermediary device remembers the moment T2 when it sees this response. Server side RTT is calculated by the network device as T2?T1. For measuring the client side RTT the network device and client, the intermediary device identifies the packet that the host sends to initiate measurement of RTT.

The method includes encrypting the e-mail message using the encryption information associated with the e-mail address and transmitting the encrypted e-mail message to the mobile terminal.

Abstract: A data communication system controls Software Defined Network (SDN) Virtual Network Functions (VNFs). A Network Function Virtualization Infrastructure (NFVI) executes the SDN VNFs and responsively transfers SDN Key Performance Indicators (KPIs) to a Management and Orchestration (MANO) computer. The MANO computer processes the SDN KPIs from the NFVI to determine an NFVI task to perform for the SDN VNFs. The NFVI task comprises at least one of: SDN VNF relocation, SDN VNF off-boarding, SDN VNF darkening, SDN VNF lightening, and SDN VNF on-boarding. The MANO computer transfers NFVI control data indicating the NFVI task to the NFVI. The NFVI performs the NFVI task for the SDN VNFs responsive to the NFV control data.

Abstract: An apparatus in one embodiment comprises a processing platform including a plurality of processing devices. The processing platform is configured to communicate over one or more networks with at least one product site and a plurality of user devices/systems. The processing platform is further configured, in conjunction with transfer of a first file from a particular product of the product site to a web server of the processing platform, to extract information characterizing the transfer of the first file from the particular product of the product site, to generate in an analytics processor file transfer statistics for the first file based at least in part on the extracted information, and to provide in a file transfer portal at least one visualization of at least a portion of the file transfer statistics for the first file. The file transfer portal is accessible to one or more of the user devices/systems over the one or more networks.

Abstract: Systems, methods, and computer-readable storage media are provided for enabling client devices to remotely control a shared application. A remote control service receives a request for a shared application to be controlled by a multiple client devices. Based on this request, the client devices are enabled to remotely control the shared application. A command from one of the client devices is received at the remote control service to modify a display of the shared application without the client device receiving any sensitive information associated with the shared application or the computing device running the shared application. The command is used to cause a modification to the display of the shared application.
