Abstract: A method for creating a training playbook to train a potential target of social engineering against an attack by an adversarial actor includes generating a training playbook based on a plurality of conversational patterns from a respective plurality of dialogs between non-human synthetic persona with the adversarial actor. A given conversational pattern of the plurality of conversational patterns comprises one or more dialog interaction elements utilized by the adversarial actor during a respective dialog of the plurality of dialogs. The method also includes configuring a dialog model for a second synthetic persona to engage in a training dialog with a target trainee to train the target trainee to detect, avoid and/or mitigate a future attack by the adversarial actor. The dialog model is configured to emulate the future attack by the adversarial actor by utilizing the training playbook. The method additionally includes outputting the training playbook.

Abstract: A satellite orbiting the Earth may perform orbit-aware routing by receiving a data packet, determining whether a final destination plane of the data packet is different from an orbital plane of the satellite, in response to determining that the final destination plane of the data packet is different from the orbital plane of the satellite, determining whether the satellite is able to communicate with one or more cross-plane neighboring satellites, selecting a neighboring satellite to receive the data packet based at least in part on whether the satellite is able to communicate with one or more cross-plane neighboring satellites, and forwarding the data packet to the neighboring satellite.

Abstract: A network security policy may be implemented at network switches as a set of active packet disposition directives. In a dynamically programmable network, the network switches can be dynamically reprogrammed with packet disposition directives. A security actuator receives flow policy directives from a number of network applications. The flow policy directives express higher-level network security policy goals, including blocking and/or redirecting network traffic. The security actuator converts a flow policy directive into one or more packet disposition directives. The packet disposition directives may include trigger rules to cause network communications to be monitored for matching trigger packets. An automated mechanism initiated by the security actuator may cause trigger packets to be forwarded to the security actuator for analysis. The security actuator may generate packet disposition directives in response to receiving the trigger packets.
