Abstract: A method for fetching a content from a web server to a client device is disclosed, using tunnel devices serving as intermediate devices. The tunnel device is selected based on an attribute, such as IP Geolocation. A tunnel bank server stores a list of available tunnels that may be used, associated with values of various attribute types. The tunnel devices initiate communication with the tunnel bank server, and stays connected to it, for allowing a communication session initiated by the tunnel bank server. Upon receiving a request from a client to a content and for specific attribute types and values, a tunnel is selected by the tunnel bank server, and is used as a tunnel for retrieving the required content from the web server, using standard protocol such as SOCKS, WebSocket or HTTP Proxy. The client only communicates with a super proxy server that manages the content fetching scheme.

Abstract: Within a domain such as a data center, host server activity monitors running on storage nodes observe meaningful commands sent by host servers to the storage nodes. Inactivity indicated by failure of any of the activity monitors to receive a meaningful command from a host server within a predetermined time limit prompts generation of a message that identifies that host server as possibly being unused. The host server activity monitors are also configured to identify as a possible unused host server any host server that is zoned for at least one of the storage nodes but not masked to any storage objects. If a quiescent host server becomes active, as indicated by resumption of sending meaningful commands to one of the storage nodes, then a message warning of a potential malicious attack is generated.

Abstract: An anomaly detection method includes collecting and preprocessing time series data every preset detection cycle; detecting an anomaly in time series data preprocessed for a current detection cycle using a deep learning model trained with an unsupervised learning scheme using features of time series data of a previous detection cycle; retraining the deep learning model by further using the time series data preprocessed for at least one detection cycle included in the current learning cycle; and detecting an anomaly in time series data collected and preprocessed for a detection cycle after the current learning cycle using the retrained deep learning model.

Abstract: Embodiments are provided for receiving media content based on the user media preferences. An example implementation includes a one or more servers receiving data representing a guest list for an upcoming event corresponding to a first user account, the guest list indicating multiple guests corresponding to respective second user accounts of a second cloud service and querying one or more streaming media services for music preferences corresponding to the multiple guests. The one or more servers receive, from the one or more streaming media services, data representing respective music preferences corresponding to the multiple guests and generate a playlist of audio tracks based on the received respective music preferences corresponding to the multiple guests. During the event, the server(s) cause the playlist to be queued in a playback queue for playback by one or more playback devices of a particular media playback system registered with the first user account.

Abstract: A computer-implemented method and a computer system for detecting and preventing distributed data exfiltration attacks. The computer system calculates historical usage statistics for a service, instances of the service, and clients requesting the instances, generates a baseline of normal usage activities for the clients and the instances based on the historical usage statistics, monitors current activities of the clients to build signatures of queries by the clients and signatures of the instances, and correlates the signatures to determine whether a data exfiltration attack is in progress. In response to determining that the data exfiltration attack is in progress, the computer system increases one or more risk scores corresponding to the data exfiltration attack. In response to determining that the one or more risk scores and an overall risk score of the service exceed a predetermined threshold, the computer system generates an alert of the data exfiltration attack.

Abstract: Network devices that are inserted inline into network links and process in-transit packets may significantly improve their packet-throughput performance by not assigning L3 IP addresses and L2 MAC addresses to their network interfaces and thereby process packets through a logical fast path that bypasses the slow path through the operating system kernel. When virtualizing such Bump-In-The-Wire (BITW) devices for deployment into clouds, the network interfaces must have L3 IP and L2 MAC addresses assigned to them. Thus, packets are processed through the slow path of a virtual BITW device, significantly reducing the performance. By adding new logic to the virtual BITW device and/or configuring proxies, addresses, subnets, and/or routing tables, a virtual BITW device can process packets through the fast path and potentially improve performance accordingly. For example, the virtual BITW device may be configured to enforce a virtual path (comprising the fast path) through the virtual BITW device.
