  • Common serverless security API
    Patent number: 11182474
    Abstract: System and method for executing a security operation for microservices/serverless function of a microservices-based/serverless application running on a physical infrastructure use a central security controller to execute the security operation for different microservices/serverless functions of the microservices-based/serverless application. Requests for the security operation are transmitted to the central security controller when communications are received at the different microservices/serverless functions of the microservices-based/serverless application. Results of the security operation are then received from the central security controller at the different microservices/serverless functions of the microservices-based/serverless application. Based on the results of the security operation, a task associated with the communications is executed at the different microservices/serverless functions.

  • Automating establishment of initial mutual trust during deployment of a virtual appliance in a managed virtual data center environment
    Patent number: 10728243
    Abstract: System and method for securely deploying a virtual machine in a data center is disclosed. In one embodiment, public keys are established between the requesting virtual machine and the deployed virtual machine, so that authentication and communication between the machines can occur using the public keys. In another embodiment, a secret private key is established between the requesting virtual machine and the deployed virtual machine using a password authenticated key exchange protocol. Authentication and communication between the machines is then established using the secret private key.
