Abstract: The disclosed systems and methods may include a network device for evaluating, developing, and benchmarking a precision time protocol network. Additionally, the disclosed systems and methods may be directed to utilizing direct server return for content delivery network traffic. The disclosed apparatus may include a grommet and a clip, where the grommet includes an opening shaped to hold at least one cable such as a medusa cable and a groove around an outer diameter of the grommet. The disclosed apparatuses, systems, and methods may include an apparatus for organizationally distributing cables to rackmount network devices. Various other methods, systems, and computer-readable media are also disclosed.

Abstract: A novel approach is proposed for centralized administration of a multikey for a plurality of clients at a set of remote office/branch offices (ROBOs). A multikey having a set of properties, permissions, and policies is first associated with a secure item present at one or more of the ROBOs. A set of respective instances of the multikey are then generated for the ROBOs having the secure item, and the set of properties, permissions, and policies are associated with each of the respective instances of the multikey automatically. The instances of the multikey are then provided to the set of ROBOs for the encryption or decryption of the secure item present at the ROBOs.

Abstract: A host computer cloud has a processor and supports a virtual machine. An agent under control of a user is in communication with the cloud over a network. A key management server is in communication with the cloud over a network. The cloud stores the virtual machine in the form of a virtual encrypted disk on a non-volatile storage medium. When commanded by the agent, the cloud requests a disk-wrapping key from the key management server and decrypts the encrypted disk using the disk-wrapping key.
