Abstract: Technologies are disclosed for mitigating attempts to capture traffic on a network using unauthorized advertisements. Responsive to detecting an authorized advertisement for a path to a service on the network, a mitigation/orchestration service may determine a synthetic route advertisement that is configured to win back the captured traffic (e.g., by providing a route specificity that is at least equal to the unauthorized advertisement) and propagate the synthetic route advertisement from routers in the network. The won back traffic may be directed through a backbone of the network to the service.

Abstract: A system is disclosed for programming target devices with a filtered (reduced) set of route updates. The system can be divided into a backend system and a frontend system. The backend system analyzes all routes being used and generates a prefix list used for filtering. The frontend system can filter the route updates to target routers and switches to ensure that the number of prefixes installed in a forwarding table of the target routers or switches does not exceed a configured amount. Different frontend systems can coordinate to prevent deviations in the forwarding tables. More specifically, different frontend systems can synchronize with each other to ensure that a union of hot prefixes they propagate always remains under a configured prefix count. The backend system can be responsible for computing and maintaining a sorted list of prefixes, which can be at a per-site or per-service granularity.

Abstract: The present disclosure generally relates to systems and methods for utilization of network mitigation techniques in the form of null address routing to mitigate coordinated DDOS attacks. One or more computing devices can install malware code into a network device after exploiting a vulnerability of the network device. A monitoring and mitigation service can monitor network devices and detect malware code installed on the network-based service. The monitoring and mitigation service can identify the internet protocol (IP) address or any routing information regarding the computing devices that sent the malware code. Based on the identified information, the monitoring and mitigation service can identify and implement the network mitigation information in the form of null routing addresses that will cause network communications associated with the identified computing device to be terminated or otherwise not delivered to the intended network-based resources.

Abstract: Technologies are disclosed for performing context-aware routing of traffic based on an application of a series of filters and/or selectors to determine an optimal group of interfaces for servicing traffic relating to a prefix. A traffic management control plane processes input data corresponding to aggregated telemetry data for a network by determining candidate groups of interfaces to service a network prefix and applies tunable filters and/or selectors to the candidate groups to determine a targeted group to use for servicing traffic corresponding to the prefix. The determined targeted group is mapped to the prefix in a mapping result, which is then provided to an actuator interface to control network devices to inject the new mapping into the network to control traffic according to the mapping.

Abstract: The present disclosure generally relates to systems and methods for utilization of network mitigation techniques in the form of null address routing to mitigate coordinated DDOS attacks. A monitoring and mitigation service can characterize a command and control node as compromised or otherwise manipulated for purposes of generating distributed attacks. The monitoring and mitigation service can then identify network mitigation information in the form of null routing addresses that will cause network communications associated with the identified command and control node to be terminated or otherwise not delivered to the intended network-based resources. The monitoring and mitigation service can propagate the null routing address to routing components. The network mitigation information can be associated with expiration criteria for the routing components that receive and implement the network mitigation technique.

Abstract: A golf putting practice device may include a main wall. A ball bias assembly may be provided in the main wall. The ball bias assembly may include an assembly housing. A ball opening may be provided in the assembly housing. A practice golf ball may be provided in the assembly housing. The practice golf ball may be disposable in a pre-strike position in which the practice golf ball protrudes through the ball opening and a retracted strike position in which the practice golf ball is at least partially recessed in the ball opening. A ball return spring may normally bias the practice golf ball in the pre-strike position. At least one side wall may extend from the main wall. The side wall or walls may be operable to support the main wall in an upright position on the support surface.

Abstract: A bed includes a deck assembly that is supported by a base assembly. The base assembly includes a tilting actuator assembly. The base assembly is coupled to the deck assembly so that the deck assembly can be tilted from a prone position to an upright position. The base assembly and the deck assembly are coupled so that there are no easily accessible pinch points therebetween.

Abstract: A bulk bag comprises side wall panels formed from woven polypropylene fabric and arranged in a rectangular configuration. A long, narrow, strip of polypropylene fabric is sewn to the side wall panels at each of the corners to define a pocket which receives a support member. A frame having a rectangular configuration congruent with the shape of the bulk bag has legs depending therefrom which are received in the pockets to secure the bulk bag in an open configuration.

Abstract: A bulk bag liner is provided with a plurality of elongate strips and/or tabs secured to the bottom wall of the bulk bag liner at the intersection thereof with the side walls of the bulk bag liner and secured in place by lengths of heavy duty adhesive tape. The strips and/or tabs are sewn into the seam joining the bottom wall to the side walls of a bulk bag to prevent movement of the bulk bag liner relative to the bulk bag during the discharge of the contents of the bulk bag liner.
