Abstract: Computer-implemented methods for an impersonation attack detection and prevention system. Aspects include receiving a communication from a user of a communication environment. Aspects further include generating a similarity score using metadata of the communication from the user and a digital persona associated with the user in the communication environment. Aspects also include determining that the communication is a potential impersonation attack threat by determining that the similarity score is below a threshold value. Aspects include performing a security action to protect the communication environment from the potential impersonation attack threat.

Abstract: Aspects of the present disclosure relate generally to three-dimensional (3D) printing and, more particularly, to robotic support for 3D prints. For example, a computer-implemented method includes identifying, by the computing device, at least one structure in the 3D object source file requiring support for printing the at least one structure by a 3D printer; adding, by the computing device, to a 3D print file an instruction to request deployment of a support structure at a particular location to support the at least one structure by the 3D printer; and providing to the 3D printer, by the computing device, the 3D print file with the instruction to request deployment of the support structure at a particular location to support the at least one structure by the 3D printer.

Abstract: An approach is disclosed that determines that a change is needed to a remote system that is managed by a change management system that manages changes to many remote systems. A change management time window when the change is scheduled to be performed at the selected remote system is identified and a monitoring request is sent to the remote system. The monitoring request causes the remote system to run a monitoring process. The change management system receives an activity notification that was identified by the monitoring process. In response to the activity notification matching the change needed, the change scheduled at the selected remote system is canceled by the change management system.

Abstract: In a network device, unidirectional port aggregation can be used by aggregating corresponding ports that represent a single underlay next hop. A common layer 2 address (e.g., Media Access Control (MAC) address) can be shared across aggregated destination network devices to allow these network devices to accept traffic forwarded over the unidirectional multi-destination bond port. Port aggregations (e.g., “bonds”, “trunks”, etc.) are controlled by dynamic route updates propagating through a network of devices. Dynamic route updates can be implemented as part of routing protocols. The route updates can be interpreted by the network switches as including a port aggregation signal. Policy may be applied to these route updates to adjust the behavior of the port aggregation mechanism. The resulting port aggregation is installed in the forwarding table of network devices so that the corresponding prefixes resolve to the underlay next hop representing the aggregated port.

Abstract: A random password policy for a specific user associated with an entity is generated based on a global password requirement.
