Abstract: The present embodiments relate to detecting malware in a document management system (DMS). File stubs representing files remotely stored in a DMS can be presented in file managers at local computing devices for review/interaction on the local computing devices. A file stub for a specific file can be selected in the file manager, and a request to download the file can be provided to the DMS. The process in requesting the download of the file can be processed to determine whether the process is user-initiated or programmatic-initiated. If the process is user-initiated (e.g., initiated by a user on the local computing device), the file can be provided to the local computing device. Programmatic-initiated processes can be a result of software or malware, and mitigating actions can be taken if the request to download the file is a programmatic-initiated process.

Abstract: An approach for detecting unplanned changes in the link performance of a delay tolerant network and making automatic and immediate adjustments to the contact plans of the network to provide route revisions that will reallocate traffic load to improve network performance. Physical layer information is used to predict link performance and to adapt route computation to avoid disruption and to optimize contact performance. Prediction is based on advanced software defined radio observable phenomena such as signal to noise ratio, background noise measurements, and forward error correction bit error counts. This approach can enable a delay-tolerant network node to recompute routes and revise bundle forwarding decisions automatically in response to changes in the properties of the communication link.
