The certificate management microservice receives a service request from an other microservice of the CNF, and in response to the service request, sends certificate information to the other microservice, the certificate information being usable by the other microservice to read the certificate key from the secure storage element.

Abstract: A method of non-mechanically remediating damage to a wellbore comprising a plurality of fracture stages is disclosed. A total treatment volume is calculated based on the plurality of fracture stages, the wellbore space, and either the production tubing or the annulus of the wellbore. The fracture stages of the wellbore are then divided into a plurality of chemical stages. The wellbore is pre-flushed, and each chemical stage is treated and isolated in order of depth by a volume of remediation chemical and volume of diverter. A post-treatment flush completes the remediation process and after a shut-in period, the well's production is substantially improved.

Abstract: As described herein, a system, method, and computer program are provided for synthesizing user transactional data for de-identifying sensitive information. In use, transactional data of a plurality of users is identified. Additionally, the plurality of users are clustered based on the transactional data, to form groups of users having transactional data representing similar transactional behavior. Further, synthesized transactional data is generated for the users in each group by: identifying a subset of the transactional data that corresponds to the users in each group, shuffling the transactional data in the subset across the users in each group, and perturbing portions of the shuffled transactional data.
