Abstract: Approaches for combining different information to be transmitted into different slices of a data packet and/or encrypting the slices using different cryptographic schemes for secure transmission of the information are disclosed. In some implementations, first information and second information may be received. A first data slice representing a portion of the first information may be generated based on a first cryptographic scheme. A second data slice representing a portion of the second information may be generated based on a second cryptographic scheme different than the first cryptographic scheme. A first header may be generated such that the first header may specify the first cryptographic scheme for the first data slice and the second cryptographic scheme for the second data slice. A first data packet may be generated such that the first data packet may include the first header, the first data slice, and the second data slice.

Abstract: Approaches for replacing software components executing in a runtime environment with corresponding known-good software components are disclosed. In some implementations, at least a first event indicating that at least a first software component executing in the runtime environment should be replaced may be determined. The first event may be determined without respect to whether the first software component has been compromised or potentially compromised. At least a second software component corresponding to the first software component may be obtained from a component repository that is separate from the runtime environment. The first software component may be replaced with the second software component based on the first event such that the second software component is available for use in the runtime environment after the first event and the first software component is no longer available for use in the runtime environment after the first event.
