Abstract: Embodiments relate to systems, computer readable media, devices, and computer-implemented methods for providing improved network security by receiving a network packet, applying a filter rule in a first instance of a distributed reputation database to the network packet, determining, using a network interface card with a field programmable gate array, to drop or modify the network packet based on the applying, and transmitting reputation data to a security control center that includes a second instance of the distributed reputation database, where the reputation data includes information corresponding to the network packet that was dropped or modified.

Abstract: This present disclosure relates to systems and methods for providing a data plane processing tool chain for processing packets that can use OSI layers 4 and above in the data plane without using a hypervisor. The disclosure has multiple processing capabilities, including: packet filtering, resolving DNS packets, generating packets, packet forwarding, performing DNS look up, time-stamping DNS packets, writing packets to disk, load-balancing, and protecting against DDOS attacks.

Abstract: Techniques for providing a service to registered users over a network such as the internet are disclosed. The techniques can be used to hide the service from unregistered entities. Further, the techniques can thwart certain types of so-called denial-of-service attacks.
