Abstract: An Internet-connected device, such as a car, refrigerator, or even a laptop can use a second device, such as a cell phone, to support cryptographic operations and communication with token service providers or other processing services requiring pre-provisioned capabilities that may include cryptographic secrets. By removing the need to store personally sensitive data in “Internet of Things” (IoT) devices, a user's personal information and other sensitive financial information may be contained to a relatively small number of devices. This may help prevent theft of goods or services by IoT devices that are not always under the close control of the user.

Abstract: A system and method for automatically healing web service disruptions are disclosed. A processor establishes a communication link between a web service provider device in a web service provider side and a web service consuming device in a web service consuming side in a computer network environment. A receiver receives a request from the web service consuming device to receive a web service provided by the web service provider device. The processor detects a change in an XML document in the web service provider side which disrupts receiving the web service requested by the web service consuming device; generates stubs on the fly in response to detecting the change in the XML, document; implements the stubs that addresses the detected change in the XML document; and automatically heals web service disruptions in response to implementing the stubs.

Abstract: A system includes a processor and memory storing instructions that cause the processor to receive, from a client device, inputs defining associations between one or more control objectives and one more policies, wherein the one or more control objectives define one or more functions to be performed to comply with the one or more policies. The processor may map the one or more policies associated with the one or more control objectives to an application environment and receive, from the client device or a different client device, a change set to an application in the application environment, wherein the change set comprises one or more modifications to the application. The processor may then determine whether the change set adheres to the one or more policies and restrict implementation of the change set in response to determining that the change set does not adhere to the one more policies.

Abstract: Methods for snapshot isolation query transactions in distributed systems are performed by systems and devices. Distributed executions of queries are performed in a processing system according to an isolation level protocol for data management and data versioning across one or more data sets, one or more compute pools, etc., within a logical server via a single transaction manager that oversees the isolation semantics and data versioning. Read transactions of queries are performed lock-free via the isolation semantics, and instant rollbacks, point-in-time queries, single-phase commits in the distributed systems are also provided. Abort and clean up operations are performed based on a distributed abort protocol and a determined oldest active transaction for the system in which the single transaction manager does not track read-only transactions, and client nodes do not maintain commit tables for transactions.

Generally, a client device is granted access to a network resource based on a first reputation score assigned to the client device. The activity of the client device is monitored. Responsive to monitoring the activity of the client device, a second reputation score is determined for the client device based on the activity. The access by the client device to the network resource is then modified to be granted based on the second reputation score.
