Abstract: Disclosed below is a system and method for automated penetration testing for cloud. The system and method comprises extracting metadata from the cloud, using the metadata to identify parameters and targets for penetration testing, receiving inputs related to penetration testing from a user and generating a configuration file for penetration testing as a code. Further, it comprises performing penetration testing automatically and remotely, without pentesters, based on the generated configuration file.

Abstract: The present invention discloses a system and method for automated zero trust security validation and report generation, which performs penetration testing and other testing in a zero trust security environment. The disclosed system and method analyses behavior of software applications under multiple contexts such as firewalls, user identifications, and generate validation report. Beneficially, it encapsulates most kind of security scenarios and threats that software applications require, by taking into account various factors.

Abstract: Visual cues are provided for a user who is using a telephone for interacting with an automated telephone system. A number stream is created from the digits entered by the user with the phone keypad in response to audible prompts from the automated system. The visual cues comprise graphical representations (such as icons) that are inserted into the number stream to provide a quick visual indication not only of where the entered digits are delimited, but also what they represent. Thus, the user can quickly review the visual cues—for example, while making subsequent decisions for the interaction. The visual cues are selected by locating keywords in the audible prompts and consulting a mapping data structure that identifies the visual cues to be used with particular keywords. Optionally, a textual summary of the interaction is created as well (e.g., when the interaction concludes).

Abstract: Apparatus, systems, and methods assign a permanent network address to a user identity, detect access to a network by a node associated with the user identity, generate an identifier associated with the user identity, and send the identifier to the node to enable the node to obtain replacement of a temporary network address allocated to the node, with the permanent network address. Activities may include receiving a release request from a node to release a temporary network address allocated to the node (associated with the user identity), receiving an allocation request (including the identifier) from the node to allocate a permanent network address previously assigned to the user identity, and allocating the permanent network address to the node as a replacement for the temporary network address. Additional apparatus, systems, and methods are disclosed.

Abstract: The apparatuses and methods described herein may generate an identifier associated with a user identity responsive to detecting access to a network by a node associated with the user identity. The node may be assigned a temporary network address. The identifier associated with the user identity may be sent to the node. At least one permanent network address may be allocated to the node as a replacement for the temporary network address responsive to receiving an allocation request including the identifier from the node. The at least one permanent network address may be selected from one or more permanent network addresses previously assigned to the user identity.
