Abstract: The disclosure herein describes the processing of malware scan requests from VCIs by an anti-malware scanner (AMS) on a host device. A malware scan request is received by the AMS from a VCI, the malware scan request including script data of a script from a memory buffer of the VCI. The AMS scans the script data of the malware scan request, outside of the VCI, and determines that the script includes malware. The AMS notifies the VCI that the script includes malware, whereby the VCI is configured to prevent execution of the script or take other mitigating action. The AMS provides scanning for fileless malware to VCIs on a host device without consuming or otherwise affecting resources of the VCIs.

Abstract: Example methods and systems for score-based dynamic firewall rule enforcement in a software-defined networking (SDN) environment. One example method may comprise in response to detecting a first request to access a first resource, identifying a first score associated with the user, and a firewall rule that is applicable to the user based on information associated with the user. The firewall rule may be applied to allow access to the first resource. The method may further comprise adjusting the first score to a second score that represents a more restrictive access level compared to the first score. In response to detecting a second request to access the first resource, applying the firewall rule to block the second request based on the second score.
