Abstract: The disclosure provides an approach for certificate management for cryptographic agility. Embodiments include receiving, by a cryptographic agility system, a cryptographic request related to an application. Embodiments include selecting, by the cryptographic agility system, a cryptographic technique based on contextual information associated with the cryptographic request. Embodiments include determining, by the cryptographic agility system, based on the cryptographic request, a certificate for authenticating a key related to the cryptographic technique. Embodiments include providing, by the cryptographic agility system, the certificate to an endpoint related to the cryptographic request for use in authenticating the key.

Abstract: The disclosure provides an approach for cryptographic agility. Embodiments include establishing, by a proxy component associated with a cryptographic agility system, a first secure connection with an application. Embodiments include receiving, by the proxy component, via the first secure connection, a communication from the application directed to an endpoint. Embodiments include selecting, by the cryptographic agility system, a cryptographic technique based on contextual information related to the communication. Embodiments include establishing, by the proxy component, a second secure connection with the endpoint based on the cryptographic technique. Embodiments include transmitting, by the proxy component, a secure communication to the endpoint via the second secure connection based on the communication.

Abstract: The disclosure provides an approach for coordinating a distributed vulnerability network scan. Embodiments include sending, by a computing node, a check-in message to a scanning coordinator, the check-in message indicating attributes of the computing node. Embodiments include receiving, by the computing node, a scan configuration message from the scanning coordinator, the scan configuration message comprising: scan timing information for the computing node; and a list of scanning targets for the computing node. Embodiments include determining, by the computing node, a scanning time window based on the scan timing information for the computing node. Embodiments include scanning, by the computing node, one or more scanning targets in the list of scanning targets for the computing node during the scanning time window.

Abstract: The present disclosure provides virus like nanoparticles (VLPs), which are capable of displaying multiple copies of a SARS-CoV-2 antigen, for eliciting protective immunity against a SARS-CoV-2 infection, as well as polypeptides, compositions and methods thereof.

Abstract: A method, apparatus and computer program product for providing removal of replicated objects based on garbage collection is presented. Data objects are replicated from a primary source to a backup device. A notification is received from a garbage collection process for at least one data object replicated from the primary source to the backup device, the notification indicating that the data object should be deleted. The data object having the notification is deleted from the backup destination.
