Abstract: A cloud data protection system protects cloud data of an enterprise. A protection policy for the enterprise is established by an administrator of the enterprise. The protection policy describes one or more types of cloud data protection to provide to the enterprise's cloud data. The cloud data protection system examines the protection policy to identify cloud data associated with the enterprise to access in order to implement the policy, and uses a personality object to retrieve the identified cloud data from one or more cloud services. The cloud data protection system performs one or more protection actions on the retrieved cloud data. The protection actions can include scanning the cloud data for malicious software, for compliance with a data loss prevention policy, or for data matching a discovery specification. The protection actions can also include archiving or backing up the cloud data.

Abstract: An optical network unit for managing digital subscriber line (xDSL) connections to a passive optical network. According to one embodiment, the optical network unit comprises data structures in the form of managed entities that are issued by the optical network unit for managing each of the xDSL connections. Each managed entity is associated with one or more network features and comprises one or more elements further comprising relationships to other managed entities, attributes, actions, and notifications. The passive optical network provides a data connection between the individual xDSL subscriber connections and external networks, such as the Internet and a switched telephone network.
