Abstract: A security platform of a data network is provided that includes security services for computing devices in communication with the data network. The security platform may apply a security policy to the computing devices when accessing the Internet via a home network (or other customer network) and when accessing the Internet via a public or third party network. To provide security services to computing devices via the home network, the security platform may communicate with a security agent application executed on the router (or other gateway device) of the home network. In addition, each of the devices identified by the security profile for the home network may be instructed or otherwise be provided a security agent application for execution on the computing devices. The security agent application may communicate with the security platform when the computing device connects to the Internet over a third party or public access point.

Abstract: Novel tools and techniques are provided for provisioning network services, and, more particularly, to methods, systems, and apparatuses for implementing intelligent network services automation. In various embodiments, a computing system might receive one or more network performance metrics of one or more networks, might receive network usage data associated with the one or more networks, and might analyze, using one or more machine learning techniques, the received one or more network performance metrics and the received network usage data to determine whether the one or more networks can be improved in terms of network efficiency or network operations. Based on a determination that the one or more networks can be improved, the computing system might dynamically reconfigure at least one of one or more network connections within the one or more networks or one or more network resources within the one or more networks.

Abstract: Novel tools and techniques are provided for implementing media content delivery. In some embodiments, a globally unique identifier (“GUID”) associated with a particular media content might be embedded in headers of packets of a transport stream of the media content. When the transport stream is received by a user device, the GUID might enable retrieval of the necessary metadata (and/or updates of metadata) for enabling presentation of the media content. Alternatively or additionally, ratings or similar information can likewise be embedded in the headers of packets or I-frames of the transport stream, which enables a user (e.g., parent) to easily block or skip objectionable content from children who may be present. Alternatively or additionally, the transport stream may be combined with auxiliary data streams containing metadata and other associated auxiliary content to create a combined transport stream, to ensure no lost or corrupted media content during transmission.

Abstract: A system for intelligent video streaming a video controller having at least one processor and non-transitory computer readable media having a set of instructions executable by the at least one processor to receive a playback request from a user device for a live stream, determine, from the playback request, whether source streaming content for the live stream is being transcoded, and allocate an available transcoder to transcode the source streaming content. The system further includes a transcoding having at least one processor and non-transitory computer readable media having a set of instructions executable by the at least one processor to join the multicast stream, retrieve the source streaming content, and transcode the source streaming content, and provide transcoded streaming content for delivery to the user device.

In various embodiments, a computing system might actively retrieve one or more network data associated with one or more networks, might classify the retrieved one or more network data, and might analyze, using one or more machine learning techniques, the retrieved one or more network data to determine whether the one or more networks can be improved, based at least in part on the classification. Based on a determination that the one or more networks can be improved, the computing system might dynamically condition the one or more networks.
