Abstract: Embodiments provide secure onboarding of an Information Handling System (IHS). A rendezvous service of an onboarding system is provided with an address of an onboarding service and a token that are both to be provided to the IHS. The IHS is powered for the first time upon a transfer of the IHS to an owner of the IHS. Upon the first powering of the IHS, the IHS initiates a connection with the rendezvous service of the onboarding system. The rendezvous service provides the IHS the token and the address of the onboarding service, where the onboarding service is operated on behalf of the owner. The IHS presents the token to a firewall protecting the onboarding service. In response to the presented token being recognized by the firewall, the firewall authorizes onboarding communications by the IHS with the onboarding service in order to configure the IHS for the owner.

Abstract: A segmentation server generates vulnerability exposure scores associated with workloads operating in a segmented computing environment. The segmentation server may automatically aggregate the vulnerability exposure scores in various ways to generate vulnerability exposure information representative of workloads in an administrative domain controlled by the segmentation server.

Moreover, the segmentation server can automatically generate a segmentation policy that modifies a configured segmentation strategy based on the vulnerability exposure scores to reduce exposure to certain vulnerabilities without impeding operation of the workloads.

Abstract: A command is received from a host regarding accessing an NVMe dispersed namespace in a metro cluster configuration of storage arrays. A namespace group state corresponding to the host and the port is determined and returned to the host. The namespace group state indicates whether the specific communication path between the host and the port is optimized or non-optimized. The namespace group state indicates that the communication path is non-optimized where the host is not located at the same location as the storage array, and that the communication path is optimized where the host is located at the same location as the storage array and the node of the storage array is a preferred node for processing I/O directed to the NVMe dispersed namespace from hosts located in the same location as the storage array.

Abstract: A segmentation server defines a segmentation policy and distributes the segmentation policy to be enforced by a plurality of operating system (OS) instances. The segmentation policy includes rules controlling which workloads executing on the OS instances can communicate with other workloads and controlling how the workloads may communicate. When a connection between two OS instances is requested, each OS instance provides an identity and a cryptographic proof of the identity. The OS instances each authenticate the identity received from the other OS instance, and once authenticated, determines based on the authenticated identities if the rules permit the communication. If the rules permit the communication, the OS instances obtain session parameters that enable the OS instances to validate integrity of the messages communicated between the workloads and optionally encrypt the messages.

Abstract: A managed server (MS) within an administrative domain is quarantined. The administrative domain includes multiple MSs that use management instructions to configure management modules so that the configured management modules implement an administrative domain-wide management policy that comprises a set of one or more rules. The quarantined MS is isolated from other MSs. A description of the MS is modified to indicate that the MS is quarantined, thereby specifying a description of the quarantined MS. Cached actor-sets are updated to indicate the quarantined MS's changed state, thereby specifying updated actor-sets. A determination is made regarding which updated actor-sets are relevant to an other MS, thereby specifying currently-relevant updated actor-sets. A determination is made regarding whether the currently-relevant updated actor-sets differ from actor-sets previously sent to the other MS.
