Abstract: Techniques for securing containerized applications are disclosed. In some embodiments, a system, process, and/or computer program product for securing containerized applications includes detecting a new application container (e.g., an application pod); deploying a security entity (e.g., a firewall) to the application container; and monitoring all traffic to and from the application container (e.g., all layer-7 ingress, egress, and east-west traffic associated with the application container) using the security entity to enforce a policy.

Abstract: Techniques for distributed traffic steering and enforcement for security solutions are disclosed. In some embodiments, a system, process, and/or computer program product for distributed traffic steering and enforcement for security solutions includes encapsulating an original traffic header for a monitored flow from/to a host or a container; rerouting the flow from the host or the container to a security platform of a security service; performing security analysis at the security platform using the original traffic header; and rerouting the flow back to the host or the container for routing to an original destination based on the original traffic header.

Abstract: A system and method for identifying experts on social media and more specifically to systems and methods for identifying experts, topics and followers in social media networks that may be used to engage or track a wide and relevant audience for message targeting.

Abstract: A network security system is provided to secure one or more digital commerce or advertising processes for one more users, based on the presence of the one or more users in the proximity of one or more beacons. One or more coordinating components are associated with the beacons, and these provide an identifier uniquely to the one or more users. One or more security components are configured to automatically modify an identifier associated with each beacon, based on a predetermined pattern. One or more network connected devices associated with the one or more users, receive modified identifier, process one or more data elements, and communicate with a server computer or computer network service.

Abstract: A method for searching text sources including temporally-ordered data objects, such as a blog, is provided including the steps of: (i) providing access to text sources, each text source including temporally-ordered data objects; (ii) obtaining or generating a search query based on terms and time intervals; (iii) obtaining or generating time data associated with the data objects; (iv) identifying data objects based on the search query; and (v) generating popularity curves based on the frequency of data objects corresponding to one or more of the search terms in the one or more time intervals. A system and computer program for text source searching is also provided.

Abstract: Methods and systems for monitoring visits to a target site are provided. A list of one or more origin sites is embedded in the target site. A determination is made whether any entry in the list of origin sites has been previously visited.
