Abstract: Example methods and systems for security threat analysis are described. One example may involve a first computer system configuring a test packet that includes malicious content for forwarding along a network path between (a) a first network element that is connected with a first virtualized computing instance and (b) a second network element that is connected with a second virtualized computing instance. The test packet may be injected at the first network element and forwarded towards the second network element. In response to a security checkpoint detecting the test packet, the security checkpoint may apply one or more security policies on the test packet; and generate and send report information towards a management entity. The report information may indicate whether the malicious content in the test packet is detectable based on the one or more security policies.

Abstract: A system for allocating resources to demand requests is set forth. The system is configured to identify a set of resource requirements based on a demand request. The system is also configured to choose a resource that satisfies at least one of the identified resource requirements. The system is further configured to allocate the selected resource to the demand request based on whether a client can satisfy a locking prerequisite associated with the selected resource.
