Abstract: An enclave manager of a network enclave obtains a request to retrieve configuration information and state information corresponding to compute devices and network devices comprising a network enclave. The request specifies a set of parameters of the configuration information and the state information usable to generate a response to the request. The enclave manager evaluates the compute devices, the network devices, and network connections among these devices within the network enclave to obtain the configuration information and the state information. Based on the configuration information and the state information, the enclave manager determines whether the network enclave is trustworthy. Based on the parameters of the request, the enclave manager generates a response indicating a summary that is used to identify the trustworthiness of the network enclave.

Abstract: Visualization within a spherical space is provided. The method comprises capturing a number of images from a common three-point coordinate capture location and creating a sphere of projected coordinates based on the capture location. Three-point coordinates of reference locations corresponding to the images are translated into spherical coordinates on the sphere. The spherical coordinates of the reference locations are translated into tour scene coordinates. The tour scene coordinates of the reference locations are then translated into equirectangular Cartesian coordinates. The images are displayed in a user interface according to the reference locations from the perspective of the capture location.
