Abstract: Embodiments provide a computer implemented method in a data processing comprising a processor and a memory including instructions, which are executed by the processor to cause the processor to implement the method of terminating a connection between a database server and a database client through an enforcement point, the method including: continuously monitoring, by the enforcement point, information related to a connection to a database, and parsing one or more queries; continuously comparing, by the enforcement point, the information with a predefined plurality of rules, and checking whether there is a rule violation; if there is a rule violation, assembling, by the enforcement point, a termination packet including an error message indicative of the rule violation; sending, by the enforcement point, the termination packet to the database client; and terminating, by the enforcement point, a connection between the enforcement point and the database client.

Abstract: Compounds of Formula (I), racemates, enantiomers, diastereomers thereof or pharmaceutical acceptable salts thereof, or pharmaceutical compositions containing the compounds, racemates, enantiomers, diastereomers thereof are disclosed. These compounds have GPR40 agonist activity and are capable of modulating blood glucose levels and glucose-dependent insulin secretion mechanism, and, thus, exhibit excellent glucose lowering efficacy without the risk of hypoglycemia. These compounds could be used in preventing and/or treating type 2 diabetes through adequate control of blood glucose.

The compounds according to Formula (I) are, as GPR40 agonists, available for oral administration with glucose-dependent insulin secretion mechanism, which exhibit excellent glucose lowering efficacy without the risk of hypoglycemia. Thus, the compounds and/or pharmaceutical compositions comprising the compounds as effective components are useful in treating and/or preventing symptoms of type 2 diabetes through adequate control of blood glucose.

Abstract: A network-based appliance includes a mechanism to set-up and selectively use an “out-of-band” encryption channel. The mechanism comprises a packet parser, and a packet dispatcher, and it is integrated with an existing network layer stack that typically is not visible to host applications. In lieu of simply encrypting all data it receives, the mechanism instead analyzes one or more attributes, e.g., protocol type, application type, current encryption strength, content payload, etc., associated with a packet transmission to determine whether further encryption is required. The evaluation may include a deep packet inspection (DPI) when the information at the network layer (e.g., IP address, port number, etc.) is not sufficient to determine if the payload in the packet needs to be further encrypted. Based on the result of the analysis, packets are dispatched to the encryption channel as and when necessary.

Abstract: Embodiments can provide a computer implemented method in a data processing system comprising a processor and a memory comprising instructions, which are executed by the processor to cause the processor to implement a system for network protection, the method comprising determining, by the processor, if an incoming connection comprising one or more packets has a false latency larger than a trigger latency; determining, by the processor, if an attack is currently in progress; and if the attack is in progress, injecting, by the processor, at least one of the one or more packets of the incoming connection or one or more packets of an outgoing connection with a false latency.

Abstract: An example operation may include one or more of receiving a set of structured query language (SQL) queries from one or more software applications, generating a set of SQL syntax trees that correspond to the set of SQL queries, identifying a unique subset of SQL syntax trees among the generated set of SQL syntax trees based on previously obtained SQL syntax trees, and transmitting the unique subset of SQL syntax trees to a computing system.

Abstract: A source code analysis tool is augmented to support rule-based analysis of code to attempt to identify certain lexical information indicative of hard-coded secret (e.g., password) support in the code. The tool takes the source code as input, parses the content with a lexical analyzer based on language grammar, and processes the resulting data through preferably a pair of rule-based engines. Preferably, one engine is configured to identify variables explicitly intended to be used as a hard-coded secret, and the other engine is configured to identify data strings that could potentially support such a secret. The outputs of these rules engines are consolidated and evaluated to identify a likelihood that the code under examination includes support for a hard-coded secret. The result is then provided to the developer for further action to address any potential security vulnerability identified by the analysis.
