Abstract: According to some embodiments, a configuration benchmark data store may include a plurality of secure configuration benchmarks. A back-end configuration management computer server may retrieve one of the secure configuration benchmarks and provision, by an orchestration engine, an initial operating system build in accordance with the retrieved secure configuration benchmark and an automation template. The back-end configuration management computer server may then apply, by a provisioning tool, enterprise-specific modifications to the initial operating system build to create an environment compliant with an enterprise standard benchmark. The back-end configuration management computer server may validate the enterprise standard benchmark via secure configuration and vulnerability checks, apply at least one configuration update to the enterprise standard benchmark to create a service instance, and then apply application code to the service instance.

Abstract: Magnetic point pole placements in a generally spherical arrangement of electromagnets forms a magnetic field. The magnetic arrangements use five regular geometric structures and geodesic triacon breakdowns of these geometric structures. Magnets are placed at the corners of each of the solids, oriented along the radii of the solid, with similar poles pointing inward. The magnets are at the same distance from structure center, and are identical in length and strength. Magnetic vector maps of fields within the structures are compared to current magnetic mirror plasma confinement fields. Non-symmetrical arrangements of magnets using regular geometric structures include specific magnets removed and new magnets added, resulting in a local monopole magnetic field and local inner field reversed mirror, depending on whether just one or both poles of the additional magnet are within the structure. Finally, the nesting of solids is presented.
