    摘要: A system and method for facilitating BIOS integrated encryption is provided. An interface is defined between the operating system and the BIOS. The operating system employs this interface to provide BIOS code information to facilitate decryption of data that is encrypted on the system. In the pre-operating system boot phase, the BIOS employs the decryption information provided from this interface in order to decrypt the data. The decrypted information can be employed to facilitate secure rebooting of a computer system from hibernate mode and/or secure access to device(s).

    摘要: The subject disclosure generally relates to provisioning devices via a network service, such as a cloud service. A profile component can authenticate a user of a device with a cloud service, and determine services maintained by the network service that are associated with the user. A reception component can receive a request for a set of services from the device, and a services component can obtain the set of services from the network service, and provision the device based on the set of services. Provisioning the device can include downloading the services to the device, or including the services in a virtual machine executing in the network service.

    摘要: Generally described, a method, software system, and computer-readable medium are provided for efficiently collecting data this useful in developing software systems to identify and protect against malware. In accordance with one embodiment, a method for collecting data to determine whether a malware is propagating in a networking environment is provided. More specifically, the method includes receiving preliminary data sets at a server computer from a plurality of client computers that describes attributes of a potential malware. Then a determination is made regarding whether secondary data is needed to implement systems for protecting against the potential malware. If secondary data is needed, the method causes the secondary data to be collected when an additional preliminary data set is received from a client computer.

    摘要: A computer system having secured network services is presented. The computer system comprises a processor, a memory, and a network action processing module. The network action processing module processes network actions from one or more network services executing on the computer system. The computer system is further configured to execute at least network service performing network actions in conjunction with the network action processing module. Upon receiving a network action from a network service, the network action processing module determines whether the network action is a valid network action according to a network action control list. If the network action is determined to not be a valid network action, the network action is blocked. Alternatively, if the network action is determined to be a valid network action, the network action is permitted to be completed.

    摘要: Systems and methods for performing integrity verifications for computer programs to run on computing systems are provided. An integrity check is completed before passing execution control to the next level of an operating system or before allowing a program to run. The integrity check involves the use of a locally stored key to determine if a program has been modified or tampered with prior to execution. If the check shows that the program has not been altered, the program will execute and, during the boot process, allow execution control to be transferred to the next level. If, however, the check confirms that the program has been modified, the computing system does not allow the program to run.

    摘要: The present invention is directed to a system, methods, and a computer-readable medium for efficiently performing a backup of data in a networking environment. In embodiments of the present invention, a backup of a file from a local computing device to a remote computing device is performed. However, the file may not be transmitted to the remote computing device in all instances. Instead, aspects of the present invention determine whether the file is already stored on the remote computing device by another user or by an operating system and/or application program provider. In this regard, a signature of the file is generated and compared to signatures of files stored on the back end computing device. Only in instances when a match to the signature is not found is the complete file transmitted to the back end computing device and stored in a database.

    摘要: Upon successfully authenticating a client device with a server system, the client device and server system share auto-reconnect data. Upon subsequently losing and re-establishing communications with the server system, the client sends an auto-authenticate request to the server. The auto-authenticate request includes a session verifier that is based at least in part on the shared auto-reconnect data. The server validates the session verifier. If the validation is successful, the server automatically re-authenticates the client device.

    摘要: A facility for applying a software patch is described. Using an automatic patching agent, the facility receives the software patch. In response to receiving the software patch, without user intervention, the facility performs the following acts: First, the facility identifies an instance of an executable module that is currently loaded, and to which the received software patch pertains. Second, the facility applies the received software patch to the identified loaded executable module instance to modify the behavior of the identified executable module instance.
