    Abstract: There is disclosed in one example a computing apparatus, including: a local platform including a hardware platform; a management interface to communicatively couple the local platform to a management controller; a virtualization infrastructure to operate on the hardware platform and to provide a local virtualized function; and a resiliency controller to operate on the hardware platform, and configured to: receive a resiliency policy from the management controller via the management interface, the resiliency policy including information to handle a fault in the virtualized function; detect a fault in the local virtualized function; and effect a resiliency action responsive to detecting the fault.

    Abstract: A network system includes a central processing unit and a peripheral device in electrical communication with the central processing unit. The peripheral device has at least one power input and a data input. The network system also includes an out of band controller in electrical communication with the central processing unit, the peripheral device, and an external management interface. Responsive to an identified threat, the out of band controller is configured to disable the at least one power input and the data input to the peripheral device, where the disablement indicates to the central processing unit that a hot plug event has occurred with respect to the peripheral device. The out of band controller is also configured to enable auxiliary power to the peripheral device such that the out of band controller remains in communication with the peripheral device during remediation of the identified threat.

    Abstract: Technologies for load-aware traffic steering include a compute device that includes a multi-homed network interface controller (NIC) with a plurality of NICs. The compute device determines a target virtual network function (VNF) of a plurality of VNFs to perform a processing operation on a network packet. The compute device further identifies a first steering point of a first NIC to steer the received network packet to virtual machines (VMs) associated with the target VNF and retrieves a resource utilization metric that corresponds to a usage level of a component of the compute device used by the VMs to process the network packet. Additionally, the compute device determines whether the resource utilization metric indicates a potential overload condition and provides a steering instruction to a second steering point of a second NIC that is usable to redirect the network traffic to the other VMs via the identified second steering point.

    Abstract: Technologies for cache side channel attack detection and mitigation include an analytics server and one or more monitored computing devices. The analytics server polls each computing device for analytics counter data. The computing device generates the analytics counter data using a resource manager of a processor of the computing device. The analytics counter data may include last-level cache data or memory bandwidth data. The analytics server identifies suspicious core activity based on the analytics counter data and, if identified, deploys a detection process to the computing device. The computing device executes the detection process to identify suspicious application activity. If identified, the computing device may perform one or more corrective actions. Corrective actions include limiting resource usage by a suspicious process using the resource manager of the processor. The resource manager may limit cache occupancy or memory bandwidth used by the suspicious process. Other embodiments are described and claimed.
