Making a trust decision is disclosed. One or more members of a social trust network are polled for information associated with a trust decision about a computing environment. The information includes information collected automatically with respect to activities of one or more of the one or more members of the social trust network. At least one action is taken based at least in part on the information.

Application usage is profiled based on application streaming. Code pages of multiple applications are streamed from a server to multiple client computers (endpoints) for execution. The streaming of the code pages is monitored, and usage data is collected such as which pages are streamed to which endpoints, under what circumstances and when. By referencing the streamed code pages and the underlying source code, the code pages are mapped (at least approximately) to corresponding application features. The collected usage data usage and the relevant mapping are analyzed, to create application usage profile data for streamed applications. The application usage profile data can include such information as how often, when, where and by whom application components are being executed, as well as which components cause errors, are most popular, confuse users, etc.

Providing security for a network is disclosed. Network traffic associated with a host is monitored. If an activity pattern associated with a configuration change of the host is observed, access by the host to the network is restricted based at least in part on the observed activity pattern.

A DRM server parses a request received from a client for a content identifier and client classification information. The content identifier identifies the requested content and client classification information describes the capabilities of the client. The DRM server determines a policy for the requested content. The policy specifies rules for determining access rights for the content responsive to the capabilities of the client. The DRM server determines access rights for the requested content responsive to the capabilities of the client and the policy. The DRM manager then provides the requested content and the determined access rights to the client.
摘要:
A computer-implemented method for prioritizing virtual machine tasks may include receiving a request to perform a first task from a virtual machine. The request may include information relevant to determining a priority of the task. The method may include determining the priority of the task based on the information. The method may further include scheduling the first task based on the priority of the task. The method may include selecting the first task for execution based on the scheduling. The method may include notifying the virtual machine that the first task has been selected for execution. Various related methods, computer-readable media, and systems are also disclosed.
摘要:
A computer-implemented method for defragmenting virtual machine prefetch data. The method may include obtaining prefetch information associated with prefetch data of a virtual machine. The method may also include defragmenting, based on the prefetch information, the prefetch data on physical storage. The prefetch information may include a starting location and length of the prefetch data on a virtual disk. The prefetch information may include a geometry specification of the virtual disk. Defragmenting on physical storage may include placing the prefetch data contiguously on physical storage, placing the prefetch data in a fast-access segment of physical storage, and/or ordering the prefetch data according to the order in which it is accessed at system or application startup.
摘要:
A method, system and computer-readable medium for securing access between a mobile computing device and a network computer is described. The method comprises upon a connection by the mobile computing device to a network or a device, recording the connection in a history database and processing the history database to assign a risk level to the mobile computing device. The system comprises the mobile computing device comprising a connection history collection agent for collecting information about a computing environment and the host computer comprising wireless environment data derived from the collected information where the host computer uses the wireless environment data to grant or deny a connection to the mobile computing device.
摘要:
Techniques are disclosed for implementing dynamic endpoint management. In accordance with one embodiment, whenever an endpoint joins a managed network for the first time, or rejoins that network, a local security module submits a list of applications (e.g., all or incremental) to a security server. The server validates the list and sends back a rule set (e.g., allow/block rules and/or required application security settings) for those applications. If the server has no information for a given application, it may further subscribe to content from a content provider or service. When the server is queried regarding an unknown application, the server sends a query to the service provider to obtain a trust rating for that unknown application. The trust rating can then be used to generate a rule set for the unknown application. Functionality can be shifted from server to client, and vice-versa if so desired.
摘要:
Intentionally dropping packets to prevent unauthorized transfer of data through multimedia tunnels is disclosed. A stream of media transport protocol packets is received. One or more packets are dropped intentionally from the stream to render unusable at the destination a file or other data transported through the multimedia tunnel without authorization.
