    Abstract: A server may receive, from a virtual private network (VPN) client of a client device, a message which indicates a request for a policy rule for communications with a network-based application (e.g. provided via a data center or cloud computing services). The server may obtain source attributes of the client device and a user thereof based on source identifiers, and destination attributes of the application based on a destination identifier, and select a policy rule associated with the attributes (e.g. indicative of security, risk, cost, load, and/or business function). The server may send a message which indicates a response and includes the policy rule for application at the VPN client. The policy rule may indicate a policy action for selecting a path, of a plurality of paths, identified by a path identifier, and specify conditions such as a location and/or a date, day, and/or time of the client device.

    Abstract: In one embodiment, a gateway device receives, from a centralized broker device, a data-access policy for a given computer network, the data-access policy defining which of one or more accessing entities are granted access to specific elements of data within the given computer network. When the gateway device then receives, from a particular accessing entity, a request for one or more particular elements of data from within the given computer network, it may determine, based on the data-access policy, whether the particular accessing entity has been granted access to each of the one or more particular elements of data of the request. As such, the gateway device may prevent access for the particular accessing entity to any of the one or more particular elements of the data request to which the particular accessing entity has not been granted access.

    Abstract: In one embodiment, a processor receives data indicative of a plurality of conversations involving a primary user. The processor identifies a subset of the plurality of conversations that are regarding a particular topic. The processor adds a conversation to the subset based on a match between one or more keywords in the conversation matching a list of keywords associated with the particular topic. The processor uses a machine learning-based model to identify one or more context characteristics of the conversations in the identified subset. The processor updates the subset of conversations by adding at least one of the conversations to the subset based on the at least one conversation having at least one context characteristic identified by the machine learning-based model. The processor provides data indicative of the updated subset of conversations to a user interface for review by the primary user.
