According to one embodiment, a computerized method comprises conducting a first static scan on content within a file. Thereafter, if the first static scan did not result in the file being classified as malicious, the file is deconstructed to gain access to one or more objects within the file. A second static scan associated with the one or more objects is performed to determine whether the one or more objects are suspected of including malware. The file may then be classified as malicious based on results of the second static scan.

System, apparatus and method for classifying a file as malicious using static scanning

A Compact Peripheral Component Interconnect (CPCI) system is provided that can map PCI Industrial Computer Manufactures Group (PICMG) states describing the state of a hot-swap CPCI card into Telecommunication Management Network (TMN) plug-in unit states. Specifically, the hardware/Operating System (OS) states for the CPCI card are specified in PICMG states in accordance with the PICMG hot-swap specification. The present system identifies or defines the meaning (e.g., the definition, identification, function, and/or status) of the states on the CPCI card. The system then maps these states into intermediate states. The intermediate states are then mapped into TMN plug-in unit states (e.g., OperationalState and/or AvailiableStatus). The TMN plug-in unit states corresponding to the CPCI card will then comprise the proper identification information for the CPCI card. Accordingly, a management ware having plug-in units based on the TMN standard can now use these mapped states to manage the state (or status) of the CPCI card.

Mapping of hot-swap states to plug-in unit states

The present invention relates to a management agent that can be ran on any operating system. More specifically, the management agent of the present invention is implemented with a set of application program interfaces (APIs) that allows the management agent to be independent of operating systems. The APIs makes the management agent portable across multiple operating systems. In an embodiment of the present invention, a Compact Peripheral Component Interconnect (CPCI) computer system includes a CPCI chassis, a circuit board located within the CPCI chassis, a first central processing unit (CPU) card coupled with the circuit board. The CPCI computer system also includes a second CPU card coupled with the circuit board, a first management agent located within the first CPU card, and a second management agent located within the second CPU card. The first and second CPU cards each respectively has a first operating system and a second operating system.
