In one embodiment, a data sharing platform performs a series of data operations to provide different types of data via different sharing services of the data sharing platform that are derived from data shared by a particular data owner. The data sharing platform generates tag data associated with the particular data owner for one or more of the series of data operations. The data sharing platform determines, based on the tag data, an attribution chain that links the data shared by the particular data owner to the different types of data provided via the different sharing services. The data sharing platform sends an indication of the attribution chain for display.

This disclosure describes using a dynamic proxy for securing communications between a source within a cloud environment and an application container. The techniques include intercepting traffic directed to an application container, analyzing the traffic and traffic patterns, and allowing or preventing the traffic from being delivered to the application container based on the analysis. A traffic analysis engine may determine whether the traffic is considered safe and is to be allowed to be delivered to the application container, or whether the traffic is considered unsafe and is to be prevented from being delivered to the application container, According to some configurations, the address(es) to the network interfaces (e.g., WIFI or Eth0) are abstracted to help ensure security of the application containers.

Dynamic proxy response from application container

Service onboarding can include registering an artifact of a service with a control service. Service onboarding can include assigning a credential to a service account associated with a service, wherein the credentials include a limited authorization. Service onboarding can include managing, according to the authorization, a service based on a node attribute definition maintained by an infrastructure automation framework, the framework including a component to call a representational state transfer (REST) application program interface (API) of the control service.

Service onboarding

In one embodiment, a method includes sending, to a user device, a token, wherein the token includes a token identifier and a signature based on a key and data regarding a cloud service provider, receiving, from the cloud service provider, a validation request for the user device, wherein the validation request includes the token identifier, and sending, to the cloud service provider in response to the first validation request, a validation response based on the key.
