In one implementation, the disclosure provides systems and methods for generating a secure signature using a device-specific and group-specific moving target authentication protocol. According to one implementation, generating the secure signature entails determining a state of a first device in association with a select time interval. The state of the first device is defined by one or more time-variable characteristics of the first device. The device computes an output for a signing function that depends upon the determined state of the first device associated with the first time interval.

Moving target authentication protocols

Systems and methods for improving efficiency in performing service actions for one or more storage systems are described. In one embodiment, the systems and methods include detecting a service event on at least one of one or more storage systems based at least in part on monitoring events on the one or more storage systems, creating a service action based at least in part on detecting the service event, adding the service action to a list of pending service actions associated with the one or more storage systems, and assigning one or more service actions from the list of pending service actions to a service window. In some cases, each service event in the list of pending service events represents an adverse condition awaiting repair in relation to at least one of the one or more storage systems.
