Disclosed is a system for protecting security of a provisionable network, comprising: a network server, a network client communicatively coupled with the server, a pool of resources coupled with the server for employment by the client, a resource management system for managing the resources, and an intrusion detection system enabled to detect and respond to an intrusion in said network.

System for protecting security of a provisionable network

A method of managing utilization of network intrusion detection systems in a dynamic data center is provided. A plurality of network intrusion detection systems are provided, each being networked so that utilization of each network intrusion detection system can be based on demand for the network intrusion detection systems in the dynamic data center. A monitoring policy and a plurality of monitoring points to be monitored on a network with any of the network intrusion detection systems are received. Further, the monitoring of the monitoring points is automatically arranged using the network intrusion detection systems and the monitoring policy.

Method of managing utilization of network intrusion detection systems in a dynamic data center

An embodiment of the invention provides an apparatus and method for determining a security partition in a computer for an application. The apparatus and method can determine required system resources, security requirements, and partition rules for an application, can determine allocated system resources, security characteristics, and partitions rules for each security partition in the computer, and can identify at least one proposed security partition for the application.

Application inspection tool for determining a security partition

A present invention integrated intrusion detection method integrates intrusion detection information. In one embodiment, intrusion detection information is gathered from a plurality of different types of intrusion detection sensors. The information is processed in a manner that provides a consolidated correlation of the information. A response is assigned to the information and the response is implemented.

Integrated intrusion detection system and method

A method and system for processing concurrent events in a provisional network that comprises a plurality of dynamically allocatable nodes. Specifically, the method includes receiving notification of an event associated with a node in the provisional network. The event requires processing a new lifecycle operation to update a status of the node in the provisional network. Then, it is determined whether the node is locked for processing an active lifecycle operation that is associated with a concurrent event for the node. Processing of the new lifecycle operation is suspended until the active lifecycle operation has terminated, if the node is locked. The lock is maintained on the node after the active lifecycle operation has terminated. Thereafter, the new lifecycle operation is processed when the active lifecycle operation has terminated.

Method and system for processing concurrent events in a provisional network

A method for providing security for a network intrusion detection system in a provisionable network, the method comprises evaluating the system security of the provisionable network and applying a system lockdown in the provisionable network in accordance with the results of the evaluation.

Method for protecting security of network intrusion detection sensors

A system and method for archiving and restoring data from an operations center of a utility data center are described. The system includes a number of database systems, located in the operations center, a cell manager, located in a utility controller of the utility data center and coupled to each of the database systems through a designated port in a firewall. The system also includes a media agent coupled to each of the databases and to the cell manager. The media agent is configured to receive data from the database systems for forwarding to an archival storage device.
