In one embodiment, a method comprises training at least one model based at least in part on interactions between one or more users and electronic messages sent to addresses associated with the one or more users, receiving a first electronic message sent to a first address associated with a first user, analyzing the first electronic message to generate first feature data, determining one or more characteristics of the first user to generate second feature data, inputting, to the at least one model, the first feature data and the second feature data, and receiving, as output of the at least one model, data indicating whether to output, to the first user, a warning regarding the first electronic message.

Susceptibility-based warning techniques

The present technology pertains to receiving a tag associating at least one routing domain in an on-premises site with at least one virtual network in a cloud environment associated with a cloud service provider. The present technology also pertains to the automation of populating route and propagation tables with the cloud service provider.

Automated connectivity to cloud resources

Methods, systems, and non-transitory computer-readable media are provided for deploying intent-driving cloud branches. An example method can include obtaining, by one or more controllers in a software-defined network (SDN), a branch network design template for deploying a remote branch in the SDN, wherein the branch network design template defines networking settings for a plurality of services to be provisioned at the remote branch; obtaining, by the one or more controllers, a plurality of software packages for the plurality of services to be provisioned at the remote branch; and based on the branch network design template and the plurality of software packages, provisioning, by the one or more controllers, the plurality of services at the remote branch and a network connectivity of the plurality of services.

Intent-driven cloud branches

The present technology is directed to controlling and managing resources both in Software-Defined Cloud Interconnect (SDCI) providers and cloud service providers via a single network controller and further connecting virtual networks in a branch site to virtual networks in the cloud service providers. A network controller can establish a network gateway in an SDCI provider, establish a cross-connectivity between the network gateway in the SDCI provider and one or more clouds, group one or more virtual networks in the one or more clouds and one or more virtual networks in a branch site into a tag, and establish a connection between the one or more virtual networks in the one or more clouds and the one or more virtual networks in the branch site using the tag.

System and method for connecting virtual networks in a branch site to clouds

According to some embodiments, a method includes receiving, from a graphical user interface, an indication that a user has purchased licenses associated with a CNF. The method further includes sending, to a second computing system of a CNF, first instructions regarding the licenses purchased by the user. The method further includes receiving an indication that the user wishes to deploy a particular router in the CNF with a particular data connection and retrieving, from the second computing system of the CNF, a list of licenses previously purchased by the user. The method further includes automatically determining, from the list of licenses, appropriate licenses for the particular router that the user wishes to deploy in the CNF. The method further includes sending second instructions that are operable to deploy the particular router in the CNF with the particular data connection and apply the determined licenses to the deployed particular router.

Systems and methods for automatic license management of carrier neutral facility (CNF) services

The present technology discloses methods, systems, and non-transitory computer-readable storage media for establishing a redundant path connection. An example method can include configuring a software-defined wide-area network (SDWAN) tunnel between an on-premises router and a plurality of SDWAN routers; configuring a virtual layer 2 connection between the plurality of SDWAN routers and handoff locations for a virtual cloud resource (VCR) associated with at least one VCR tag, wherein a software-defined cloud infrastructure (SDCI) underlay associated with at least one SDCI provider connects to a cloud service provider (CSP) at the handoff locations; configuring a VCR connection between at least one VCR associated with the VCR tag and the handoff locations for the at least one VCR; configuring a border gateway protocol (BGP) session between the plurality of SDWAN routers and the handoff locations; and validating the SDWAN tunnel, the virtual layer 2 connection, the VCR connection, and the BGP session.

Automated and scalable multi-level redundancy for cloud infrastructure

Methods and devices are provided for efficient transmission of data between storage area networks. According to some aspects of the invention, novel methods are provided for processing data packets sent by, or received from, a storage area network. Some such aspects of the invention involve storing a packet (or a portion of a packet) in a single memory location during an encapsulation or de-encapsulation process. Instead of repeatedly copying the packet during processing, pointer information is passed along that indicates the single memory location. In some aspects of the invention, the segment boundaries of a packet are retained after data transmission. If data in the packet need to be re-transmitted, the packet is re-transmitted with the same segment boundaries.

Methods and devices for transmitting data between storage area networks

Methods and devices are provided for efficient transmission of data between storage area networks. According to some aspects of the invention, a 'slim' TCP stack is provided which eliminates the socket layer found in a conventional TCP stack, thereby eliminating socket buffers and the associated buffer-to-buffer copying. Moreover, by eliminating the socket layer, one eliminates the listen state. This condition allows TCP processing in an interrupt context instead of client/server operation with a listen state. Accordingly, some aspects of the invention provide for transmitting data between SANs in an interrupt context.
