A microservice node can receive a request for information identifying a corrected physical location of a client device. The request can include raw satellite data associated with the client device. The microservice node can convert the raw satellite data to a Radio Technical Commission for Maritime Services (RTCM) format. The microservice node can determine, based on converting the raw satellite data to the RTCM format, an estimated physical location of the client device. The microservice node can receive, based on transmitting a request to a network real-time kinematics (RTK) device, corrections data associated with the estimated physical location of the client device. The microservice node can determine, using a cloud RTK engine, the corrected physical location of the client device based on the estimated physical location and corrections data. The microservice node can transmit, to the client device, the information identifying the corrected physical location of the client device.

Providing a location as a service

A microservice node can store first raw satellite data, associated with a first satellite constellation, in a first electronic file in a first data store, can combine the first electronic file and one or more second electronic files, associated with the first satellite constellation, into a first compressed electronic file, and can store the first compressed electronic file in a second data store. The first raw satellite data and second raw satellite data can be received during a particular time period. The second data store can include a second compressed electronic file that includes third raw satellite data associated with a second satellite constellation. The microservice node can receive a request from a client device, can combine the first compressed electronic file and the second compressed electronic file into a third compressed electronic file based on the request, and can transmit the third compressed electronic file to the client device.

Storing and providing raw satellite data

A method, a device, and a non-transitory storage medium each provide an object recognition service that identifies an object within an image or a video. An object is identified according to a general classification based on a domain-based inference model, and is subsequently further identified according to a sub-classification of the general classification based on another domain-based inference model. The domain-based inference models are hierarchical. The object recognition of the object may be used in support of end user services.

Object recognition based on hierarchical domain-based models

A device includes a memory and a processor. The processor is to execute the instruction to: receive, from a user device, a username of a user and a string; retrieve a first Message Authentication Code (MAC) and a salt from a database in response to receiving the username and the string; send the first MAC, the salt, and one or more parameters to a Hardware Security Module (HSM); receive, from the HSM, a message indicating whether the first MAC matches a second MAC that the HSM generates based on the one or more parameters and the salt. In addition, the processor to perform one of: authenticate the user when the message indicates that the first MAC matches the second MAC; or not authenticate the user when the message indicates that the first MAC does not match the second MAC.

Secure storage of passwords

A device may receive, from a client device, a request with a single packet authorization (SPA) packet that includes data identifying a universal client device identifier. The device may generate a shared key associated with the universal client device identifier, and may determine that the SPA packet matches a comparison message authentication code (MAC) generated based on the shared key. The device may provide, based on the SPA packet matching the comparison MAC, a MAC associated with the SPA packet to the client device to enable the client device to validate the device.

Systems and methods for utilizing quantum entropy in single packet authorization for secure network connections

A computer device may include a memory storing instructions and processor configured to execute the instructions to receive a request for quantum random numbers from a client device. The processor may be further configured to establish a secure communication channel with the client device; obtain a stream of quantum random numbers from a quantum random number generator appliance; and provide a set of quantum random numbers from the obtained stream of quantum random numbers to the client device via the established secure communication channel.

Quantum entropy distributed via software defined perimeter connections

A device may receive, from a client device, a request with a single packet authorization (SPA) packet that includes data identifying a universal client device identifier (UID), a counter, a first one-time password generated based on a first shared key, the UID, and the counter. The device may generate a second shared key associated with the UID, and may compare the SPA packet to a comparison message authentication code (MAC) generated based on the second shared key, the UID, and the counter. The device may determine whether the SPA packet matches the comparison MAC, and may validate the client device when the SPA packet matches the comparison MAC. The device may provide a MAC associated with the SPA packet to the client device to enable the client device to validate the device for a secure communication based on establishing a pre-master key with the client device.

Systems and methods validate that subscriber identity module (SIM) number of an end device connected to a network is the same number that was activated for that device. A network device in a network obtains a SIM number and a universal identifier (UID) for the end device during an activation procedure. The network device generates a unique SIM authentication code based on the SIM number, the UID, and a master key. The network device sends the unique SIM authentication code to the end device as part of the activation procedure. After activation, the network device receives, from the end device, an authentication message that includes a first one-time password (OTP), the UID, a time value, the SIM number, and the SIM authentication code. The network device generates a second OTP based on the UID, the time value, the SIM number, and the master key and validates a pairing of the end device and the SIM number when the two OTPs match.

System and method for providing authenticated identity of mobile phones

Systems and methods validate that a subscriber identity module (SIM) number of an end device connected to a network is the same number that was activated for that device. A network device obtains a SIM number and a device universal identifier (UID) during an activation procedure. The network device generates a unique SIM authentication code based on the SIM number, the UID, and a master key. The network device sends the SIM authentication code to the end device during activation. After activation, the network device receives, from the end device, an authentication message that includes a first one-time password (OTP), the UID, a time value, the SIM number, and the SIM authentication code. The network device generates a second OTP based on the UID, the time value, the SIM number, and the master key and validates pairing of the end device and the SIM number when the two OTPs match.

A computer device may include logic configured to generate a virtualized environment for a customer; receive a request to provide a route reflector service for the customer; and generate a virtual route reflector on the generated virtualized environment, in response to receiving the request to provide the route reflector service for the customer. The logic may further be configured to establish a Virtual Private Network (VPN) or secure tunnel connection between the generated virtual route reflector and a client router associated with a customer network via a cloud center access system, wherein the cloud center access system connects a cloud center system that includes the computer device to a provider network that includes the client router; and establish a Border Gateway Protocol (BGP) session between the client router and the generated virtual route reflector using the established VPN or secure tunnel connection.

Route reflector as a service

A device may receive a request to establish a connection between a first device and a second device. The request may include information identifying a network connectivity type. The device may determine one or more network devices to provision based on the network connectivity type; determine, based on the network connectivity type, provisioning parameters used to provision the one or more network devices; and provision the one or more network devices in accordance with the provisioning parameters to establish the connection between the first device and the second device.
