Concepts and technologies are disclosed herein for decoupling hardware and software components of network security devices to provide security software as a service in a distributed computing environment. A computer system includes a processor that can execute computer-executable instructions to perform various operations. The processor can perform operations to provide security services to one or more customer platforms. The operations can include receiving a network security software component from a security service provider, and deploying the network security software component within a distributed computing environment so that the network security software component can be executed by a computing resource of the distributed computing environment to provide a security service to the customer platform(s). The network security software component includes a software component that has been decoupled from a hardware component of a network security device by the security service provider.

Decoupling hardware and software components of network security devices to provide security software as a service in a distributed computing environment

A method and system, including a device having a processor and instructions stored on a non-transitory computer readable medium. In the system and method, data is identified and collected that is required to simulate a geographical area. The data is input into a simulation engine that runs a simulation of the geographical area. A scenario is identified to apply to the simulation, wherein the scenario is identified through employment on non-simulated data. The scenario is applied to the simulation by revising the data that is input to the simulation engine.

Method and apparatus for simulating events on smart cities

A computer system and method provides cloud-based network security software as a service in a distributed computing environment. A computer system executing on a portion of hardware computing resources associated with the distributed computing environment receives a security service request from a customer platform device external to the distributed computing environment, the request identifying a customer platform asset within the distributed computing environment and instructing that a security service selected by the customer platform device be provided to the identified customer platform asset. In response to receiving the security service request, a network security software component associated with the selected security service on one or more virtual machines within the distributed computing environment is executed to provide the selected security service to the identified customer platform asset. The one or more virtual machines are deployed on a set of the hardware computing resources associated with the distributed computing environment.

Concepts and technologies are disclosed for an identity vault service. According to one aspect disclosed herein, an identity vault service system can collect self-attested and operator-attested user information. The operator-attested user information can be associated with a user and a mobile telecommunications service provided to the user by a mobile network operator. The system can create a trusted digital identity of the user based upon the self-attested and operator-attested user information. The system can receive an identity access request from a third party. The request can be for access to at least a portion of the trusted digital identity for use by the third party in performance of an act. The system can send a consent request to a user device and can receive a consent response that indicates whether the user permits access to at least the portion of the trusted digital identity of the user.

Identity vault service

A method includes receiving, at a control node of a cloud computing network, a first enterprise policy specific to the first enterprise and a second enterprise policy specific to the second enterprise, and managing communications between at least one user device of the first enterprise and the at least one enterprise application hosted on behalf of the first enterprise based on the first enterprise policy. The method also includes managing communications between at least one user device of the second enterprise and the at least one enterprise application hosted on behalf of the second enterprise based on the second enterprise policy.

End-to-end secure cloud computing

A method that incorporates teachings of the subject disclosure may include, for example, receiving a packet indicative of a request for a number of video content items. The video content items are identified based on a network traffic flow characteristic associated with the packet and a popularity level is determined associated with each video content item of the number of video content items. The popularity level for each of the video content items is compared to a popularity threshold, and a portion of a video content item is displayed responsive to the popularity level exceeding the popularity threshold. Other embodiments are disclosed.

Video content monitoring device and methods thereof

Websites are monitored for changes over time. A domain name server resolves a domain name to a single internet protocol address and then performs a reverse resolution for the single internet protocol address. When multiple alias records resolve to the same host name, the domain name server determines the single internet protocol address virtually hosts multiple domain names.

Website security

Devices, systems, and methods are disclosed which relate to a network of RFID readers which detect a location of an RFID transmitter coupled to a portable device. The network of RFID readers transmits the location to a user. The RFID transmitter couples to any personal device and broadcasts a unique ID. The nearest RFID reader(s) receive the unique ID and alert a server in communication with the network of RFID readers. The server calculates the distance of the RFID transmitter from each RFID reader receiving the unique ID. The server triangulates the location of the RFID transmitter when three or more RFID readers are receiving the unique ID. The server then securely transmits the location of the RFID transmitter to the user of the portable device. The user receives the transmission through a secure receiver.

Devices, systems and methods for portable device location

Methods of providing cyber-security services to a plurality of customers include providing a platform that includes a software program that is configured to run on a processor to implement a user interface that is accessible by customers. The software program includes an application programming interface that is configured to allow a platform operator and third party providers to offer computer implemented cyber-security services to the customers through the user interface. Integration standards for the application programming interface are provided to the third party providers, the integration standards specifying how the computer implemented cyber-security services can be integrated into the platform. First and second computer implemented cyber-security service that are provided by respective first and second of the third party providers are accepted into the platform, each of which is self-certified by the third party provider as being operable through the platform. The first and second computer implemented cyber-security services are then delivered to respective first and second of the customers through the platform.

Methods and systems for providing comprehensive cyber-security protection using an open application programming interface based platform solution

A method for locating and monitoring websites is provided that includes finding websites and contained hyperlinks, downloading a first snapshot of a web page taken at a first time, and downloading a second snapshot of the web page taken at a second time later than the first time. The method also includes enabling a comparison of the first snapshot and the second snapshot. A system for monitoring websites is provided. The system includes means for enabling a comparison of the first snapshot and the second snapshot visually or through the use of content data from that web site. A computer-readable recording medium having recorded thereon an executable program is provided. The program when executed causes a processor to perform a method for monitoring websites.
