A user device and a server conduct a secure online transaction. The user device transmits received user login and credentials to the server, as well as one or more properties of the user device, such as a list of applications stored on the user device. The server transmits one or more restrictions back to the user device, such as which ports to close, which applications to close, and what features of applications and the operating system should be limited during the transaction. After implementing the restrictions, the user device and the server conduct the online transaction. A unique ID may be transmitted throughout the transaction and the unique ID may be a hash. After the transaction, the user device purges transaction data, restores normal operation, and notifies the server. The transaction may be conducted in a second tunnel and the other communication via a first tunnel.

Operational machine components of an information technology (IT) or other microprocessor- or microcontroller-permeated environment generate disparate forms of machine data. Network connections are established between these components and processors of an automatic data intake and query system (DIQS). The DIQS conducts network transactions on a periodic and/or continuous basis with the machine components to receive the disparate data and ingest certain of the data as measurement entries of a DIQS metrics datastore that is searchable for DIQS query processing. The DIQS may receive search queries to process against the received and ingested data via an exposed network interface. In one example embodiment, a query building component conducts a user interface using a network attached client device. The query building component may elicit search criteria via the user interface using a natural language interface, construct a proper query therefrom, and present new information based on results returned from the DIQS.

A device, system and method controlling operation of a client device via an intermediation server are provided. The server maintains indications of predefined data descriptions, associated with respective provider systems, comprising a subset of given predefined data descriptions to be provided at a client device during implementation of a computing-process flow in conjunction with communicating with the respective provider systems. The server: provides, to the respective provider systems, a communication from the client device received in conjunction with implementing a given step of the computing-process flow; and receives, from a given provider system, a response to the communication. The server provides, to the client device: the response; and a predefined data description associated with the given provider system in the indications, the predefined data description provided at the client device in conjunction with the response causing the client device to implement the predefined data description, according to the computing-process flow.
