METHODS FOR HANDLING SECURITY OF EARLY MOBILE-TERMINATED DATA TRANSMISSIONS
There is provided a method in a target network node for performing early data transmission (EDT) when a wireless device has suspended a connection from a source network node. The method comprises: receiving ciphered data from a first network node; sending a message to the wireless device, the message comprising the ciphered data; and in response to the sent message, receiving a message from the wireless device, the message allowing the target network node to retrieve a User Equipment (UE) context of the wireless device from the source network node.
ASSIGNING PRIORITY FOR AN AUTOMATED ASSISTANT ACCORDING TO A DYNAMIC USER QUEUE AND/OR MULTI-MODALITY PRESENCE DETECTION
Implementations relate to an automated assistant that provides and manages output from one or more elements of output hardware of a computing device. The automated assistant manages dynamic adjustment of access permissions to the computing device according to, for example, a detected presence of one or more users. An active-user queue can be established each time a unique user enters a viewing window of a camera of the computing device when, up to that point, no user was considered active. Multiple image frames can be captured via the camera and processed to determine whether an initial user remains in the viewing window and/or whether another user has entered the viewing window. The initial user can be considered active as long as they are exclusively detected in the viewing window. Restricted content associated with the user may be rendered by the computing device whilst the user is active.
DYNAMIC SEGMENTATION MANAGEMENT
Systems, methods, and related technologies for segmentation management are described. In certain aspects, an entity communicatively coupled to a network is selected and one or more characteristics of the entity may be determined. A segmentation policy may be selected based on the one or more characteristics of the entity and one or more tags to be assigned to the entity based on the segmentation policy may be determined. A zone for the entity based on the one or more tags may be determined and one or more enforcement points associated with the zone for the entity may be determined. One or more enforcement actions may then be assigned to the one or more enforcement points based on the zone associated with the entity.
ADAPTIVE RSSI ADJUSTMENT
Methods, apparatuses, systems, and non-transitory computer-readable medium are disclosed relating to abnormal transmission identification. One method comprises, at a receiving device, receiving a V2X message from a transmitting device. The method further comprises determining a signal propagation context for the receiving device and obtaining an RSSI value and a distance value for the V2X message. The method further comprises generating an adjusted RSSI value based on (1) the RSSI value and (2) the signal propagation context for the receiving device. The method further comprises obtaining a predetermined RSSI-to-distance relationship model and comparing an adjusted RSSI-to-distance data pair, comprising the adjusted RSSI value and the distance value, to the predetermined RSSI-to-distance relationship model. The method further comprises, in response to determining that the adjusted RSSI-to-distance data pair fails a criterion for conforming to the predetermined RSSI-to-distance relationship model, identifying the V2X message as an abnormal transmission.
User-authorized onboarding using a public authorization service
Various systems and methods for user-authorized onboarding of a device using a public authorization service (310) are described herein. In an example, a 3-way authorization protocol is used to coordinate device onboarding among several Internet of Things (IoT) Fog users (e.g., devices in a common network topology or domain) with principles of least privilege. For instance, respective onboarding steps may be assigned for performance by different Fog ‘owners’ such as respective users and clients (350A, 350B, . . . , 350N). Each owner may rely on a separate authorization protocol or user interaction to be notified of and to give approval for the specific onboarding action(s) assigned. Further techniques for implementation and tracking such onboarding actions as part of an IoT network service are also disclosed.
Identity management via a centralized identity management server device
A device can establish an identity for an individual by communicating with a first set of devices. The first set of devices can include a user device, a first server device associated with a certificate authority, or a second server device associated with an identity provider. The device can authenticate the identity of the individual by communicating with a second set of devices. The second set of devices can include the user device, or a third server device associated with a first service provider. The device can authorize the identity of the individual to be used by one or more service providers by communicating with a third set of devices. The third set of devices can include the user device, the third server device, or a fourth server device associated with a second service provider.
Network cyber-security platform
A security platform of a data network is provided that includes security services for computing devices in communication with the data network. The security platform may apply a security policy to the computing devices when accessing the Internet via a home network (or other customer network) and when accessing the Internet via a public or third party network. To provide security services to computing devices via the home network, the security platform may communicate with a security agent application executed on the router (or other gateway device) of the home network. In addition, each of the devices identified by the security profile for the home network may be instructed or otherwise be provided a security agent application for execution on the computing devices. The security agent application may communicate with the security platform when the computing device connects to the Internet over a third party or public access point.
Multi-domain trust establishment in edge cloud architectures
A service coordinating entity device includes communications circuitry to communicate with a first access network, processing circuitry, and a memory device. The processing circuitry is to perform operations to, in response to a request for establishing a connection with a user equipment (UE) in a second access network, retrieve a first Trusted Level Agreement (TLA) including trust attributes associated with the first access network. One or more exchanges of the trust attributes of the first TLA and trust attributes of a second TLA associated with the second access network are performed using a computing service executing on the service coordinating entity. A common TLA with trust attributes associated with communications between the first and second access networks is generated based on the exchanges. Data traffic is routed from the first access network to the UE in the second access network based on the trust attributes of the common TLA.
Cloud security system implementing service action categorization
A service action category based cloud security system and method implement cloud security by categorizing service actions of cloud service providers into a set of service action categories. The service action categorization is performed agnostic to the applications or functions provided by the cloud service providers and also agnostic to the cloud service providers. With the service actions of cloud service providers thus categorized, cloud security monitoring and threat detection can be performed based on service action categories. Thus, cloud security can be implemented without requiring knowledge of the applications supported by the cloud service providers and without knowing all of the individual service actions supported by the cloud service providers.
Method and apparatus for policy-based management of assets
A method and system for managing shared use of an asset. An asset device and an owner device accomplish an initial setup procedure to register the owner with the asset. One or more secure policies are then sent from the owner device, or another device authorized to create policies, to one or more user devices. The policies express user conditions and limitations for using the asset. Subsequently, the user device transmits the secure policy to the asset device. Once the policy has been transferred from the user device to the asset device, user associated with the user device can request use of the asset and will be granted the requested use if the requested use is permitted by the policy.
