A computer network risk mitigation system includes a computerized platform configured to utilize gathered contextual data regarding cyber-risk metrics in are operational technology network. The computerized platform is configured to conduct network configuration changes in accordance with the gathered contextual data in order to mitigate cyber-security threats. Methods for refining a network attack graph and for utilizing risk score evaluation are also described.

Described embodiments provide systems and methods for upgrading user space networking stacks without disruptions to network traffic. A first packet engine can read connection information of existing connections of a second packet engine written to a shared memory region by the second packet engine. The first packet engine can establish one or more virtual connections according to the connection information of existing connections of the second packet engine. Each of the first packet engine and the second packet engine can receive mirrored traffic data. The first packet engine can receive a first packet and determine that the first packet is associated with a virtual connection corresponding to an existing connection of the second packet engine. The first packet engine can drop the first packet responsive to the determination that the first packet is associated with the virtual connection.

A computing system may use redundant communication pathways for communicating surgical imaging feed(s). The computing system may obtain multiple surgical video streams via multiple pathways. The multiple surgical video streams may include copies of the same video. The surgical video streams may be obtained, for example, from the same intra-body imaging feed, such as intra-body visual light feed. For example, a first video stream may be obtained via a communication pathway, and a second video stream may be obtained via another communication pathway. The computing system may display or send a surgical video stream for display. The computing system may whether the video stream being displayed has encountered any issues. Upon detecting an issue with the video stream being displayed, the computing system may display or send another obtained surgical video stream for display.

A system for configuring a data center includes a fabric management server coupled to a management switch. A provisional Software Defined Networking (SDN) controller executing on the fabric management server can discover physical servers coupled to the management switch, receive network interface configuration information from the physical servers, and use the discovered network interface configuration information to determine a configuration for switches and servers coupled to an IP fabric. The configuration can be migrated to a full functionality SDN controller.

A method of automatic configuration of a communications interface of an unknown data network, the method comprising connecting an Electronic Flight Bag (EFB) to the unknown data network, attempting to open communication ports, in response to attempting to open communication ports, receiving data from the unknown data network, determining, by a controller module, if the selected communications interface can interpret the received data, and operating the communications interface of the EFB in accordance with the selected communications interface.

A system that permits or otherwise facilitates assessment of operational state of a computing component in a computing environment. In one example, this disclosure describes a method that includes collecting, by a server device that is executing within a server device cluster, metric information indicative of an operational state of the server device, wherein the metric information is associated with a plurality of virtual computing instances executing on the server device; analyzing, by the server device and based on the metric information, whether a first condition associated with a first virtual computing instance is satisfied; analyzing, by the server device and based on the metric information, whether a second condition associated with a second virtual computing instance is satisfied; and updating control information characterizing the operational state of the server device executing within the server device cluster.

The method of some embodiments allocates a secondary network interface for a pod, which has a primary network interface, in a container network operating on an underlying logical network. The method receives an ND that designates a network segment. The method receives the pod, wherein the pod includes an identifier of the ND. The method then creates a secondary network interface for the pod and connects the secondary network interface to the network segment. In some embodiments, the pods include multiple ND identifiers that each identify a network segment. The method of such embodiments creates multiple secondary network interfaces and attaches the multiple network segments to the multiple secondary network interfaces.

A method for dynamically provisioning computer components using a message platform communicatively coupled to a message generator is provided. The method includes receiving a first computer message, wherein the first computer message indicates that a computer component should be provisioned for a network cluster, routing the first computer message such that a first platform that is a customer of the first queue i) receives the first computer message and ii) automatically performs a first configuration operation on the computer component based on the first computer message, receiving, at the advanced message queue exchange, a second computer message from the first platform, and routing the second computer message such that a second platform that is a customer of the second queue i) receives the second computer message and ii) automatically performs a second configuration operation on the computer component based on the second computer message.
