Certain embodiments of the present disclosure provide a method and apparatus for processing data. The method comprises, at an edge device, parsing a first data packet after receiving the first data packet sent by a client device to obtain a virtual IP address and a destination port that correspond to the first data packet; querying an IP address mapping table according to the virtual IP address to obtain a destination IP address corresponding to the virtual IP address; and sending the first data packet according to the destination IP address and the destination port.

Some embodiments establish for an entity a virtual network over several public clouds of several public cloud providers and/or in several regions. In some embodiments, the virtual network is an overlay network that spans across several public clouds to interconnect one or more private networks (e.g., networks within branches, divisions, departments of the entity or their associated datacenters), mobile users, and SaaS (Software as a Service) provider machines, and other web applications of the entity. The virtual network in some embodiments can be configured to optimize the routing of the entity's data messages to their destinations for best end-to-end performance, reliability and security, while trying to minimize the routing of this traffic through the Internet. Also, the virtual network in some embodiments can be configured to optimize the layer 4 processing of the data message flows passing through the network.

A content provider has a plurality of content provider domain names, and a content delivery network (CDN) allocates a plurality of CDN domain names to the particular content provider. The content provider domain names are mapped to the CDN domain names. CDN domain names are bound to corresponding CDN clusters. The binding of the of CDN domain names to corresponding CDN clusters is modified.

A method to transmit and receive a packet in a bridge of a communication system is provided. The method includes receiving a first packet from a first network. The method also includes converting a medium access control (MAC) layer source address of the received first packet into a MAC address of the bridge. The method further includes transmitting the address-converted first packet to a node of a second network.

Disclosed embodiments relate to systems and methods for dynamically analyzing and enrolling virtualized execution instances. Techniques include identifying a request for enrollment for a virtualized execution instance configured to be deployed on a host in a virtual computing environment, the request including a result of a privileged configuration inspection for the virtualized execution instance; determining, based on the result of the privileged configuration inspection, to automatically enroll the virtualized execution instance; and including the virtualized execution instance in a group of enrolled virtualized execution instances, the group being available for secure communications with one or more clients in a manner that is isolated from the host.

The disclosure belongs to wireless communication technology, and the provided method, device and system of Forward Addressing and Backward Readdressing InterConnect (FABRIC) including, the method of forward addressing and backward readdressing interconnect enables any two devices in the system to establish interconnection channels when data exchange is required, and screens out suitable relay devices among the numerous intermediate devices between the two devices, the transmission of data is controlled within a limited range, and the interconnection channel is not unique, each time of data transmission is likely to pass through different intermediate devices with randomness and redundancy, it can cope with a certain degree of device movements. A plurality of devices can carry out communication between two at the same time without conflict.

Determining an entity's cybersecurity risk and benchmarking that risk includes non-intrusively collecting one or more types of data associated with an entity. Embodiments further include calculating a security score for at least one of the one or more types of data based, at least in part, on processing of security information extracted from the at least one type of data, wherein the security information is indicative of a level of cybersecurity. Some embodiments also comprise assigning a weight to the calculated security score based on a correlation between the extracted security information and an overall security risk determined from analysis of one or more previously-breached entities in the same industry as the entity. Additional embodiments include calculating an overall cybersecurity risk score for the entity based, at least in part, on the calculated security score and the weight assigned to the calculated security score.

System and method for supporting multiple concurrent SL to VL mappings in a high performance computing environment. In accordance with an embodiment, systems and methods can provide for two or more SL to VL mappings per ingress switch port in a network switched fabric. By allowing for multiple such mappings, greater virtual lane independence can be achieved while continuing to achieve quality of service guarantees.
