Robert Lee Rodgers - Newark CA

International Classification:

0202

US Classification:

D 2742

US Patent:

20230026420, Jan 26, 2023

Filed:

Oct 4, 2022

Appl. No.:

17/937935

Inventors:

- San Jose CA, US
Robert Stephen Rodgers - Mountain View CA, US
Andrew Phillips Thurber - Charlotte VT, US
Eric Voit - Bethesda MD, US
Thomas John Giuli - Mountain View CA, US

International Classification:

H04L 9/40

Abstract:

An enclave manager of a network enclave obtains a request to retrieve configuration information and state information corresponding to compute devices and network devices comprising a network enclave. The request specifies a set of parameters of the configuration information and the state information usable to generate a response to the request. The enclave manager evaluates the compute devices, the network devices, and network connections among these devices within the network enclave to obtain the configuration information and the state information. Based on the configuration information and the state information, the enclave manager determines whether the network enclave is trustworthy. Based on the parameters of the request, the enclave manager generates a response indicating a summary that is used to identify the trustworthiness of the network enclave.

Abstract:

The present technology discloses systems, methods, and computer-readable media for requesting at least one signed security measurement from at least one module with a corresponding cryptoprocessor, the at least one module existing within a device; receiving the at least one signed security measurement from the at least one module with the corresponding cryptoprocessor; validating the at least one signed security measurement; generating a signed dossier including all validated signed security measurements in a secure enclave, the signed dossier being used by an external network device for remote attestation of the device.

Appl. No.:

14/587612

Inventors:

- Sunnyvale CA, US
Ramesh Rajan - San Jose CA, US
David M. Katz - Santa Cruz CA, US
Robert Rodgers - Mountain View CA, US

International Classification:

H04L 29/08
H04L 12/24

Abstract:

A first system manager operating on a first node of a distributed computing system, receives data indicating a current state of the distributed computing system. The first system manager may determine, based at least in part on the current state of the distributed computing system and a set of rules for an application, an updated state of the distributed computing system. Furthermore, the first node may send the updated state of the distributed computing system to a second node of the distributed computing system. Responsive to receiving the updated state of the distributed computing system, a second system manager on the second node may modify a state of the second node. Modifying the state of the second node may comprise at least one of: starting the application on the second node, stopping the application on the second node, or modifying a state of the application on the second node.

Abstract:

A first system manager operating on a first node of a distributed routing system, receives data indicating a current state of the distributed routing system. The first system manager may determine, based at least in part on the current state of the distributed routing system and a set of rules for an application, an updated state of the distributed routing system. Furthermore, the first node may send the updated state of the distributed routing system to a second node of the distributed routing system. Responsive to receiving the updated state of the distributed routing system, a second system manager on the second node may modify a state of the second node. Modifying the state of the second node may comprise at least one of: starting the application on the second node, stopping the application on the second node, or modifying a state of the application on the second node.
