Abrégé

Methods for local page writes via pre-staging buffers for resilient buffer pool extensions are performed by computing systems. Compute nodes in database systems insert, update, and query data pages maintained in storage nodes. Data pages cached locally by compute node buffer pools are provided to buffer pool extensions on local disks as pre-copies via staging buffers that store data pages prior to local disk storage. Encryption of data pages occurs at the staging buffers, which allows a less restrictive update latching during the copy process, with page metadata being updated in buffer pool extensions page tables with in-progress states indicating it is not yet written to local disk. When stage buffers are filled, data pages are written to buffer pool extensions and metadata is updated in page tables to indicate available/valid states. Data pages in staging buffers can be read and updated prior to writing to the local disk.

Techniques for identifying an exposed credential that, if used, would provide access to a resource are disclosed. The techniques enable the resource to remain online while (i) a new credential is allocated for the resource, (ii) the resource is transitioned to using the new credential instead of the exposed credential, and (iii) the exposed credential is attempted to be invalidated. A credential is accessed. This credential is suspected of being in an exposed state. The credential is accessible from within an artifact and is determined to be in the exposed state. A new credential is generated. This new credential is designed to replace the exposed credential. An instruction is transmitted to the resource to cause it to transition from using the exposed credential to using the new credential. The exposed credential is then invalidated.

Abrégé

Using a language model attention matrix to facilitate a “code radar” source code navigation experience that highlights related source code locations. A computer system identifies a first source code location within source code that is displayed at a code editor user interface (UI). From a set of mappings generated based on a language model attention matrix, the computer system identifies a second source code location as being related to the first source code location. Concurrent with presenting the first source code location in the code editor UI, the computer system presents a related source code navigation experience, which includes both (i) presenting the second source code location in the code editor UI, and (ii) presenting a visual indication that the second source code location is related to the first source code location. Some embodiments include generating the set of mappings based on a language model attention matrix.

Inventeur(s) Proano, Guillermo Paul

Abrégé

Systems are methods are used for facilitating identify anonymization by using controlled masking and encryption of user identifiers, such as UUIDs. A system that manages a UUID converts the UUID into a set of one or more different unique versions of the UUID for one or more corresponding different partner system(s) by removing and replacing masked portions of the UUID and by selectively encrypting the non-masked portions of the UUID. New masked portions added to the new version(s) of the UUID identify different corresponding partner(s) and/or rules to be applied by the different partner(s) when handling the different unique version(s) of the UUID(s). Partner systems that receive the new versions of the UUID identify and utilize the new masked portions to deterministically control decrypting and/or other processing of the new version of the UUID.

Abrégé

Embodiments detect cyberattack campaigns against multiple cloud tenants by analyzing activity data to find sharing anomalies. Data that appears benign in a single tenant's activities may indicate an attack when the same or similar data is also found for additional tenants. Attack detection may depend on activity time frames, on how similar certain activities of different tenants are to one another, on how unusual it is for different tenants to share an activity, and on other factors. Sharing anomaly analysis may utilize hypergeometric probabilities or other statistical measures. Detection avoidance attempts using digital entity randomization are revealed and thwarted. Authorized vendors may be recognized, mooting anomalousness. Although data from multiple tenants is analyzed together for sharing anomalies while monitoring for attacks, tenant confidentiality and privacy are respected through technical and legal mechanisms. Mitigation is performed in response to an attack indication.

Abrégé

The present invention extends to methods, systems, and computer program products for identifying and consenting to permissions for workflow and code execution. Aspects of the invention can be used to automatically scan a workflow or code definition to identify (potentially all) the actions/triggers a workflow or program intends to perform on behalf of a user. The user is shown the actions/triggers the workflow or program intends to perform (e.g., at a user interface) before consent to perform the actions/triggers is granted. As such, a user is aware of intended actions/triggers of a workflow or program before granting consent. Further, since actions/triggers are identified from the workflow or code definition (and not formulated by an author), permission requests better align with permissions that workflow or program functionality actually uses during execution.

Abrégé

A general methodology is presented for optimizing a value at risk (VaR) associated with an allocation of objects (i.e., a strategy) having variable performance and loss characteristics. For purposes of illustration, investment strategies prescribing a portfolio of items from a set of candidates with unknown and generally correlated joint losses are discussed. The framework is based on approximating the VaR using nonparametric estimates of the portfolio loss density and, using mathematical insights, an efficient approach to computing the VaR gradient with respect to the strategy. The approach also allows inclusion of constraints on the strategy (e.g. a maximum fraction per item) and allows the VaR optimization problem to be solved using optimization techniques such as sequential quadratic programming.

Abrégé

Authentication request notifications are selectively suppressed, reducing notification fatigue and susceptibility to social engineering attacks. Authentication request notifications may be suppressed by not presenting a push notification on the user's phone. The authentication request may still be accessed and approved by manually opening the authenticator app. Notifications may be suppressed based on an estimation that the person attempting to login is not who they say they are. This estimation may be based on applying heuristics and/or machine learning models to the context of the login attempt, such as the IP address that originated the login request, time of day, recent user actions, patterns of previous logins, etc. One heuristic determines that the user has repeatedly ignored notifications caused by a particular IP address. Machine learning models generate a risk score from the login context, and notifications may be suppressed if the risk score exceeds a threshold.

Abrégé

Neural network-based categorization can be improved by incorporating graph neural networks that operate on a graph representing the taxonomy of the categories into which a given input is to be categorized by the neural network based-categorization. The output of a graph neural network, operating on a graph representing the taxonomy of categories, can be combined with the output of a neural network operating upon the input to be categorized, such as through an interaction of multidimensional output data, such as a dot product of output vectors. In such a manner, information conveying the explicit relationships between categories, as defined by the taxonomy, can be incorporated into the categorization. To recapture information, incorporate new information, or reemphasize information a second neural network can also operate upon the input to be categorized, with the output of such a second neural network being merged with the output of the interaction.

Abrégé

A technique uses a graph neural network (GNN) to determine whether a particular entity under consideration is engaging in abusive network-related activity over a computing network in collaboration with other entities. In some applications, the particular entity is part of a bot attack aimed at fraudulently engaging with advertisements. The technique trains the GNN by performing machine learning on a training set that includes a plurality of nodes, edges, and node labels. In forming the training set, the technique associates a feature set with each node in the training set that describes the network activity exhibited by that node's entity. The technique then connects each pair of nodes in the training set with an edge if the feature sets of the pair satisfy a prescribed test for similarity. The technique assigns labels to at least some nodes to convey whether the nodes are associated abusive network-related activity.

Abrégé

The techniques disclosed herein enable systems to translate three-dimensional experiences into user accessible experiences to improve accessibility for users with disabilities. This is accomplished by extracting components from a three-dimensional environment such as user avatars and furniture. The components are organized into component groups based on shared attributes. The component groups are subsequently organized into a flow hierarchy. The flow hierarchy is then presented to the user in an accessibility environment that enables interoperability with various accessibility tools such as screen readers, simplified keyboard inputs, and the like. Selecting a component group, and subsequently, a component through the accessibility environment accordingly invokes functionality within the three-dimensional environment. In this way, users with disabilities are empowered to fully interact with three-dimensional experiences.

Abrégé

Techniques for correcting an overlay misalignment between an external camera image and a system camera image are disclosed. A first system camera image and a first external camera image are acquired. A first visual alignment is performed between those two images to produce an overlaid image. Some of the content in the overlaid image is surrounded by a bounding element. A position of the bounding element is modified based on movements of the system camera and/or the external camera. In response to performing a second visual alignment using new images, an update vector is computed. Relative movement between the two cameras is determined. Based on the movement and based on the update vector, the bounding element is progressively transitioned to a corrected position in the overlaid image. A speed by which the bounding element is progressively transitioned is proportional to the amount of movement.

An authorized user access pillar value is based on an access signal representing the user's actual or potential access to resources. An impact risk value is calculated as a weighted combination of the pillar values. In response, an embodiment automatically adjusts a cybersecurity characteristic, such as a security risk score, security group membership, threat detection mechanism, or alert threshold. In some cases, impact risk is also based on a cumulative potential exfiltration anomaly access signal. In some cases, impact risk is based on one or more values which represent user public visibility, user social network influence, brand damage risk, resource mission criticality, access request response speed or success rate, or a known cybersecurity attack.

Abrégé

Clouds in a satellite image are replaced with a prediction of what was occluded by those clouds. The cloudy portion of the image is interpolated from a series of satellite images taken over time, some of which are cloud-free in the target image's cloudy portion. In some configurations, clouds are removed taking into account each pixel's availability—a measure of certainty that a pixel is cloud-free. Furthermore, these images may have been taken under different amounts of illumination, making it difficult to determine whether a difference between two images is due to a change in illumination or a change to the location. The effect of illumination on each image is removed before interpolating the cloudy portion of the image. In some configurations, removing the effect of illumination also takes into account pixel availability.

Abrégé

A failure recommendation system for a command line interface (CLI) uses machine learning to predict the most likely command to correct an unsuccessful or failed attempt to perform an intended operation using the CLI. The failure recommendation system is based on a conditional probability model trained on failure-success pairs of commands from CLI telemetry data to learn the most likely command to remediate a failure. The conditional probability model predicts the most likely command based on a failure type and the failed command. The failure type is identified through a failure type classifier and is used to select the most likely command to remediate a failure from the different events that may lead to a failure.

The automated generation of an emphasis image (such as a cropped image) that is based on an input image. The input image is fed to a machine-learned model that is trained to label portions of images. That machine-learned model then outputs an identification of multiple portions of images, along with potentially labels of each of those identified portions. The label identifies a property of the corresponding identified portion. As an example, one portion might be labelled as irrelevant, another might be labelled as a name, another might be labelled as a comment, and so forth. That output is accessed and the generated label is used to determine an emphasis bounding box. The emphasis bounding box is then applied to the input image to generate an emphasis image. As an example, the emphasis image may be a cropped image of the input image.

Abrégé

A system provides dynamically controlled participation allocations for communication sessions. A system can create a queue for participants of a communication session, such as an online meeting. The queue can be generated for a communication session having an intended format that allows participants to individually speak in succession, such as a Question and Answer (Q&A) session. The system manages a user interface (UI) of the communication session displaying a timer that changes dynamically for each participant indicating a total time for his or her questions or comments based on an amount of time left for the meeting to end. The system displays, augments, and associates a timer for each participant indicating a total time for his or her questions or comments, which is based on an amount of time left for the meeting to end, number of users providing a “hand raise” input, and history of participation for each participant.

Abrégé

Software-defined networking and network function virtualization constructs are leveraged across diverse portions of 5G network infrastructure including radio access network, mobile core, and wide area network to enable a security property to be implemented for a network slice from end-to-end to provide for strong logical and/or physical isolation of slice traffic from other network traffic. One or more network slice controllers are implemented in the 5G network that are interoperable as separate elements, or under centralized control, to enable the underlying diverse network infrastructure to be abstracted and virtualized so that infrastructure properties can be mapped across infrastructure types for the end-to-end slice. Network resources may be dynamically allocated based on real-time traffic demands to instantiate the end-to-end network slices on a customized basis to meet particular quality of service parameters for various traffic types, including privileged traffic that may be prioritized when resources become scarce and network congestion occurs.

Abrégé

An automated tuning service is used to automatically tune, or modify, the operational parameters of a large-scale cloud infrastructure. The tuning service performs automated and fully data/model-driven configuration based from learning various real-time performance of the cloud infrastructure. Such performance is identified through monitoring various telemetric data of the cloud infrastructure. The tuning service leverages a mix of domain knowledge and principled data-science to capture the essence of our cluster dynamic behavior in a collection of descriptive machine learning (ML) models. The ML models power automated optimization procedures for parameter tuning, and inform administrators in most tactical and strategical engineering/capacity decisions (such as hardware and datacenter design, software investments, etc.). Rich “observational” models (models collected without modifying the system) are combined with judicious use of “fighting” (testing in production), allowing the tuning service to automatically configure operational parameters of a large cloud infrastructure for a broad range of applications.

Abrégé

The techniques disclosed herein enable a guest operating system (OS) to access and use a media processing component configured on a host OS. The guest OS provides, via an API, a request to create an instance of the media processing component (e.g., a codec, an encryption/decryption component, a DRM component). In association with the request, the guest OS allocates space in memory for media data that is to be processed by the instance of the media processing component configured on the host OS. The guest OS stores the input media data in the allocated memory and provides, via the API, reference(s) to locations of the allocated memory. The reference(s) to the locations of the allocated memory enable the host OS to retrieve the input media data and process the input media data using the instance of the media processing component configured on the host OS.
