    Abstract: A virtual machine is suspended as a result of receiving a request for suspending a plurality of virtual machines, and, for each virtual machine of the plurality, obtaining a first snapshot of an exemplary virtual machine, obtaining a second snapshot of the virtual machine, determining a set of changes based on the second snapshot and the first snapshot, storing the set of changes in persistent storage in association with the virtual machine, and terminating the virtual machine. The system and method further including receiving a request for restoring the plurality of virtual machines to corresponding previous states, and, for each virtual machine of the plurality, obtaining the first snapshot of the exemplary virtual machine, obtaining the second snapshot of the virtual machine, and restoring the virtual machine to a previous state based on the second snapshot.

    Abstract: Approaches are described for allowing an access control policy to specify that a substitute operation be executed when a request for access matches certain conditions specified in the access control policy (e.g., when the identity of the requestor matches a specified identity in the policy). For example, the access control may specify that a substitute result should be provided to a requestor in response to a request for access or a substitute request should be executed instead of executing the received request and the results of the substitute request should be provided to the requestor in response to the request. The substitute result or the result of the substitute request may appear to the requestor as though their original request for access succeeded but the content of the result may be different than what would have been generated if the access control policy allowed the request to proceed.

    Abstract: A system uses information submitted in connection with a request to determine if and how to process the request. The information may be electronically signed by a requestor using a key such that the system processing the request can verify that the requestor has the key and that the information is authentic. The information may include information that identifies a holder of a key needed for processing the request, where the holder of the key can be the system or another, possibly third party, system. Requests to decrypt data may be processed to ensure that a certain amount of time passes before access to the decrypted data is provided, thereby providing an opportunity to cancel such requests and/or otherwise mitigate potential security breaches.

    Abstract: Techniques for hosting components of provider services within secure execution environments are described herein. Information associated with a request received at a control plane of a service is received at a secure execution environment and, based at least in part on that information, one or more tasks is determined that may be performed to respond to the request. A task of the one or more tasks is performed within the secure execution environment to generate a response to the request, the response is encrypted within the secure execution environment using a key stored within the secure execution environment and available to a component of a computer system, and the encrypted response is made available.

    Abstract: Pin tumbler locks are provided that include features for detecting tampering. Tampering may be detected in a number of different ways. As an example, abnormal movement of one or more of the driver pins in a pin tumbler lock can be an indication of tampering. In addition, one or more sensors can be included at the end of a keyway that detect picking or bumping beyond the length of normal key insertion. An electrical sensor can be used for detection.

    Abstract: Concepts and technologies are described herein for providing enhanced Completely Automated Public Turing tests to Tell Computers and Humans Apart (“CAPTCHAs”). According to some of the concepts and technologies disclosed herein, a CAPTCHA service may be configured to generate CAPTCHAs enhanced with watermarks and/or other enhancements. The CAPTCHA service may provide the enhanced CAPTCHAs to user services, such as Websites, Web services, and other services that utilize or are capable of utilizing CAPTCHAs as a security feature. The watermarks and/or other enhancements may contain information associated with users of the user services so that the enhanced CAPTCHAs are more difficult to break by unauthorized entities, including automated programs such as “bots.” According to other concepts and technologies disclosed herein, a CAPTCHA breaking service is provided.
