    Abstract: The present disclosure provides a state management method, a method for switching between a master application server and a backup application server, and an electronic device. In present disclosure, the management server updates the recorded backup application server state in time by querying for the connection state of the hot-backup connection between the master application server and the backup application server, and when the master application server is in failure, instead of immediately controlling the master application server and the backup application server to perform switching between the master and backup application servers, the management server controls the master application server and the backup application server to perform master-backup switching between the application servers according to the recorded backup application server state.

    Abstract: Techniques for implementing RDMA-based recovery of dirty data in remote memory are provided. In one set of embodiments, upon occurrence of a failure at a first (i.e., source) host system, a second (i.e., failover) host system can allocate a new memory region corresponding to a memory region of the source host system and retrieve a baseline copy of the memory region from a storage backend shared by the source and failover host systems. The failover host system can further populate the new memory region with the baseline copy and retrieve one or more dirty page lists for the memory region from the source host system via RDMA, where the one or more dirty page lists identify memory pages in the memory region that include data updates not present in the baseline copy. For each memory page identified in the one or more dirty page lists, the failover host system can then copy the content of that memory page from the memory region of the source host system to the new memory region via RDMA.

    Abstract: A method for real-time detection of and protection from steganography in a kernel mode comprises detecting transmission of a file via a firewall, an operating system, or an e-mail system. A size of the file is determined. From a file system, a stored filesize of the file is retrieved. The determined size of the file is compared to the stored filesize of the file. Responsive to the determined size of the file being larger than the stored filesize of the file, steganography detection analytics are executed on the file. Responsive to the steganography detection analytics indicating presence of steganography in the file, a steganography remediation action is executed, and information is transmitted describing the steganography to a client device.
