On a host, host content change requests are intercepted in real-time. In a tracking mode, the change requests are logged and allowed to take effect on the host. In an enforcement mode, the change requests are logged and additionally compared against authorized change policies and a determination is made whether to allow the change to take effect or to block the changes, thereby enforcing the authorized change policies on the host. Tracking and enforcement can be done in real-time. In either mode and at any time, the logged changes can be reconciled against a set of approved change orders in order to identify classes of changes, including changes that were deployed but not approved and changes that were approved but not deployed.

A method for software change modeling for network devices provides dynamic (on the device) and static (computer) change modeling. The same source code and libraries are used for both modeling applications, allowing a user to see the impact of activating or deactivating specific software modules without affecting the actual node. A master node passes a node the identity of the software package(s) to be updated and the dependencies. The node notifies its running processes about the update. If any of the processes determine that the update will degrade or have a negative impact on the operation of the node, it returns a veto to the node which sends a list of the processes that are impacted along with the reasons why to the master node.

Compressed memory systems and methods that reduce problems of memory overflow and data loss. A compression engine compresses blocks of data for storage in a compressed memory. A compression monitor monitors the achieved compression ratio and provides a software trap when the achieved compression ratio falls below a minimum. After the trap is provided software monitors the fill state of the compressed memory. If the compressed memory is approaching full, the software changes the block size to improve the compression ratio.

In one example, a system is provided to determine the impact of implementing a change request on a software program. The system may include an architecture model of the software program that includes components. Each of the components may have attributes that may be used by the system to determine a degree of effort to modify each respective one of the components. Components may be associated with keywords. The system may search the change request for the keywords to identify components that may be impacted by the change request. The system may determine the degree of effort to modify any impacted component based on the architecture model. The system may determine the overall impact on the software program based on the degree of effort determined for the impacted components.

The invention provides a method and a device for preventing login information from being stealed to solve the problem that the prior art cannot search and kill malicious softwares after variation timely when characteristics of the malicious softwares change. The method includes triggering and establishing monitoring threads by starting a target process, wherein the target process is used to input login information to complete login; monitoring the state of the thread detection target process before completing login; and performing operations of cleaning malicious softwares if the state of the target process is detected abnormal. The method and the device for preventing login information from being stealed are based on the method of malicious softwares stealing user login information, and aiming at the characteristics that malicious softwares use identical obtaining method with different characteristics to obtain user login information illegally, The method and the device play a defensive roll fundamentally, and prevent login information from being stealed. In addition, detection is conducted each time the target process is started, so that the safety of the user login information is guaranteed perfectly.
