Abstract:
Techniques for dynamic generation and management of password dictionaries are presented. Passwords are parsed for recognizable terms. The terms are housed in dictionaries or databases. Statistics associated with the terms are maintained and managed. The statistics are used to provide strength values to the passwords and determine when passwords are acceptable and unacceptable.
Abstract:
Techniques for credential strength analysis via failed intruder access attempts are presented. Intruders attempting to access a secure network with failed credentials are monitored. The failed credentials are retained and evaluated in view of previously recorded failed credentials. Credential policy is updated in response to the evaluation and intruder trends and sophistication levels are also predicted in response to the evaluation.

Abstract:
Techniques real-time adaptive password policies are presented. Patterns for passwords are regularly analyzed along with other factors associated with the patterns to dynamically determine password strength values. The strength values can change over time based on usage statistics. When a strength value falls below an acceptable threshold, passwords associated with that particular pattern can be downgraded or rejected in real-time and existing policy can be adapted to reflect the undesirability of that pattern.

Abstract:
Before a relying party grants a client access to a resource, the last use of the security token by the client to access the resource of the relying party can be verified. Verification can be accomplished by comparing the last time the client sent the security token to the relying party with the last time the relying party received the security token from the client. If the last use of the security token is not verified, the possibility exists that the security token has been fraudulently used by a third party.

Abstract:
A device for providing operating system managed group communication sessions may include a memory and at least one processor. The at least one processor may be configured to receive, by an operating system level process executing on a device and from an application process executing on a device, a request to initiate a group session between a user associated with the device and another user. The at least one processor may be further configured to identify, by the operating system level process, another device associated with the other user. The at least one processor may be further configured to initiate, by the operating system level process, the group session with the user via the other device. The at least one processor may be further configured to manage, by the operating system level process, the group session.
Abstract:
A software version control system manages versioned applications in a client-server computing system environment. Thereby this is a management system for computer application (software) distribution where a number of client devices coupled to a server may be executing different versions of a particular computing application. The system manages updates to the applications and enforces rules or policies to use the most recent version whenever possible.
