摘要:
Embodiments of methods and/or systems to authorize access to stored data are disclosed herein. When a data access request is detected by an agent executing on a first device, the agent determines whether the data access request is authorized based on at least one rule associated with a security policy on the first device. If the agent determines that the data access request is authorized, then the data access request is transmitted to a second device. Subsequently, an application executing on the second device, then determines whether the presence of an agent on the first device is required to forward the data access request to a data storage system. This determination is based on statistical information associated with data access of the data storage system. If it is determined that the presence of the agent is required, the second device then determines whether the agent is present and forwards the data to the agent if the agent is present.
摘要:
A method, system and article for encrypting data by applying an encryption process, wherein the encryption process includes storing progress data relating to the progress of the encryption process so that the encryption process may be resumed after an interruption. Even more specifically, after the interruption, progress data relating to the progress of the encryption process is accessed. Portions of the progress data are compared to determine the last encrypted data segment. After the last encrypted data segment, the encryption process at the data segment is resumed.
摘要:
A system and method for securing data by receiving encrypted data at a security appliance transmitted from a client, wherein at least a portion of the encrypted data is encrypted according to a first encryption protocol, and wherein the encrypted data is transmitted to the security appliance according to a first data transfer protocol. The encrypted data is then decrypted at the security appliance, wherein at least a portion of the decrypted data is re-encrypted according to a second encryption protocol at the security appliance. The re-encrypted data is transmitted from the security appliance to a storage device, wherein the re-encrypted data is transmitted according to a second data transfer protocol that is different than the first data transfer protocol.
摘要:
The preferred embodiment of the invention distributes, and effectively caches, information by inserting it into file handles that the proxy sends to clients. This information can be used to improve performance by eliminating the need for the proxy to generate additional requests to the server to establish file identity. The distributed information can also be intended to improve security, for example, by allowing the proxy to encode into the file handle a session key that expires after some amount of time.
摘要:
In one embodiment, progress of an encryption process may be tracked. This may comprise, for example, storing progress of an encryption process so that the encryption process may be resumed after an interruption of the encryption process. As such, progress data may identify a point in the encryption process so that encryption may be resumed from that point. In at least one embodiment, storing progress of an encryption process may comprise storing and/or otherwise providing the last segment of data that was encrypted and/or the last segment of data that was not encrypted. Additionally, a data structure, may provide a capability to mark or indicate a point of interruption of the encryption process and provide data that may be utilized to resume from the point of interruption the overall encryption process.
