摘要:
Embodiments of the invention provide techniques for basing access control decisions at the network layer at least in part on information provided in claims, which may describe attributes of a computer requesting access, one or more resources to which access is requested, the user, the circumstances surrounding the requested access, and/or other information. The information may be evaluated based on one or more access control policies, which may be pre-set or dynamically generated, and used in making a decision whether to grant or deny the computer access to the specified resource(s).
摘要:
Embodiments of the invention provide a trusted intermediary for use in a system in which access control decisions may be based at least in part on information provided in claims. The intermediary may request claims on behalf of a network resource to which access is requested, and submit the claims for a decision whether to grant or deny access. The decision may be based at least in part on one or more access control policies, which may be pre-set or dynamically generated. Because the intermediary requests the claims and submits the claims for an access control decision, the network resource (e.g., a server application) need not be configured to process claims information.

摘要:
Embodiments of the invention make the issuance of trustworthy device claims available to client devices as a service, so that a client device to which device claims are issues may use the device claims in relation to an attempt to access a network application. The service may conduct an assessment of the device's characteristics and/or state, characterize the results of this assessment in device claims, and issue the device claims to the device. The service may be accessible to a client device from outside administrative boundaries of an entity that makes a network application accessible, and thus may be useful to entities making network applications accessible in business-to-consumer (B2C) and business-to-business (B2B) topologies, such as over the publicly accessible Internet.

摘要:
Embodiments of the invention enable a client device to procure trustworthy device claims describing one or more attributes of the client device, have those device claims included in a data structure having a format suitable for processing by an application, and use the data structure which includes the device claims in connection with a request to access the application. The application may use the device claims to drive any of numerous types of application functionality, such as security-related and/or other functionality.
摘要:
Architecture that provides additional data that can be obtained and employed in security models in order to provide security to services over the service lifecycle. The architecture automatically propagates security classifications throughout the lifecycle of the service, which can include initial deployment, expansion, moving servers, monitoring, and reporting, for example, and further include classification propagation from the workload (computer), classification propagation in the model, classification propagation according to the lineage of the storage location (e.g., virtual hard drive), status propagation in the model and classification based on data stored in the machine.
