摘要:
A method and apparatus for controlling document access and application usage using centrally managed rules. The rules are stored and manipulated in a central rule database via a rule server. Policy enforcers are installed on client systems and/or on servers and perform document access and application usage control for both direct user document accesses and application usage, and application program document accesses by evaluating the rules sent to the policy enforcer. The rule server decides which rules are required by each policy enforcer. A policy enforcer can also perform obligation and remediation operations as a part of rule evaluation. Policy enforcers on client systems and servers can operate autonomously, evaluating policies that have been received, when communications have been discontinued with the rule server.

Computationally implemented methods and systems include acquiring an offer to facilitate execution of one or more services that utilize a particular portion of a device, in exchange for access to the particular portion of the device, determining whether to accept the offer to facilitate execution of the one or more services and grant access to the particular portion of the device, and facilitating access to the particular portion upon a determination to accept the offer to facilitate the execution of the one or more services. In addition to the foregoing, other aspects are described in the claims, drawings, and text.

A system and method may provide for defining a usage policy for an available resource of a personal computing system, and transmitting the usage policy to a market broker. The market broker may identify a match between the usage policy and a request from another computing system, and generate a notification of the match. In addition, funds may be transferred from an account associated with the other computing system to an account associated with the personal computing system based on a remote usage of the available resource by the other computing system.

Computationally implemented methods and systems include receiving data regarding one or more properties of a device, said data not particularly identifying the device, identifying one or more services configured to be provided to a user of the device, said one or more services requiring access to particular data controlled by the device, wherein access to the particular data controlled by the device is managed by the device, and requesting access to the particular data controlled by the device, in exchange for providing one or more of the identified one or more services. In addition to the foregoing, other aspects are described in the claims, drawings, and text.

A method and apparatus are for automatically accessing a social network account that provides member information about each of a plurality of social network members. The member information about at least one of the social network members, denoted as a particular member, includes a network detection portion and a security portion. The network detection portion is retrieved from the social network for at least the particular member. A detection is made that the wireless device is within range of a secure wireless network associated with the particular member. The detection uses the network detection portion of the particular member as an input. The security portion of the member information of the particular member is retrieved from the social network. The security portion is used to derive access credentials for the secure wireless network. The derived access credentials are used to securely access the secure wireless network.

In accordance with the teaching described herein, systems and methods are provided for prodding secure access to a software application on a computing device. The software application may include a security framework having a set of predetermined security requirements. Prior to enabling access to the software application by a user, the computing device may, (i) verify installation of a device security configuration profile on the computing device, wherein the device security configuration profile certifies that the software application includes the set of predetermined security requirements, (ii) receive identifying information from the user via a user interface, (iii) verify the identifying information with an authentication server, and (iv) based on a successful verification of the identifying information, receive and store a security token. Access to the software application on the computing device may be provided for a specified period identified by the security token.
摘要:
A tenant multiplexer in an administrative tenant of a multi-tenant software architecture can call an administrative agent in the administrative tenant and receive, from the administrative agent, an action framework and a trusted connection protocol for accessing each of the plurality of client tenants. The trusted connection protocol can establish, without tenant-specific authentication information, a trusted system connection to an update agent in each of the plurality of client tenants. An action framework can be simultaneously implemented using the update agent of each of at least a subset of the plurality of client tenants under control of the multiplexer via the trusted system connection to begin execution of the software process for the at least the subset of client tenants.

Computationally implemented methods and systems include acquiring data regarding a device having a particular protected portion for which the device is configured to selectively allow access, facilitating presentation of an offer to carry out at least one service, said at least one service at least partly related to the device, in exchange for access to the particular protected portion of the device, and facilitating performance of at least a portion of the at least one service that is at least partly related to the device, in response to a grant of access to the particular protected portion of the device. In addition to the foregoing, other aspects are described in the claims, drawings, and text.
