Patent number: 10606444Abstract: In an example embodiment, a user interface is presented for interacting with a trust map identifying trust relationships between clients/users and servers/hosts. The trust relationships are defined by public/private key pairs in Secure Shell (SSH), Secure File Transfer Protocol (SFTP), Transport Layer Security/Secure Sockets Layer (TLS/SSL), Secure Multipurpose Internet Mail Extensions (S/MIME), Internet Protocol Security (IPsec), and so forth. A selected entity such as a server, client, client/server, key set, policy, and so forth is selected and displayed at the center of a hub/spoke diagram. Non-selected entities having a trust relationship with the hub entity are displayed as spokes. Similar spoke entitles may be grouped together. Trust relationships and related properties are displayed as lines between the hub and spoke entities. A user performs actions on the entities by manipulation of the hub, spoke, trust relationship and related user interface elements.Type: GrantFiled: October 11, 2018Date of Patent: March 31, 2020Assignee: Venafi, Inc.Inventors: Tero Petteri Harjula, Bryan Robert Lence, Daniel G.

Patent number: 10205593Abstract: In representative embodiments, a system and method to recommend improvements to a security reliance score is illustrated. Individual cryptographic key material has an associated security reliance score that is calculated based on attributes of associated with the cryptographic key material. The system identifies an improvement goal and evaluates a selected cross-section of key material and their associated scores. Based on the evaluation, the system creates an exemplary model having attributes to use as the basis of improvement. This model is then used to calculate improvement potential for a selected cross-section of scores by calculating the improvement that would occur if changes were made in the selected cross-section to match the model. Based on the improvement potential, the system can then automatically initiate action(s) to improve scores or present options for action(s) to a user for selection and initiation.Type: GrantFiled: April 25, 2016Date of Patent: February 12, 2019Assignee: Venafi, Inc.Inventors: Garrett Val Biesinger, Daniel G. DeBate, Harigopan Ravindran Nair, Remo Ronca, Matthew Woods

Publication number: 20190018968Abstract: In representative embodiments, a system and method to recommend improvements to regulatory compliance is illustrated. Regulations are mapped to attributes of cryptographic key materials. Individual cryptographic key material has an associated security reliance score that is calculated based on attributes of associated with the cryptographic key material. The system identifies an improvement goal related to regulatory compliance and evaluates a selected cross-section of key material, their associated scores and regulatory compliance. Based on the evaluation, the system creates an exemplary model having attributes to use as the basis of improvement. This model is then used to calculate improvement potential for a selected cross-section of scores. Based on the improvement potential, the system can then automatically initiate action(s) to improve scores or present options for action(s) to a user for selection and initiation.Type: ApplicationFiled: August 31, 2018Publication date: January 17, 2019Inventors: Remo Ronca, Matthew Woods, Harigopan Ravindran Nair, Garrett Val Biesinger, Daniel G.
