  • Patent number: 8812342
    Abstract: A computer implemented method, data processing system, and computer program product is provided for using compliance violation risk data about an entity to enable an identity management system to dynamically adjust the frequency in which the identity management system performs a reconciliation and compliance check of an identity account associated with the entity. Data associated with an identity account is collected, wherein the data comprises at least one of compliance data, prior compliance violations, or personal data about an entity associated with the identity account. One or more risk factors for the identity account based on the collected data are determined. A risk score of the identity account is calculated based on the determined risk factors. The identity account is then audited with a frequency according to the risk score assigned to the identity account.

  • Patent number: 8117181
    Abstract: An identity management system provides for a computationally efficient approach to monitor group changes, or events, on a directory service. Group events are monitored by use of a domain crawler process launched by an event monitoring process of the identity management system that gathers group event data and reports the collected and consolidated changes to the identity management system.

  • Patent number: 7480651
    Abstract: A method and system provides for a computationally efficient approach to monitor group changes, or events, on a directory service. Group events are monitored by use of a domain crawler launched by an event monitoring process of an identity management (IdM) system that gathers group event data and reports the collected and consolidated changes to the IdM system.

  • Patent number: 5589027
    Abstract: Bordered and custom fabricated rugs are formed by initially bonding carpet segments together along abutting edges, using a high temperature hot melt adhesive. Preferably a latex coated material is then bonded to the backing of the adjoined carpet segments using a second lower temperature hot melt adhesive. A reinforcing mesh layer is preferably bonded to and between a rug backing and the carpet backing. The apparatus used to bond the rug backing to the carpet backing includes two opposed endless belts, moving along parallel runs at the same speed, which capture the carpet sections and the backing between them and carry the assembly first through a heating section then through a cooling section as pressure is applied to force the carpet segments against the rug backing into engagement with the adhesive. The heating section melts the low temperature adhesive, which then flows under pressure, bonding the segments together.
