  • Publication number: 20140181134
    Abstract: A query engine for integrating authorization conditions within a database query statement. The query engine may include an authorization handler configured to receive authorization parameters related to one or more authorization objects for data relevant to a query for performing an authority check, and obtain at least one user authorization profile for a current user based on the authorization parameters. The at least one user authorization profile may include an activity value and one or more authorization conditions associated with the activity value. The query engine may further include a query generator configured to receive query parameters related to the query and integrate the query parameters with the one or more authorization conditions to obtain a database query statement, and a database selector configured to obtain authorized data from an in-memory database based on the database query statement.

  • Publication number: 20140032602
    Abstract: A system, method, and a computer program product for checking in-memory authorization profiles are disclosed. An authorization profile of a user in an enterprise resource planning system can be determined. An access to an in-memory database system can be requested based on the determined authorization profile. Based on the access request, an authorization check of the determined authorization profile of the user can be performed to determine whether the user can access the in-memory database system using the determined authorization profile. An access to the in-memory database system to the user can be granted based on the performed authorization check.

  • Publication number: 20140012833
    Abstract: Various embodiments of systems and methods for protection of data privacy in an enterprise system are described herein. A data request is generated using an application. The data request is sent to a query engine and a database query is generated. A database is queried using the database query and a database response is generated. The database response is sent to the query engine. A blocking table is searched for an identifier in the database response. The blocking table comprises a listing of identifiers identifying tuples with one or more blocked attributes and a data overlay for redacting the one or more blocked attributes. The data overlay is substituted for the one or more blocked attributes in the database response if the identifier is found in the blocking table. After substituting, the database response is sent to the application.

  • Patent number: 8423509
    Abstract: The invention may provide “undo” (e.g., rollback) features, along with data management simplification features, to an update package model of software suite development/evolution. New functions, which may have disruption effects for customers, may be installed into the core configuration data with inactive switches. Upon activation, a switch status may change, and a query filter may use the activated function (e.g., as associated with the switch ID). Original functions may be maintained, giving the user the ability to deactivate an activated function, and thereby reverting the system back to the prior configuration status.

  • Publication number: 20130066893
    Abstract: Various embodiments of systems and methods for protection of data privacy in an enterprise system are described herein. A request to access data stored in an electronic database is received. The data comprises restricted and unrestricted entities. A restricted entity is replaced with one or more masked attributes that protect privacy of the restricted entity. A mask layout comprising the one or more masked attributes is defined for the restricted entity. The one or more masked attributes are then provided to a user in response to the request.

  • Patent number: 8224758
    Abstract: Systems and methods are provided for managing the transportation of dangerous materials. In one embodiment, a system is provided. The system comprises a database for storing master data for a set of materials. Each material has an assigned regulation applicable for the transportation of the material. The master data indicates at least one exception of one of the assigned regulations. The at least one exception defines a modification of the one of the regulations. The system further comprises a user interface for selection of a sub-set of the set of materials to be transported and a processor for checking compliance of the sub-set with the regulations that are assigned to the materials of the sub-set.
