Abstract: A system for application access control is disclosed. First, a business coordinator needs to register a user developed tool (UDT) containing an application to be protected with the system via a software program. After registration, a random encrypted password is generated by the application access control server and stored in its back-end database as well as a local break-glass database corresponding to the UDT. When an entitled user accesses the application in the registered UDT later on, the system will check whether he/she is entitled to access the requested application. If yes, the system will retrieve the encrypted password for that application and thus launch the application.

Abstract: A password management system and method for securing networked client terminals and mobile devices is provided. More specifically, the present invention provides a system and method for encrypting randomly generated administrator-level passwords and providing a means for decrypting the randomly generated passwords for single-use unrestricted access to a designated terminal or mobile device. When unrestricted access to the terminal or mobile device is required, the encrypted administrator-level password is decrypted using a shared symmetric key, which is generated during encryption of the administrator password, to reveal the administrator-level password for the terminal or mobile device. The administrator-level password is a single-use password, wherein upon use of the administrator-level password a new administrator-level password may be automatically generated for the corresponding terminal or mobile device.
