Publication number: 20160154616Abstract: In the coordination of a data conversion server and a storage server which belong to different security domains, a client terminal is able to replace an authorization token for accessing the data conversion server with a temporary URL on the storage server, the client terminal, which is located outside the data exchange server, will be able to issue a temporary URL without authorization, resulting in a file operation which is not intended by the data conversion server being performed. Scopes for allowing a client terminal to access the data conversion server and scopes necessary for the issuance of a temporary URL are separated from each other, and a limitation is imposed so that the scopes for the issuance of a temporary URL can be used only by the data conversion server, thereby enabling secure provision of a temporary URL to an external client terminal.Type: ApplicationFiled: December 1, 2015Publication date: June 2, 2016Inventor: Kensuke Hirata

Publication number: 20140304324Abstract: When a management apparatus receives a content sharing request, the apparatus uploads information about the content to a microblog service by using an authority of a first user who made the sharing request, associates an identifier for determining the information with the content. Next, when the apparatus receives a display request for the content, the apparatus transmits an acquisition request of the uploaded information corresponding to the identifier associated with the requested content by using an authority of a second user who made the display request, to the microblog service. If the apparatus determines that the uploaded information can be acquired, the apparatus permits displaying of the content corresponding to the display request. Otherwise, the apparatus denies displaying of the content corresponding to the display request. In this way, a sharing relationship among users in the microblog service and content access rights can be associated with each other.Type: ApplicationFiled: April 3, 2014Publication date: October 9, 2014Inventor: Kensuke Hirata
