  • Patent number: 10097575
    Abstract: Implementations of the present disclosure involve a system and/or method of performing security asset management. The system and/or method may schedule vulnerability scanners to scan the various portions of one or more networks and obtain the results of the vulnerability scans. IP addresses may be assigned to each of vulnerability scanners to scan. The system obtains the results of the vulnerability scans and may adjust the results of the scans according to configuration of the one or more networks that an IP address is associated with. The system and/or method may also assign and reassign IP addresses amongst the scanners to optimize scanning speed.

  • Patent number: 8990911
    Abstract: Systems, methods and apparatus for providing single sign on across a plurality of resources is disclosed. An exemplary method includes receiving a request from a user to access a particular one of the plurality of resources; establishing an SSO session for the user if an SSO session has not been established; determining if the user has been authenticated to the particular resource, and if not, retrieving credentials for the user that are specific to the resource; presenting the credentials to the resource so as to create a session with the resource; and presenting a user interface for a customer to configure which of the plurality of resources can be accessed by users.

  • Patent number: 8418238
    Abstract: A system, method and apparatus for managing access across a plurality of applications is disclosed. The system may include a user store connector configured to connect to one or more user stores to retrieve attributes; an authentication connector configured to communicate with at least one authentication subsystem to authenticate a user; a policy engine configured to retrieve attributes from the user store connector corresponding to a user and use the attributes to evaluate access policies, if any, which are defined for protection of resources, to determine whether or not the user should be granted access to the resources; an admin component that is configured to enable the access policies to be defined relative to attributes and the resources; and a policy store configured to store the access policies.
