Abstract: A system, apparatus, method, and machine readable medium are described for performing advanced authentication techniques and associated applications. For example, one embodiment of a method comprises: receiving a policy identifying a set of acceptable authentication capabilities; determining a set of client authentication capabilities; and filtering the set of acceptable authentication capabilities based on the determined set of client authentication capabilities to arrive at a filtered set of one or more authentication capabilities for authenticating a user of the client.

Abstract: A system, apparatus, method, and machine-readable medium are described for determining the authentication capabilities. For example, one embodiment of a method comprises: receiving a policy identifying a set of acceptable authentication capabilities; determining a set of client authentication capabilities; and filtering the set of acceptable authentication capabilities based on the determined set of client authentication capabilities to arrive at a filtered set of one or more authentication capabilities for authenticating a user of the client.

Abstract: A computer-implemented system and method for providing secure remote document access is provided. An index is created for the documents in a local document store. The resulting index is provided to a remote search server that operates independently of the local document store. Each document in the document store is also encrypted and provided to a remote document server that operates independently of the local document store. The encrypted documents can be located using the index on the remote search server and can be retrieved from the remote document server using an identifier obtained from the remote search server.

Abstract: Secure environments can be used to protect software application programs from piracy and to enforce licensing and operating conditions. To achieve these protections, a component should be selected and executed inside the secure environment. For maximum protection, the selected component should be one which performs a required or desirable part of the functionality of the application and not be easily emulated by patches as may be employed by software pirates.
