  • Computer device and method for managing privilege delegation
    Patent number: 11151286
    Abstract: Privilege delegation in a computer device is managed by invoking a utility by a first user account. A requested command is captured by an agent plugin which is provided as a plugin to the utility. The agent plugin sends a request message to an agent, which determines an outcome for the requested command including allowing or blocking. If allowed, a reply message from the agent instructs the agent plugin to provide command information to the utility to run the requested command by the operating system with delegated privileges of the second user account. The agent plugin can also be instructed to perform custom messaging, or passively handle the requested command via a child plugin.
