Abstract: A method for monitoring and securing interprogram communications between a plurality of business applications in a network includes gathering, using a computing device, information regarding communications between the plurality of business applications, the gathering step including steps of reading information from a log file in which information regarding each communication into and out of the business application is recorded, reading information from internal files of the business application and recording information obtained from data messages entering and leaving the business application, simplifying the gathered information, the simplifying step including normalizing the information into a common format based on a shared parameter value; and merging the normalized information together, classifying the information based on desired parameters, the classifying step including steps of designating a classification of the information based on content of the communication and designating certain information as

Abstract: A cut/copy action controller includes a command detector detects a cut/copy action in response to a user command; a rule applicability determiner determines, based on the source and/or destination, whether the cut/copy action satisfies a rule controlling the user action; and blocks the cut/copy action and/or the paste action in accordance with the rules. A report of the copy action may be transmitted to a log. The cut/copy action may automatically store content to an automated processor storage location such as a clipboard of a local host. A rule generator may generate a rule such that when the recurrence information indicates low recurrence of the information associated then the rule yields the blocking of the copy action.

Abstract: A method of classifying a digital document may include: identifying, by an automated data processor, a request for access to the digital document for a first user; determining user identifying information for the first user; obtaining, by the automated data processor, according to the user identifying information a first user characteristic including organizational affiliation of the first user or a job function of the first user; generating, by the automated data processor, based on the first user characteristic, a digital document classification for the digital document; associating the digital document classification with the digital document, by embedding the document classification in the digital document or logging the document classification in a log identifying the digital document. A user access determination for the digital document may be made according to the associated digital document classification.
