  • Patent number: 10389797
    Abstract: A method, system, and medium are provided for sharing items residing on a computing device. Items selected for sharing can be made simultaneously available to users on a local network and to users outside of the local network. A remote sharing service allows access to copies of items based on user identifiers associated. Local attributes associated with items are modified such that the user identifiers are associated with the items for providing access via a local network.
    Type: Grant

  • Patent number: 9515832
    Abstract: The techniques and systems described herein present various implementations of a model for authenticating processes for execution and specifying and enforcing permission restrictions on system resources for processes and users. In some implementations, a binary file for an application, program, or process may be augmented to include a digital signature encrypted with a key such that an operating system may subsequently authenticate the digital signature. Once the binary file has been authenticated, the operating system may create a process and tag the process with metadata indicating the type of permissions that are allowed for the process. The metadata may correspond to a particular access level for specifying resource permissions.

  • Patent number: 9088580
    Abstract: For a particular request to access a resource, both a user associated with the request and a service through which the request is made are identified. Whether requested access to a resource is permitted is determined based on a user associated with the requested access and a service through which the access is requested. This determination can be made based on an access control entry of an access control list corresponding to the resource, the access control entry identifying access to the resource that is permitted to the user when accessing the resource through the service.

  • Publication number: 20080184329
    Abstract: One or more labels are associated with a data object. One or more policies are associated with each of the labels. Based on the labels associated with the data objects, the associated policies are dispatched to policy decision engines to take one or more actions to enforce the policy. The labels, and the policies associated with the labels, are chosen by a business administrator within an enterprise, and are implemented by an Information Technology (IT) administrator. The association between labels and polices allows the policy to be applied to an object to be decoupled from the characterization of the nature of the object, or its purpose and/or role within an enterprise, business purpose and/or context of the object. Examples of policies are: access, backup, retention, isolation, audit, etc.
