  • Patent number: 11863558
    Abstract: An approach is described for securely and automatically handling credentials when used for accessing endpoints, and/or applications and resources on the endpoints. The approach involves selecting and injecting credentials at an endpoint by an accessor to log into the endpoint, running applications or gaining access to resources on the endpoint, without full credential information traversing the accessor's machine.

  • Publication number: 20140020052
    Abstract: To control privileges and access to resources on a per-process basis, an administrator creates a rule that may be applied to modify a process's token. The rule includes an application-criterion set and changes to be made to the groups and/or privileges of a token. The rule is set as a policy within a group policy object (GPO), where a GPO is associated with one or more groups of computers. When a GPO containing a rule is applied to a computer, a driver installed on the computer accesses the rule(s) anytime a logged-on user executes a process. If the executed process satisfies the criterion set of a rule the changes contained within the rule are made to the process token, and the user has expanded and/or contracted access and/or privileges for only that process.
