Patent number: 11232068Abstract: A unified document retention management system exposes a retention policy management portal to enable a user to selectively prescribe a unified retention policy to multiple productivity platforms to deploy the unified retention policy across the user selected productivity platforms. Data retention rules of the unified retention policy may define actions to be performed with respect to files that satisfy certain predefined conditions. An exemplary data retention rule prescribes a retention age threshold to files that have been tagged with a particular label. Files may be manually labeled by users and/or may be automatically labeled by the system in accordance with one or more smart label rules. The retention age threshold may be enforced for such tagged files by preventing the files from being deleted and/or modified prior to them reaching the retention age threshold. Then the files may automatically be purged from system storage upon reaching the retention age threshold.Type: GrantFiled: March 27, 2017Date of Patent: January 25, 2022Assignee: Microsoft Technology Licensing, LLCInventors: Kannan Dhanasekaran, Tho Van Nguyen, Le-Wu Tung, Nakul Garg, Mingquan Xue, Gagandeep Kohli, Dheepak Ramaswamy

Patent number: 11232084Abstract: Initially, a database schema is parsed and a table tree structure is created delineating the relationships between data that are identified in the schema. In addition to accommodating relationships between main tables of data, the table tree structure also accommodates possible side tables of data, and possible circular references between tables, should such be encountered when parsing the schema. Subsequently, a migration mechanism consumes the generated table tree structure and iteratively migrates data in accordance therewith. Individual layers of the table tree structure are migrated consecutively with referenced layers being migrated prior to referencing layers. Circular links are accommodated through temporary null values, and side tables are accommodated during migration of the referencing main table. The iterative process provides completeness and fault tolerance/failure recovery.Type: GrantFiled: June 26, 2020Date of Patent: January 25, 2022Assignee: Microsoft Technology Licensing, LLCInventor: Igor Taranov

Patent number: 11233800Abstract: Methods of secure resource authorization for external identities using remote principal objects are performed by systems and devices. An external entity creates a user group and defines entitlements to an owning entity's secure resource as a set of permissions for the group. An immutable access template with the permissions and an access policy for the secure resource are provided to the owning entity for approval. On approval, a remote principal object is created in the owner directory according to the permissions and access policy. A remote principal that is a group member requests access via an interface to the owner domain using external domain credentials. The identity of the remote principal is verified against the remote principal object by a token service. Verification causes generation and issuance of a token, with the enumerated entitlements, to the remote principal interface affecting a redirect for access to the secure resource.Type: GrantFiled: May 29, 2020Date of Patent: January 25, 2022Assignee: MICROSOFT TECHNOLOGY LICENSING, LLCInventors: Charles Prakash Rao Dasari, Maksym Yaryn, Debashis Choudhury, Jeffrey A.
