  • Patent number: 11693849
    Abstract: Methods, information handling systems and computer readable media are disclosed for generation of consistent structured data hash values across platforms and structured data formats. In one embodiment, a method includes identifying, at an information handling system, a set of data segments within a set of structured data and expressing the set of structured data in a standard format. This embodiment of the method further includes, for each of the data segments within the set of data segments, applying a hash algorithm to produce a data segment hash value and obtaining a standardized identifier for the data segment. The method continues with assembling an aggregate hash code comprising the standardized identifier and the data segment hash value for each of the data segments, and confirming an association of the aggregate hash code with the set of structured data.

  • Patent number: 10594701
    Abstract: In one embodiment, a method is performed by a computer system. The method includes receiving base attribute values of a registrant device. The method further includes determining similarities of the base attribute values to a reference string to yield base similarity values. The method also includes registering the registrant device for policy enforcement using the base similarity values. Furthermore, the method includes, responsive to a trigger, determining target attribute values of a target device. Also, the method includes determining similarities of the target attribute values to the reference string to yield target similarity values. Moreover, the method includes, responsive to the target similarity values satisfying a similarity threshold in relation to the base similarity values, configuring policy enforcement such that the target device is treated as the registrant device.

  • Patent number: 10405155
    Abstract: The present disclosure provides for information handling systems and methods to configure and manage any number of heterogeneous devices. In various embodiments, a shared device configuration is simultaneously applied to a selected group of otherwise incompatible heterogeneous devices that may use different communication protocols and operating systems. Certain embodiments create and maintain a database of configuration and operational information that is accessible across platforms. A group device configuration may be automatically applied to all devices in the selected group via a batch command. Some embodiments allow independent heterogeneous devices that have similar functionality to have different device configuration settings.

  • Patent number: 10242212
    Abstract: Embodiments of the present disclosure include systems and methods for providing query service of secured contents. A data collection service collects data and security context associated with the data from a data source and stores the data with the security attributes in a datastore, where the security attributes are derived from the security context and used to determine access to the data so that access to the data is consistent with the security context. Upon receiving a query and a user context of a requester making the query of the datastore, a set of query results is obtained. Based on the user context and security attributes, it is determined whether the requestor has a proper right to access the query results. If the requestor has a proper right to access the query results, access to the query results is granted.

  • Patent number: 9922352
    Abstract: A multidimensional synopsis of a stream of textual data pertaining to a particular subject can be generated. To produce the multidimensional synopsis, multiple dimensions that each includes concepts can be identified. The stream of textual data can then be analyzed to identify the occurrence of the concepts within elements of the stream. The multidimensional synopsis can then be produced by generating a score for each intersecting set of concepts from the multiple dimensions. Therefore, each score can generally represent a prevalence of the corresponding intersecting set of concepts within the stream of textual data.
