  • Publication number: 20060069590
    Abstract: Intelligent Trust Management provides a centralized security facility that gives system components a flexible mechanism for implementing security policies. System components such as applications create a request describing an action that needs to be checked against an appropriate security policy. The request is given to a trust system that determines which policy object applies to the request, and may pass request arguments to the policy. The policy objects include executable code that uses any arguments along with dynamically obtained variable information to make a decision. The decision is returned to the system component, which then operates accordingly. Policy objects may maintain state and interface with the user independent of the system component in order to obtain information to make their decisions. Policy objects may call other policy objects and/or mathematically combine the results of other policy objects to make a decision.

  • Publication number: 20050138363
    Abstract: A system for using a certificate authority to first provide a customer with a digital certificate, and then having a relying party that receives that digital certificate access a status authority (the certificate authority or its designated agent) to receive a reissued certificate on that certificate. The reissued certificate has a much shorter validity period, which ensures that the information is timely. Moreover, the certificate may serve as a receipt, including an accumulated record of the signatures (digital certificates) and policy applied throughout the financial transaction. As a result, each transfer of the transaction forms a digitally-signed chain of evidence recording each step of the transaction and policy applied thereto, whereby risk may be assumed and charged for appropriately and in accordance with the risk purchaser's policy.

  • Publication number: 20050115641
    Abstract: A weaving horse assembly for supporting a basket form during construction of a woven basket. The weaving horse assembly comprises a support structure and a clamp arm including a U-shaped frame. The base of the U-shaped frame is rotatably mounted to the support structure such that the clamp arm is movable from a generally vertical position to a generally horizontal position. The U-shaped frame has upper and lower arms each having a free end, with the free end of the lower arm defining a form pole for supporting a basket form and the free end of the upper arm defining a clamp for securing a basket bottom to the basket form.
