Abstract: A method and a system for providing access by an application to data stored in a security data zone of a cloud platform are provided. The method includes determining, in response to a query received from a querying application of the cloud platform, credentials for a security data zone based on determining whether a first access token included in the received query belongs to an application registered at an access manager module of the cloud platform, and whether the user specified in the received query is allowed to use the registered application. The method also includes determining a second access token to the querying application generated based on the determined credentials. The querying application uses a returned second access token to obtain access to data stored in the security data zone to be processed by the querying application.

Abstract: A data selection system and a method for data selection by means of a touch-sensitive surface are disclosed. The method comprises sensing a first touch position on the touch-sensitive surface and tracking a movement from the first touch position to a second touch position. The method additionally comprises calculating at least one geometric parameter from the first touch position, the second touch position and a reference position, and effecting a data selection within a data range in dependence on the geometric parameter.
