Abstract: A server computer provides centralized key management services to several computers having encrypted files or file systems. The server computer receives key requests from the computers. The server computer issues a key to a computer that passes an integrity check. The key is used to unlock an encrypted file or file system in the computer. When the computer fails another integrity check after receiving the key, indicating a change in the security posture of the computer, the server computer may revoke the key automatically or upon receipt of an instruction from a key administrator.

Abstract: Disclosed are various embodiments that facilitate bootstrapping authentication of a user at a first device using a second device. The second device is authenticated for access to a user account via a first security credential. A second security credential is received by the second device. The second security credential is then sent to the first device. Subsequently, the second security credential is received from the first device, and the first device is authenticated for access to the user account. The second device includes visual cues to indicate a network page is legitimate, while the first device excludes visual cues to indicate the network page is legitimate.

Abstract: Methods and systems are provided to enable gradual expiration of credentials. Instead of depriving a user of all his access rights upon expiration of his credential (e.g., password), the user's access rights may be gradually restricted during a grace period after an expected or initial expiration time and/or before a final expiration time. The access right may be determined based on a duration from a time of the access request to the final expiration time or to the initial expiration time.
