  • Publication number: 20250055691
    Abstract: Disclosed are various embodiments for securely sharing confidential data between applications. A deep link request can be received from a first computing device, the deep link request identifying a set of data to be shared and a deep link schema. A token that represents the set of data can then be created. Also, a deep link that complies with the deep link schema and includes the token can also be created. The deep link and the token can then be returned to the first computing device. Later, a data request containing the token can be received from a second computing device. The set of data associated with the token can then be return to the second computing device.

  • Patent number: 9984245
    Abstract: Methods, systems, and computer readable media for providing a secure virtual research space are disclosed. According to one aspect, a system for providing a secure virtual research space includes: a data grid for storing and managing data to be shared among multiple collaborative partners, the data grid comprising at least one data storage device; at least one virtual network appliance, each virtual network appliance comprising a hardware processor for providing controlled access to shared data on the data grid by a user; and a data leakage protection mechanism for preventing unauthorized transfer of data out of the secure virtual research space.

  • Publication number: 20150123787
    Abstract: A method for the central monitoring and management of safety and location functions for lone workers is provided. A lone worker monitoring profile is created in a monitoring database on a monitoring server including a designation of periodic check-in frequency. Periodic remote check-ins are requested from the monitoring server to the clients. In addition to the remote check-ins, periodic sensor data is captured to the monitoring database, as well as immediate notification when immediate alert conditions are detected on the client devices. The monitoring software on the monitoring server monitors data in respect of monitored devices, and where safety exceptions are detected a notification is generated via the user interface or interface of the monitoring server. Administration of the system including provisioning client devices on the system is all done via the monitoring server as well.

  • Publication number: 20050246495
    Abstract: A system for exchanging digital data among a plurality of hand-held computer devices. Digital signals are written by a first hand-held device to a mini-cartridge that mini-cartridge is inter-operable among a class of hand-held devices, each of which is equipped with a mini-disk drive. A common digital data format is employed to further facilitate exchange of data between devices.

  • Publication number: 20040249828
    Abstract: The present invention provides an automated method and system for auditing infrastructures in a managed region of a resource management system. A resource management region queries the endpoints in the system, retrieves reference infrastructure configuration data, and stores the data in a database. At a later time, the resource management region again queries the endpoints and the resource management region itself, and retrieves current infrastructure configuration data. Changes in the state of the system infrastructure from the time the reference infrastructure data is generated to the time the current infrastructure data is generated is found by comparing the reference infrastructure data to the current infrastructure data. The resource management region transmits a notification to the system administrator if unauthorized changes are found.
