Abstract: A system and method can monitor one or more user sessions on a target system in a computing environment. An account managing system can capture a plurality of user session screen captures that are associated with said one or more user sessions on the target system. Furthermore, the account managing system can compare a user session screen capture, which is captured at a time during said one or more user sessions, with one or more user session screen captures that are recorded before the time. Then, the account managing system can record said user session screen capture if the target system is determined to be active at the time when said user session screen capture is captured.

Abstract: A system and method can support user account management in a computing environment. A managing server, such as a privileged account manager server, can use an agent to manage a target system in the computing environment. The agent on the target system can initiate a video processing task based on a plurality of user session screens recorded on the target system, wherein the video processing task encodes the plurality of user session screens into a video. Furthermore, the agent can determine whether a resource usage for performing the video processing task on the target system exceeds a threshold. Then, the agent can dynamically offload the video processing task to a managing server that operates to manage the target system, if the resource usage for performing the video processing task on the target system exceeds the threshold.

Abstract: A system and method can support user account management in a computing environment. The computing environment can include a video encoding pool to support load balancing and a managing server, such as a privileged account manager server. The video encoding pool includes a set of nodes that are able to perform one or more video processing tasks for another node. Furthermore, the managing server can receive a request from a managed node in the computing environment for delegating a video processing task, and can select one or more nodes from the video encoding pool to load babalance and to perform the video processing task.

Abstract: Authenticating an end user for a client application using a directory service can include receiving end user identity information and security information at the client application, sending a search request to the directory service for an entry associated with the end user identity information and, if a match is found, receiving a authentication token from the directory service associated with the end user identity information. The received authentication token can be compared with the security information. If the authentication token matches the security information, sending a request to update the directory service to indicate that successful authentication of the end user has occurred and if the authentication token does not match the security information, sending a request to update the directory service to indicate that a failed attempt at authentication of the end user has occurred.

Abstract: Methods, systems and machine-readable media for authenticating an end user for a client application are disclosed.
