Abstract: A system for intermediated communication between applications running on the same computer is presented. The system routes communication between a first application and a second application through a data broker on a remote server to avoid direct communication between the applications. The first application may be a desktop application, such as a word processing application, that has an add-in installed to facilitate communication through the data broker. The second application may be a web browser that includes a web client implemented using standard functionality of the web browser, without an application-specific plug-in. The data broker operates on a remote server to receive and direct communication between the applications. By eliminating direct communication between the applications, the data broker improves system security and reliability by utilizing communication protocols and capabilities already existing within the computer.

Abstract: An enterprise biometric authentication system for use with a network of client computing devices, each client computing device executing an operating system with a biometric framework component including a client biometric service, a client engine adapter, a client engine wrapper, and a server subsystem further including a server database, a server storage adapter, a server engine adapter, and a server component. The client engine wrapper resides on a client computing device and is operable to intercept requests from the client biometric service to the client engine adapter and to transmit the requests. The server storage adapter may store and retrieve biometric templates from the server database. The server engine adapter may generate and compare biometric templates. The server component may receive the requests from the client engine wrapper, forward the requests to the server engine adapter, and transmit results of the requests to the client engine wrapper.

Abstract: A system and method for capturing electronic service requests and responses are disclosed. According to one aspect, the system is configured to monitor and/or capture electronic service requests and responses. Service providers and/or consumers may provide information that is utilized to determine an accessibility level that is to be associated with the electronic service requests and responses. The accessibility level may then be stored and/or associated with the electronic service request and/or response data for subsequent use by a user who meets the defined access criteria in order to derive valuable information from the electronic service request and response data that is stored. In some embodiments, a tiered architecture of access may be utilized to allow different users access to different types of service request and response data.
