Abstract: A credential store provides for secure storage of credentials. A credential stored in the credential store is encrypted with the public key of a user owning the credential. A first user may provide a credential owned by the first user to a second user. The first user may add credentials owned by the first user to the credential store. An administrator may manage users of the credential store without having the ability to provide credentials to those users.

Abstract: Systems and methods for stateless system management are described. Examples include a method wherein a user sends the management system a request to act upon a managed system. The management system determines whether the user is authorized for the requested action. Upon authorization, the management system looks up an automation principal, which is a security principal native to the managed system. The management system retrieves connecting credentials for the automation principal, and connects to the managed system using the retrieved credentials. Once the managed system is connected, the management system performs the requested action on the managed system, and sends the result back to the user.

Abstract: Systems and methods for monitoring changes to a digital file are described. Examples include a computer system for monitoring digital file changes that includes a processing unit that accepts a request to write an input data stream to a first file accessible within the computer system, and a storage device coupled to the processing unit and including a second file (the first file being a virtualized representation of the second file). The processing unit parses an input attribute from the input data stream, wherein the attribute includes an input identifier and an associated input value. The processing unit signals an event if the input attribute matches an identifier designated as a monitored attribute identifier of the second file.
