  • Securing data across execution contexts
    Patent number: 11354441
    Abstract: Embodiments herein relate to new and useful systems and methods for tokenization across code trust boundaries. An embodiment includes a method for securing data across execution contexts in a computing device. The method includes determining that first data is to be passed from a first code in a first execution context to a second code in a second execution context. The method further includes, based on determining that the first data is to be passed, tokenizing the first data to generate tokenized first data, wherein tokenizing the first data comprises substituting the first data with second data that is based on the first data to secure the first data from the second code, the second data being the tokenized first data. The method further includes passing the tokenized first data from the first code to the second code.

  • Systems and methods for intrinsic runtime security
    Patent number: 10929528
    Abstract: A system for intrinsic runtime security includes an application code repository, a security code repository, a trusted execution context, a first sandboxed execution context and a policy enforcement module, operating based on security policy, that enables the first sandboxed execution context to modify objects without enabling unrestricted access of the first sandboxed execution context to original prototypes of the objects.
