Abstract: A computer system deploys monitoring agents that monitor the status and health of the computing resources. An analysis engine aggregates and analyzes event information from monitoring agents in order to support self-configuration, self-healing, self-optimization, and self-protection for managing the computer resources. If the analysis engine determines that a computing resource for a software application is approaching a critical status, the analysis engine may issue a command to that computing resource in accordance with a selected policy based on a detected event pattern. The command may indicate how the computing resource should change its behavior in order to minimize downtime for the software application as supported by that computing resource. The computer system may also support a distributed approach with a plurality of servers interacting with a central engine to manage the computer resources located at the servers.

Abstract: A user workstation stores a vendor identifier and encrypted data comprising a first string of randomized data, a second string of randomized data, and encrypted text, the encrypted text further comprising a first security answer. The user workstation receives credentials information and a second security answer. The user workstation then generates an encryption key. Further, the user workstation uses the encryption key to decrypt the encrypted text and extract the first security answer. Then, the user workstation compares the second security answer with the first security answer and authenticates the second username if the second security answer is the same as the first security answer.
