  • Secure inter-process communications
    Patent number: 8566581
    Abstract: Securing inter-process communications includes receiving, from a device that supports a first process that is an instantiation of a first application being executed, a request to initiate inter-process communications. Securing inter-process communications also includes replying to the device with a request for information of a first digital certificate that uniquely authenticates an identity of the first process. An identity of a second process that is a distinct instantiation of the first application is authenticated using a second digital certificate distinct from the first digital certificate.

  • Secure inter-process communications
    Patent number: 7877608
    Abstract: Inter-process communications between a first process and a second process are secured. A first process recognizes that inter-process communications must be initiated with a second process. A first computer that supports the first process submits a request to initiate inter-process communications with a second computer that supports the second process. The second computer replies to a request to initiate inter-process communications by replying to the first computer with a request for information of a digital certificate that authenticates the first process.
