Abstract: Provided are techniques for secure matching supporting fuzzy data. A first bloom filter for a first data element is retrieved, wherein each of the characters in the data element has been encrypted with a beginning offset position of the character and encrypted with an end offset position of the character to produce two encrypted values that are added to the first bloom filter. A second bloom filter for a second data element is retrieved. The first bloom filter and the second bloom filter are compared to determine whether there is a match between the first data element and the second data element.

Abstract: A method, system and computer-usable medium are disclosed for validating user credentials submitted to a data source by an untrusted intermediary. An untrusted intermediary attempts to access a data source on behalf of a user. The untrusted intermediary challenges the user to provide credentials of the type and format required to access the data provided by the data source. The user's trust client connects to an authentication service and identification credentials of the required type and format are generated. The identification credentials are conveyed to the user's trust client, which then provides them to the user's client, which in turn conveys them to the untrusted intermediary. The untrusted intermediary then presents the identification credentials to an authentication plug-in of the data source. The authentication plug-in validates the authenticity of the provided credentials with their associated authentication service.
