Abstract: A computer readable storage medium, system and method for improving automated testing systems to include a first and second behavioral data. The first behavioral data is collected periodically and the second behavioral data is collected in real time. The receipt of the first behavioral data and a second behavioral data are followed by the receipt of a system configuration template. A test case is updated based on the first and second behavioral data, and an automated test environment is reconfigured based on the first behavioral data, second behavioral data, and the system configuration template. The test executes in the automated test environment producing a test result.

Abstract: Context-based authentication in a secure network comprised of multiple programmable devices is described. A machine readable storage device or storage disk includes instructions that, when executed, cause a machine to obtain, from a programmable device, identity data and contextual data associated with a current authentication attempt by a user attempting to access a secure network. The contextual data indicates a number of authentication factors implementable by the programmable device in connection with the current authentication attempt. The instructions further cause the machine to determine a pattern associated with authentication of the user. The instructions further cause the machine to determine, based on the identity data, the number of authentication factors, and the pattern, a risk level associated with the current authentication attempt. The instructions further cause the machine to request additional identity data in response to the risk level not satisfying a threshold.

Abstract: Context-based authentication in a secure network comprised of multiple interconnected programmable devices is described. One technique includes receiving, from a programmable device, identity data and contextual data associated with a current authentication of a user attempting to access a secure network. The user is associated with the programmable device. The technique may include determining, based on the identity data and the contextual data, one or more patterns associated with the current authentication of the user. Furthermore, a risk level associated with the current authentication of the user may be determined based on the identity data, the contextual data, and the one or more patterns. In at least one scenario, access is granted to the secure network in response to the determined risk level. Other advantages and embodiments are described.
