  • Patent number: 11863558
    Abstract: An approach is described for securely and automatically handling credentials when used for accessing endpoints, and/or applications and resources on the endpoints. The approach involves selecting and injecting credentials at an endpoint by an accessor to log into the endpoint, running applications or gaining access to resources on the endpoint, without full credential information traversing the accessor's machine.

  • Publication number: 20230421566
    Abstract: A privilege access management (PAM) appliance can receive an access request from an accessor device to access an endpoint device. The PAM appliance can establish a session via a secure connection between the accessor device and the endpoint device. The PAM appliance can transmit a request for credential information available for the accessor device to access the endpoint device from a credential management device. The credential management device can receive the request for credential information available for the accessor device to access the endpoint device. The credential management device can extract a set of credentials that are available for the accessor device from a plurality of credentials. The credential management device can provide at least one of the set of credentials to the endpoint device for the accessor device for the session.

  • Patent number: 10956559
    Abstract: An approach is described for securely and automatically handling credentials when used for accessing endpoints, and/or applications and resources on the endpoints, and more particularly accessing web endpoints and/or web applications and resources on the web endpoints. The approach involves selecting and injecting credentials at an endpoint by an accessor and/or protocol agent to log into the endpoint, running applications, or gaining access to resources on the endpoint, without full credential information traversing the accessor's machine.

  • Patent number: 9762613
    Abstract: A network appliance is configured to determine a security policy controlled by a system of an organization. The network appliance creates an association between the security policy and support agent access to the system. The network appliance creates portals where the access is based on the security policy and access includes connectivity for providing remote support service to the system from a remote support service disconnected from the system.
