Abstract: Generating a resource access control decision is provided. A user trust value associated with a user identifier of a user requesting access to a protected resource is modulated based on an estimated risk value associated with a context of a resource access request. The resource access control decision is generated based on the modulated user trust value associated with the user requesting access to the protected resource.

Abstract: A method of converting an original application into a cloud-hosted application includes splitting the original application into a plurality of application components along security relevant boundaries, mapping the application components to hosting infrastructure boundaries, and using a mechanism to enforce a privacy policy of a user. The mapping may include assigning each application component to a distinct virtual machine, which acts as a container for its assigned component.

Abstract: Controlling access to secure resources of a data processing system is provided. An input-to-output mapping of an application installed on the data processing system is generated that determines whether a secure resource in the data processing system is shared with an external entity associated with the application and under what specified conditions. It is determined whether the specified conditions exist during runtime of the application. In response to determining that the specified conditions do not exist during runtime of the application, sharing of the secure resource of the data processing system with the external entity associated with the application is prevented. In response to determining that the specified conditions do exist during runtime of the application, sharing of the secure resource of the data processing system with the external entity associated with the application is allowed.

Abstract: Embodiments include a network data collection and response system for enhancing security in an enterprise network providing a user-supplied computing device with access to the network. A network data collection and response system tracks network activity of the device and maintains a device inventory recording the device type and configuration information for the device along with a resource utilization profile for the device. The network data collection and response system detects high-risk or unauthorized network activity involving the device through passive monitoring without utilization of a data monitoring agent installed on the device and implements a response action to mitigate the high-risk or unauthorized network.
