  • Shared access with account restriction and promotion utilizing virtual accounts
    Patent number: 9300671
    Abstract: A restricted account may be created responsive to a successful login by a user for a shared account. The restricted account may have fewer access privileges to resources of the computer system than the shared account. The user may have access to the operating system through the restricted account rather than the shared account. The user is prompted for higher authentication information responsive to a request by the user to promote the restricted account to a higher authentication account during the session. The restricted account is promoted to the higher authentication account during the session.
