  • Publication number: 20220174064
    Abstract: Systems and methods for authenticating presumptively incompatible elements in a digital network are provided. A method may include receiving an access request from a client node in the network. The access request may be requesting access to an application in the network. The access request may be associated with a uniform resource identifier (“URI”). The method may include extracting a target application from the URI. The method may include determining an authentication protocol that is supported by the target application. The method may include generating, based on the authentication protocol, a series of one or more authentication tests that, in combination, satisfy the authentication protocol. The authentication tests may satisfy the authentication protocol even when the client node natively supports a different authentication protocol. The method may include executing the series of authentication tests to authenticate the client node vis-à-vis the target application.

  • Patent number: 11290356
    Abstract: Aspects of the disclosure relate to a method for inspecting a data stream. The method may include conveying the data stream through a multi-level data channel and inspection architecture. The architecture includes a multi-level data pipeline. The pipeline is formed from pipes arranged serially such that each output of one pipe provides an input to a successive one of the plurality of pipes. The pipeline receives the data stream at an upstream portion of the pipeline, and inspects the data in the data stream. Thereafter, the pipeline outputs inspected data at a downstream portion of the pipeline. The outputted inspected data becomes inputted date for a successive one of the pipes. A data manager may be configured to coordinate passage of the data into and out of the pipeline, and between one or more of the group of mechanisms.

  • Patent number: 11244060
    Abstract: A federated smart user identification (ID) having embedded tiered/hierarchical entitlements. The federated smart user ID comprises an encrypted key having multiple key strings that create sub-zones/barriers within the key. Each key string includes logical code and is attached/associated with at least one of (i) a computing system, service, application or the like, and (ii) an entitlement zone of the system, service, application or the like. Thus, the individual key strings define which systems, services, applications and the like the user has access to and the entitlements/authorizations within those systems, services, applications that the user has. In addition, key strings can dynamically be added to or deleted from the key to thereby change system/service access authorization and/or system/service-level entitlement.
