  • Patent number: 10218693
    Abstract: Various embodiments are directed to a computer-implemented method for displaying a map of certificate relationships. A method can include retrieving certificate information for two or more servers and storing the retrieved certificate information in a memory. In addition, the method can include receiving a command to generate a map of certificate relationships. The command includes a command scope that identifies at least a first server of the two or more servers. Further, the method can include generating the map from the retrieved certificate information and rendering the map on a display device. The map includes the first server and a device having a certificate relationship with the first server.

  • Patent number: 10102398
    Abstract: A method for obfuscating data includes: reading values occurring in one or more fields of multiple records from a data source; storing a key value; for each of multiple of the records, generating an obfuscated value to replace an original value in a given field of the record using the key value such that the obfuscated value depends on the key value and is deterministically related to the original value; and storing the collection of obfuscated data including records that include obfuscated values in a data storage system.
