Abstract: A security server qualifies the execution of programs for networked host computer systems using a database storing pre-qualified program signatures and defined policy rules associating execution permission qualifiers with execution control values. The server executes a control program in response to execution requests received via a communications network interface from identifiable hosts, wherein a predetermined execution request received from a predetermined host computer system includes an identification of a program load request, request context related data, and a secure program signature. The control program determines an execution control value based on an evaluation of the execution request relative to the pre-qualified program signatures and defined policy rules. The execution control value is then returned to the predetermined host computer system to securely qualify the execution of the program identified from the program load request.

Abstract: A catalyst is synthesized by a method in which a catalytic metal such as platinum or another noble metal is dispersed onto a support member. A transition metal macrocycle is also adsorbed onto the support, and the support is heat treated so as to at least partially pyrolyze the macrocycle and anchor the transition metal to the support. The catalytic metal is alloyed with the transition metal either during the pyrolysis step, or in a separate step. The catalyst has significant utility in a variety of applications including use as an oxygen reduction catalyst in fuel cells.

Abstract: A data server platform includes a security file system layer interposed between the platform operating system kernel and file system. The secure file system layer is structured to implement a file access control function that selectively constrains data transfer operations initiated through the operating system kernel by an application program to transfer file data through the file system with respect to a persistent data store. A file access controller, implemented independent of the operating system kernel, is coupled to the security file system layer and supports the file access control function by defining permitted file data transfers through the file system. Management of the file access controller separate from the data server platform ensures that any security breach of the platform operating system kernel cannot compromise the function of the security file system layer.

Abstract: The secure trust relationship between communicating programs is established at any policy defined level down to individual program instances. Policy enforcement modules installed on host computer systems support qualified encrypted communications channels between discretely selected program instances. Program instances are qualified to establish communication channels, each defined by a unique session encryption key, based on an evaluation of security data including the individual process execution contexts, user authorizations, and access attributes of the program instances. A security appliance server performs the policy-based qualification based on a mutually interdependent evaluation of the security data for both the communications channel source and target program instances.
