Abstract: A vulnerability checking tool for a host computer designed to examine security logs of attempted logins and revocations, to detect systematic attacks of a wide variety, and to generate a report file that can be examined for information concerning these types of events. Host computer files which contain data regarding attempted accesses and logins are used to create an event list based upon event criteria. The list is evaluated using a “floating period” time frame which advances by single event steps while no violation is detected within a particular floating period, and which advances by “jumps” when violations are detected in a time period so as to reduce the possibility of “over reporting” violations related to the same set of events.

Abstract: A system and method to facilitate development, installation, support and maintenance of international versions of application programs and support tools. Language-specific user interface (UI) messages are placed into a message file which is compiled to produce a message source code file and a message definitions and symbols file. The application source code is modified or originally developed to utilize the functions provided by the message source code file, and a language-specific unified application executable program is created by compiling and linking. This language-specific executable program can then be installed on an end users computer without necessity of installing related resource or message catalog files, and without necessity of properly setting environment variables. Application programs for users in alternate languages are produced by translating the message file, and repeating the compiling and linking steps, without need to modify the application source code.
