Patent number: 11757899Abstract: Aspects of a privileged identity management system and method provide users with the ability to request elevated privileges to perform tasks on computing systems and software applications. The privileged identity management system and method also provides users with the ability to extend the elevated privileges to access privileged features or perform tasks using elevated privileges. The privileged identity management system and method utilize a different device that is readily available to the user in order to provide communications relating to the elevated privileges.Type: GrantFiled: January 19, 2021Date of Patent: September 12, 2023Assignee: Microsoft Technology Licensing, LLCInventors: Shimi Ezra, Natan Kfir, Noam Ben-Yochanan

Patent number: 11539765Abstract: Technology for interoperability is disclosed by enabling the sharing of user context or preferences for a computing experience across computing devices, operating systems, applications, or locations. A platform and application programming interface (API) are provided for computer applications and services to store and retrieve context data associated with a computing experience. Access to the context data for sharing may be managed by an access controller, which enables a user to manage access permissions for the sharing of the context data. The context data may be defined according to a common schema, which specifies the information for sharing and may be communicated using common communication channels or protocols. Thus context data may be shared across nearly any application or service including those developed in different computer programming languages or operating on different types of computing devices or devices running different operating systems or by different software developers.Type: GrantFiled: September 2, 2020Date of Patent: December 27, 2022Assignee: MICROSOFT TECHNOLOGY LICENSING, LLCInventors: Boaz Ein-Gil, Shimi Ezra, Shira Weinberg, Mikael Sitruk
