Abstract: A system for providing secure access for a user to network accessible services. The system comprises a client software agent to generate a services request that is determined by a user. A services software agent is included and the service software agent is in electronic communication with the client software agent, to receive and fulfill the services request. A permissions software agent has a listing of user permissions for the network accessible services. The permission software agent is in communication with the services software agent and the services software agent requests user permissions from the permissions services agent so as to enable activation of the network accessible services selected by the user.

Abstract: A method and system for regulating use of a printer through key pair cryptography. A user encrypts an aspect of a print job with a private key of the user. The aspect may relate to the content of the print job and once encrypted may constitute a digital signature. The printer receives the print job, obtains a public key of the user, where the public key forms a key pair with the private key, and decodes the encrypted aspect. If decoding is successful, the printer outputs a document based on the print job. The present invention also provides for optional re-verification when the user is proximate to the printer, before the document is printed. The re-verification requires that the user prove local possession of the private key.
