20080256249 | CLIENT AGENTS FOR OBTAINING ATTRIBUTES FROM UNAVAILABLE CLIENTS - A computer system and methods for creating an agency relationship among clients of a computer system with respect to personal privileged, or otherwise sensitive permissions and/or attributes, is described. The system and methods allow a querying client to obtain permission and/or attributes from a queried client, even if the queried client is unavailable. | 10-16-2008 |
20090119266 | DISTRIBUTED MANAGEMENT FRAMEWORK FOR PERSONAL ATTRIBUTES - A technique for distributed management of attributes includes propagating attributes based upon attribute-granularity permissions. An example of a system according to the technique may include a server, coupled to a first client and a second client, that includes a module that receives attribute data from the first client; a permissions database where first permissions associated with the first client are set at the individual attribute level for the second client; an engine for updating the permissions database and for validating the first permissions for the second client; and an engine for distributing first client updates based on validated permissions to destinations associated with the one or more second destination stores. | 05-07-2009 |
20090125523 | DISTRIBUTED MANAGEMENT FRAMEWORK FOR PERSONAL ATTRIBUTES - A technique for distributed management of attributes includes propagating attributes based upon attribute-granularity permissions. An example of a system according to the technique may include a server, coupled to a first client and a second client, that includes a module that receives attribute data from the first client; a permissions database where first permissions associated with the first client are set at the individual attribute level for the second client; an engine for updating the permissions database and for validating the first permissions for the second client; and an engine for distributing first client updates based on validated permissions to destinations associated with the one or more second destination stores. | 05-14-2009 |
20100191762 | CLIENT AGENTS FOR OBTAINING ATTRIBUTES FROM UNAVAILABLE CLIENTS - Creating an agency relationship among clients of a computer system with respect to personal privileged, or otherwise sensitive permissions and/or attributes, is described. The technique enables a querying client to obtain permission and/or attributes from a queried client, even if the queried client is unavailable. | 07-29-2010 |
20110137946 | INDIVIDUALIZED DATA SHARING - Granting permissions for attributes in a distributed data store involves implementing a federated control system. The system can include dynamic permissions granted to content blobs. Acknowledgment of dynamic permissions facilitates identification of users that receive content to enable restoring data on a machine following data loss. Acceptance of dynamic permissions can further facilitate automatic updates to data, or providing content blobs in response to changes in user attributes. | 06-09-2011 |
20130275472 | INDIVIDUALIZED DATA SHARING - A method may include: maintaining one or more attributes of a first user; maintaining a risk profile scheme configured by the first user, the risk profile scheme comprising a passive permission table indicating whether a second user has permission to the one or more attributes; allowing the first user to grant dynamic permissions to the second user to access the one or more attributes in accordance with the risk profile scheme; allowing the first user to perform content blobulation of the one or more attributes; and allowing the first user to perform content reblobulation of the one or more attributes in accordance with the risk profile scheme. | 10-17-2013 |
20140181148 | Distributed Management Framework for Personal Attributes - A technique for distributed management of attributes includes propagating attributes based upon attribute-granularity permissions. An example of a system according to the technique may include a server, coupled to a first client and a second client, that includes a module that receives attribute data from the first client; a permissions database where first permissions associated with the first client are set at the individual attribute level for the second client; an engine for updating the permissions database and for validating the first permissions for the second client; and an engine for distributing first client updates based on validated permissions to destinations associated with the one or more second destination stores. | 06-26-2014 |
