20090025078 | SECURE SHARING OF TRANSPORT LAYER SECURITY SESSION KEYS WITH TRUSTED ENFORCEMENT POINTS - Embodiments of the present invention address deficiencies of the art in respect to security enforcement point operability in a TLS secured communications path and provide a novel and non-obvious method, system and computer program product for the secure sharing of TLS session keys with trusted enforcement points. In one embodiment of the invention, a method for securely sharing TLS session keys with trusted enforcement points can be provided. The method can include conducting a TLS handshake with a TLS client to extract and decrypt a session key for a TLS session with the TLS client traversing at least one security enforcement point. The method further can include providing the session key to a communicatively coupled key server for distribution to the at least one security enforcement point. Finally, the method can include engaging in secure communications with the TLS client over the TLS session. | 01-22-2009 |
20090129591 | Techniques for Securing Document Content in Print and Electronic Form - A technique for securing selected document content includes receiving, at a printer, an unsecured electronic document. Selected content of the electronic document is then encrypted, with an encryption key, at the printer. A paper document whose content includes the encrypted selected content of the electronic document is then printed. The encrypted selected content of the paper document is unintelligible prior to decryption with a decryption key. | 05-21-2009 |

20130104046 | Role Engineering Scoping and Management - Mechanisms are provided for performing a role engineering project for applying security roles to access operations targeting resources. A plurality of data objects representing one or more user identities, permissions, and resources of an organization computing system are received. One or more filter criteria for filtering the plurality of data objects to generate a subset of data objects for consideration during the role engineering project are received. The one or more filter criteria specify a scope of the role engineering project. The one or more filter criteria are applied to generate the subset of data objects. Role engineering project operations are performed on the subset of data objects to generate one or more security roles. The one or more security roles are deployed to the organization computing system to control access operations targeting resources of the organization computing system. | 04-25-2013 |

20140325612 | USING SOCIAL NETWORKING THRESHOLDS IN ACCESS CONTROL DECISIONS - A method, program product and apparatus for controlling access to profile information, multi-media resources or social network functions of a first user by a second user not listed on a friend or group listing of the first user. An application retrieves a threshold criteria for access control and social network statistics in response to an attempted access by an entity without an appropriate privilege. The application compares the statistics to the threshold. Then, if the statistics meet the threshold criteria, the application allows access. | 10-30-2014 |
