Appl. No.:

09/208776

Inventors:

Ronald Patrick Doyle - Raleigh NC
John Raithel Hind - Raleigh NC
Julie Hayes King - Raleigh NC

Assignee:

International Business Machines Corporation - Armonk NY

International Classification:

G06F 1730

US Classification:

707 9, 707 1, 707100, 707101, 709227, 709229, 713155, 713156, 380258, 380281

Abstract:

A data processing system for accessing a host computer. A smart card is detected at the data processing system, which in turn queries the smart card for an indication of a location of user information. A secure channel is established with the location of user information. User information is retrieved associated with the smart card from the location. A connection is established to the host computer with the user information. Key to this invention is the ability to use this infrastructure for authentication when a smart card cannot be used at the data processing system.

Abstract:

A method, system, and computer program product for using a digital certificate to access legacy host applications and/or data which are protected by a host-based security system such as RACF (Resource Access Control Facility, a product offered by the IBM Corporation) and which typically require a separate user identification and password. Use of the present invention enables the client to access the host applications and/or data using a single system log on, without requiring modification to host programs.

US Classification:

713182, 713201, 713156, 713185, 707 9, 705 65

Abstract:

The present invention provides a method, system, and computer program product for enabling a user to provide a single system sign-on for accessing one or more legacy host applications and/or one or more systems which provide legacy host data (such as legacy database systems) during a secure host access session which is authenticated using a digital certificate and is protected by a host-based security system, such as RACF (Resource Access Control Facility, a product offered by the IBM Corporation), where the same set of credentials must be provided more than once during the secure session. The subsequent provision of the credentials may be transparent to the user, and does not require change to existing legacy applications or systems.

Abstract:

The present invention provides a method, system, and computer program product which enables changing user credentials that are used to access legacy host applications and/or systems which provide legacy host data during a secure host access session which is authenticated using a digital certificate and is protected by a host-based security system, such as RACF (Resource Access Control Facility, a product offered by the IBM Corporation), where these changed credentials are used to authenticate a user after previously-provided credentials have been used for authentication earlier in the same session. The changed credentials may belong to the same user, where that user happens to have a different user ID and/or password for different legacy host applications and wishes to change from accessing one legacy host application to accessing another. Or, the changed credentials may be used to enable a different user to interact with the same legacy host application used by the previously-authenticated user. The disclosed technique may also be used advantageously to authenticate a user for accessing an application, when the user's credentials are not changing.

International Business Machines Corporation - Armonk NY

International Classification:

H04L 9/00

US Classification:

713185, 709227, 726 8

Abstract:

The present invention provides methods, systems, computer program products, and methods of doing business whereby legacy host application/system access is integrated with single sign-on in a modem distributed computing environment. A security token used for signing on to the modem computing environment is leveraged, and is mapped to user credentials for the legacy host environment. These user credentials are programmatically inserted into a legacy host data stream, thereby giving the end user the look and feel of seamless access to all applications/systems, including not only modem computing applications/systems but also those residing on (or accessible through) legacy hosts. In addition to providing users with the advantages of single sign-on, the disclosed techniques enable limiting the number of user identifiers and passwords an enterprise has to manage.

Abstract:

The present invention provides methods, systems, computer program products, and methods of doing business whereby legacy host application/system access is integrated with single sign-on in a modern distributed computing environment. A security token used for signing on to the modern computing environment is leveraged, and is mapped to user credentials for the legacy host environment. These user credentials are programmatically inserted into a legacy host data stream, thereby giving the end user the look and feel of seamless access to all applications/systems, including not only modern computing applications/systems but also those residing on (or accessible through) legacy hosts.

US Classification:

711162

Abstract:

A core dump is processed to locate and optionally alter sensitive information. A core dump copy is created from at least a portion of an original core dump. Also, at least one input parameter is provided that corresponds to select information to be identified in the core dump copy and address information associated with the core dump copy is defined that corresponds to at least one of addresses where the select information can be altered and addresses where the select information should not be altered. Each occurrence of the select information located within the core dump copy is identified and optionally replaced with predetermined replacement data if the occurrence of the select information is within the addresses where the select information can be altered.

Abstract:

Methods, systems, and computer program products for programmatically generating presentation style information for use when subsequently rendering a collection of legacy host data values. In preferred embodiments, the style information is a style sheet document, and the generation is based upon values stored in a prior art map that is defined for used when displaying the collection of legacy host data values. Improvements are therefore provided in the user interface techniques which allow users to interact with legacy host applications. The generated presentation style information may be treated as a default presentation style, and may be modified (for example, by a user) for a more customized presentation style. The programmatic generation may be performed in a tool created specifically for this purpose, or in logic which augments an existing tool (such as a style sheet editor).
