Appl. No.:

12/825532

Inventors:

Roger H. Nestler - Clay NY, US
Daniel T. Dang - Jamesville NY, US

Assignee:

ITT MANUFACTURING ENTERPRISES, INC. - Wilmington DE

International Classification:

G06F 3/048
G06F 17/30

US Classification:

707769, 715764, 707E17014

Abstract:

A dynamic icon overlay system of a present invention embodiment dynamically generates icon overlays to be applied to a primary file icon of a target file. The icon overlays convey information regarding the target file and are relevant to an end user. The icon overlay system determines icon overlays to be applied to the primary file icon based on attributes associated with an end user of the target file that are correlated with attributes of the target file itself. The system applies the icon overlay to the primary icon and displays the primary icon with the applied icon overlay at an end user system. The applied icon overlay for the same target file may vary for different end users based on user attributes.

International Classification:

G06F 21/00

US Classification:

726 1, 726 21

Abstract:

A method and system for dynamically managing access to assets such as an electronic document or a hardware component, using policies that comprise one or more dynamic access controls, which are linked to data sources such as databases or web services. The access controls are dynamic because, each time the policy is invoked, the policy and its component access controls must be evaluated with respect to the current information in the linked data sources.

Abstract:

A method and system for dynamically managing entity membership in a role, using role configurations that comprise one or more dynamic role filters, which are linked to data sources such as databases or web services. The role filters are dynamic because, each time a role membership is queried, the role configuration and its component role filters must be evaluated with respect to the current information in the linked data sources. The roles may be used in role-based access control systems or entity identification systems.
