Techniques for application data scrubbing, reporting, and analysis are presented. A plurality of data sources are analyzed in accordance with their schemas and matching rules. Merging rules are applied to merge a number of data types across the data sources together. A report is produced for inspection and a master data source is generated. The processing can be iterated with rules modified in response to the report for purposes of refining the master data source.

Techniques for schema production and transformation are presented. Enterprise data from a plurality of data sources is analyzed to produce patterns to types of enterprise data. Merging rules group patterns together with entries across multiple schemas. Each schema associated with one of the data sources. A single entry is then produced within a single generic schema for each group of patterns. The generic schema can then be used to suggest changes to enterprise data policy and to make the enterprise data interoperable across the enterprise in an automated fashion.

A method and system for dynamic assignment of entitlements is provided. A trigger is received from an identity store. A membership generator generates a list of members from user objects stored in the identity store. The generated list is compared against a previously generated list for changes. The changes are placed into an attribute modify specification, an entitlement grant specification, and an entitlement revoked specification. Using these specifications, a policy decision module routes the changes to policy enforcement modules. The policy enforcement modules implement the changes to entitlements.

Remotely controlling a UNIX-based system includes prompting a first user at a UNIX-based machine for permission for a second user at a machine remotely-located from the UNIX-based machine to control the UNIX-based machine and if the first user grants permission, enabling the second user to use the UNIX-based machine through the machine remotely-located from the UNIX-based machine.
