Examples described herein relate to systems and methods for integrating and implementing ad hoc groups within a policy hierarchy environment. The ad hoc groups may implement particular guidelines for group membership, policy evaluations, and group actions. Systems and methods provide a framework for creating groups, removing groups, and associating groups, nodes, clients, and users with groups and policy. In some examples, there is provided a method for implementing ad hoc groups in a policy hierarchy environment, the method including: receiving a key orchestration operation request at a client associated with a node, a group, and a user; applying a sum of policies associated with the node to the request; applying a sum of policies associated with the group to the request; applying a sum of policies associated with the client to the request; applying a sum of policies associated with the user to the request; and evaluating the key orchestration operation request based on each of the sum of policies of the node, the group, the client, and the user.

System and method for associating encryption key management policy with device activity

Examples describe herein relate to chaining operations under a molecular encryption scheme, including, but not limited to, defining a composite operation, wherein the composite operation comprises two or more separate operations, receiving input for the composite operation, invoking the composite operation for the input, performing the composite operation based on the input, and determining output corresponding to the input.
