In an example, a method is described that includes dividing an input image into a plurality of strips, where each strip is smaller than a whole of the input image. A plurality of binary images is then generated, where each of the binary images corresponds to one of the strips. Connected component labeling is performed on the binary images, one binary image at a time. An object map for the input image is then generated based on the results of the connected component labeling.

Method, system and infrastructures for managing certificates for platform providers are described. A platform provider provides a platform to host a plurality of virtual sites designated individually with custom specified hostnames. According to one aspect of the present invention, traffic originating from a web browser to a designated website with a hostname is directed to a server (herein 'control server') designed for serving a corresponding certificate to establish a secure session between the browser and the designated website being hosted on a server (herein 'platform server') operated by a platform provider. In operation, the corresponding certificate may be retrieved from a cache in or accessible by the control server, or the control server is caused to generate a certificate based on the access request from the browser after a verification process.

A system and method for delegating permissions to a third party are presented. A request to access a first computing resource of a computer server is received from a first user. The first user is prompted to supply a first authentication credential for access to the first computing resource of the computer server and the first authentication credential is received from the first user. After the first authentication credential is received, a request to access a second computing resource of the computer server is received from the first user. An authentication database is accessed to identify a second user associated with the second computing resource, and a request for a second authentication credential is transmitted to a second user. The second authentication credential is received from the second user. When the second authentication credential is received from the second user, the first user is given access to the second computing resource.
