Methods and systems for providing integration between an enterprise security management configuration tool and third party network traffic software are disclosed. By defining a software interface through which configuration data for third party networking devices can be queried and configuration data accessed, the enterprise security management configuration tool can compare overall network traffic to the configuration provided by the third party networking software to assess an overall security level within an enterprise network.

Third party integration with enterprise security management tool

Methods and systems for defining a solution within an enterprise security management configuration server is disclosed. One method includes, based on network concordance data, grouping a plurality of nodes within an enterprise network into a plurality of profiles and identifying one or more channels among the plurality of profiles within a project of an enterprise security management configuration tool. The method also includes displaying the plurality of profiles in a configuration user interface, and automatically identifying one or more solutions among the plurality of profiles. The method further includes collapsing each of the one or more solutions into a single icon within the configuration user interface, each single icon representing a solution.

Solution definition for enterprise security management

Methods and systems for configuring security management settings within an enterprise network are disclosed. One method includes receiving network concordance data at an enterprise security management configuration tool from a plurality of nodes within an enterprise network, and, based on the network concordance data, classifying each of the plurality of nodes based on an affinitization between the two or more nodes. The method also includes defining a profile for one or more nodes or grouped nodes, and defining one or more solutions within the enterprise security management configuration tool, the one or more solutions each including one or more nodes of the plurality of nodes. The method also includes receiving a deployment selection identifying at least one of the one or more solutions, and, in response to the deployment selection, generating a security settings file describing security settings for each of the one or more nodes.

Enterprise security management tool

Systems and methods for executing multiple operating systems on a computing system without rebooting the computing system are disclosed. Embodiments may include installing a first OS and a second OS on a computing system. Embodiments may further include executing the first OS on hardware resources of the computing system. Some embodiments may also include suspending execution of the first OS, and executing the second OS on the hardware resources while execution of the first OS is suspended.

Execution of multiple operating systems without rebooting

Methods and systems for configuring a security topology in an enterprise security management configuration tool are disclosed. One method includes manipulating an icon representing one or more nodes in a configuration user interface of an enterprise security management configuration tool to associate the one or more nodes into a manual grouping of nodes in an enterprise network; and, after manipulating the icon, selecting, from a tool palette of the configuration user interface, an automatic association tool, the automatic association tool determining an association among a plurality of nodes into a plurality of automated logical groupings of nodes. In some cases, the manual grouping of nodes is different from the plurality of automated logical groupings, and the automatic association tool preserves the manual grouping of nodes.

User interface features for enterprise security management

Methods and systems for assigning security settings to one or more nodes within an enterprise network are disclosed. One method includes receiving network concordance data at an enterprise security management configuration tool from a plurality of nodes within an enterprise network, and receiving, in a configuration user interface, a selection of an affinitization level selected from a plurality of discrete affinitization levels, each of the discrete affinitization levels corresponding to a different extent to which nodes within an enterprise are grouped into profiles. The method also includes automatically grouping each of the plurality of nodes identified in the network concordance data into a plurality of profiles based on the selected affinitization level, and applying a common security policy to each of the nodes included in one of the plurality of profiles.

Multi-level affinitization for enterprise security management

Methods and systems for periodically generating and managing passwords for one or more websites of users are disclosed. The users are provided with the ability to automatically replace their old passwords with new passwords for their one or more website accounts. The users can set a pre-determined frequency at which their passwords are to be updated and replaced with new passwords. The users can further define additional one or more rules based on which their passwords are updated. The methods and systems are further configured to auto log into user's website accounts with the updated passwords.

Cloud-based active password manager

A reduced service partition system and method for a host computing device having a host processor and system resources including memory divided into most privileged system memory and less privileged user memory. The system includes a virtualization boot application that operates in the less privileged user memory and divides the host computing device into a resource management partition, at least one virtual service partition and at least one virtual guest partition. The virtual guest partition provides a virtualization environment for at least one guest operating system. The virtual service partition provides a virtualization environment for the basic operations of the virtualization system. The resource management partition maintains a resource database for use in managing the use of the host processor and the system resources. A monitor operates in the most privileged system memory, and maintains guest applications in the at least one virtual guest partition within memory space allocated by the virtual service partition to the at least one virtual guest partition. A context switch between the at least one monitor and the respective virtual guest partitions and the virtual service partition controls multitask processing in the partitions on the at least one host processor.
