Systems And Methods For Provisioning A Database Of Trusted Users Stored Within One Or More Information Handling Systems - A simplified explanation of the abstract

This abstract first appeared for US patent application 18098216 titled 'Systems And Methods For Provisioning A Database Of Trusted Users Stored Within One Or More Information Handling Systems

The abstract describes systems and methods for managing a database of trusted users stored locally on information handling systems, utilizing a remote system to remotely manage and provision the database.

  • Provisioning a database of trusted users stored locally on information handling systems
  • Utilizing a database template and policy stored in a remote system for management
  • Securely backing up and restoring a locally stored database
  • Remotely managing enrollment and provisioning based on policy
  • Applying configuration settings globally to databases stored locally in multiple systems

Potential Applications: - Secure user authentication and access control - Data protection and privacy management - Remote management of user databases in distributed systems

Problems Solved: - Ensuring the security and integrity of user databases - Simplifying the management and provisioning of trusted user data - Facilitating remote access and control of local databases

Benefits: - Enhanced data security and access control - Streamlined management and provisioning processes - Improved scalability and flexibility in user database management

Commercial Applications: Title: Secure User Database Management System Description: This technology can be applied in industries such as cybersecurity, cloud computing, and data management software. It offers a reliable solution for organizations looking to enhance their user authentication and data protection capabilities.

Questions about User Database Management System: 1. How does this technology improve data security in information handling systems?

  - This technology enhances data security by securely managing and provisioning trusted user databases, ensuring only authorized users have access to sensitive information.

2. What are the key advantages of using a trusted multi-user database in distributed systems?

  - The use of a trusted multi-user database allows for centralized management and control of user data across multiple information handling systems, improving efficiency and security.


Original Abstract Submitted

Embodiments of systems and methods are provided for provisioning a database of trusted users stored locally on one or more information handling systems. The systems and methods disclosed herein may utilize a database of trusted users (otherwise referred to as a trusted multi-user database, or TMU database), a database template and/or policy stored within a remote system (e.g., a cloud or backend server) to remotely manage and provision a TMU database stored locally within one or more information handling systems. In doing so, the systems and methods disclosed herein may be used to securely back-up and restore a TMU database stored locally with an IHS, remotely manage enrollment and provisioning of a TMU database stored locally within one or more information handling systems based on policy, and apply TMU configuration settings globally to the TMU databases stored locally within a plurality of information handling systems.
