System and method for dynamically enabling components to implement data transfer security mechanisms
First Claim
Patent Images
1. A system comprising:
- an interface system on a first component that communicates with a data type handler module and accesses at least one interface provided by the data type handler module; and
a security system that accesses at least one interface provided by the data type handler module to obtain a data transfer security mechanism and implements the data transfer security mechanism.

Abstract
A system and method for implementing data transfer security mechanisms. The method includes a first component transferring a data type handler object to a second component. The second interface invokes an interface accessible through the date type handler object which includes instructions that are executed by the second component to implement a data transfer security mechanism. Further, the data type handler interface can be encrypted, include cryptographic keys, and/or include digital signatures.
