System and method for application and user-based class of security
First Claim
1. A method for automatically adjusting the security level for a given application and specific user comprising the steps of:
- determining a security level assigned to the application;
determining whether the security level is dependent upon a type of specific user;
executing the application without security if no security level is assigned to the application and if the security level is not dependent upon the type of specific user;
executing the application with security if the application has an assigned security level and if the security level is not dependent upon the type of specific user;
assigning the security level if the security is dependent upon the type of specific user; and
executing the application with the assigned security level dependent upon the type of specific user.

Abstract
A method for automatically adjusting the security level for a given application and specific user includes the steps of determining a security level assigned to the application, determining whether the security level is dependent upon a type of specific user, executing the application without security if no security level is assigned to the application and if the security level is not dependent upon the type of specific user, executing the application with security if the application has an assigned security level and if the security level is not dependent upon the type of specific user, assigning the security level if the security is dependent upon the type of specific user, and executing the application with the assigned security level dependent upon the type of specific user.

4. A system for automatically adjusting the security level for a given application and specific user comprising:
-
a memory comprising program instructions; and
a processor coupled to the memory, the processor operable to execute the program instructions to perform the operations of determining a security level assigned to the application, determining whether the security level is dependent upon a type of specific user, executing the application without security if no security level is assigned to the application and if the security level is not dependent upon the type of specific user, executing the application with security if the application has an assigned security level and if the security level is not dependent upon the type of specific user, assigning the security level if the security is dependent upon the type of specific user, and executing the application with the assigned security level dependent upon the type of specific user. - View Dependent Claims (5, 6)

7. A computer-readable medium containing one or more instructions for automatically adjusting the security level for a given application and specific user comprising:
-
a code segment for determining a security level assigned to the application;
a code segment for determining whether the security level is dependent upon a type of specific user;
a code segment for executing the application without security if no security level is assigned to the application and if the security level is not dependent upon the type of specific user;
a code segment for executing the application with security if the application has an assigned security level and if the security level is not dependent upon the type of specific user;
a code segment for assigning the security level if the security is dependent upon the type of specific user; and
a code segment for executing the application with the assigned security level dependent upon the type of specific user. - View Dependent Claims (8, 9)
