Computer security and management system
First Claim
Patent Images
1. A computer implemented method for providing system security and resource management, comprising:
- managing event messages by a master control processor between system handlers according to security system policies;
processing network messages by a network handler between client and server computers;
inserting native and third party event messages received by an insertion handler into the master control processor for processing by other system handlers;
detecting and processing event message signatures by a signature handler from alarm, system, and insertion events for conversion into system alarm messages for action by the other system handlers; and
performing actions by an action handler in response to action requests generated by the other system handlers and received from the master control processor, wherein the master control processor routes messages to and from the system handlers without being involved in security and resource management functions distributed among the system handlers.

Abstract
The present invention provides a generic distributed command, control, and communication framework that allows computer systems, devices, and operational personnel to interact with the network as a unified entity. The present invention provides these services by building upon a core communication architecture that permits local or remote execution of mobile program code, static execution of program code, flexible communication formats, self-healing network techniques, and expansion by the addition of new system modules, software handlers, or mobile autonomous agents.
