What changed

The USPTO granted Patent US12592943B2 to WideField Security Inc. for methods of identity posture management and security session analysis. The patent covers receiving telemetry signals from entities in a session environment, determining underlying trails fragmented across multiple distributed sessions, correlating signal hierarchies, constructing session hierarchies, determining meta session posture, and enforcing security policies based on posture. The technology classifies under H04L 63/1416, H04L 63/1441, H04L 63/20, and H04L 63/1425.

Technology companies developing identity management, security session monitoring, or behavioral analytics products should review this patent for potential licensing implications or freedom-to-operate considerations. Patent claims may affect product development roadmaps in the identity posture management space. No immediate compliance actions are required as this is an IP grant rather than a regulatory requirement.

What to do next

Review patent claims for potential infringement if developing similar identity posture management technology
Evaluate licensing needs if implementing comparable session analysis methods
Consider patent landscape review for identity security and telemetry correlation products

Abstract

Methods, systems, and computer programs are presented for stitching a meta session with an underlying trail fragmented across multiple distributed sessions. One method includes receiving telemetry signals from entities in a session environment that includes at least one identity of a user engaged with applications via respective meta sessions. An underlying trail for each meta session is determined, where the underlying trail is fragmented across two or more sessions with two or more entities. For a first meta session with a first application for the identity of the user, several operations are performed, including correlating a signal hierarchy based on the telemetry signals; constructing, based on the correlated signal hierarchy, a session hierarchy underlying the first meta session distributed across the one or more entities; determining a posture of the first meta session based on the constructed session hierarchy; and enforcing a security policy based on the determined posture.
