Abstract
Code is associated to a target based on an inspection of the code. A target may be a device or a user. A number of code components may be inspected at one time and then transferred or otherwise associated to a target based on the target's profile. A code component may be a policy of an information management system.
Claims19
A method comprising:
- providing a plurality of code components, wherein each code component comprises a conditional expression having a policy abstraction and a corresponding action that will be performed when the conditional expression is satisfied;
- inspecting contents of the plurality of code components;
- based on a result of the inspection of the contents of the code components, determining which of the devices to associate a code component with;
- using at least one processor, determining a first code component is relevant to a first device;
- altering the first code component obtain a modified first code component;
- and
- transferring the modified first code component, and not the first code component, to the first device, wherein the transferring the modified first code component to the first specific target comprises transferring less data than would transferring the first code component.

- and
- transferring the modified first code component, and not the first code component, to the first device, wherein the transferring the modified first code component to the first specific target comprises transferring less data than would transferring the first code component and the modified first code component includes a reference to a first policy abstraction whose definition statement is not transferred with the modified first code component.

A method comprising:
- providing a plurality of policies stored at a server, wherein each policy comprises a code component comprising a conditional expression having a policy abstraction and a corresponding action that will be performed when the conditional expression is satisfied, and each policy abstraction has a corresponding definition statement;
- at the server, analyzing a first policy of the plurality of policies to determine whether the first policy is relevant to a first set of specific target attributes without inspecting a first code component of the first policy;
- at the server, upon determining the first policy is relevant to the first set of specific target attributes, inspecting the first code component of the first policy;
- at the server, when the first policy is determined to be relevant to the first set of specific target attributes, based upon the inspecting of the first code component of the first policy, altering the first code component of the first policy to obtain a modified first code component of the first policy;
- when the first policy is determined to be relevant to the first set of specific target attributes, transferring the first policy to a first specific target with the first set of specific target attributes by transferring the modified first code component to the first specific target;
- and
- when the first policy is determined not to be relevant to the first set of specific target attributes, not transferring the first policy to the first specific target.
