Claim 61:
62. A system for securing resources in a computing system through entity aggregation, the system comprising:
an aggregation rule configuration module that when executed on at least one processor is adapted to configure at least one rule by which entities of a plurality of entities are aggregated as members of an aggregation that is associated with an aggregation covenant that defines a set of computing environment capabilities granted to members of the association, wherein each of the plurality of entities is associated with corresponding entity-specific computing environment capabilities;
an aggregation configuration module that when executed on at least one processor is adapted to define an instance of at least one entity of the plurality of entities as a member of the aggregation based on the at least one rule, wherein a member of the aggregation is bound by a combination of capabilities including capabilities granted to the member and a subset of the corresponding entity-specific computing environment capabilities of the at least one entity that is based on a correspondence thereof with the capabilities granted to the member; and
the at least one processor adapted to control operation of at least one member of the aggregation by overriding a capability of the entity-specific computing environment capabilities for the at least one member with a corresponding capability granted to the at least one member.
