Abstract: A method for validating a Uniform Resource Locator (URL) includes generating electronic media content including the URL, generating a Certificate Signing Request (CSR) including the URL, sending the CSR to a certificate signing server, receiving a signed certificate corresponding to the CSR from the certificate signing server, and encoding the signed certificate as metadata in the electronic media content and/or encoding a serial number associated with the signed certificate as metadata in the electronic media content. A user can send the URL to another user through a chat message, an email, a word processing document or other business application, or a document which has a URL through a pen drive, email, or chat message. The certificate-based mechanism is used to validate the origin (sender) of the URL so that the recipients know that the URL can be accessed without having to separately analyze the security risks.

Abstract: Methods and systems for secure authentication of a first device through attestation by one or more other devices are described herein. A server may receive, from an untrusted client device, a request for access to one or more services associated with the server. The server may generate a challenge code. The server may send, to the untrusted client device, a request for attestation of the untrusted client device. The server may receive, from a trusted client device, an indication that the trusted client device attests to an identity of the untrusted client device. Based on the indication that the trusted client device attests to the identity of the untrusted client device, the server may grant, to the untrusted client device, access to the one or more services associated with the server.

Abstract: An important aspect of augmented reality (AR) is that digital information, such as rendered images of AR scenes and objects, are integrated with the user's view of the real world in real time. However, transmitting large images over the network may negatively impact the real time aspect of the AR experience. Methods and systems for dynamic image compression based on perceived viewing distance are described herein. In some implementations, image compression of streaming AR content is based on real world distances of AR objects relative to a user or client device. In some implementations, image compression of streaming AR content is based on relative depth information. In some implementations, image compression of streaming AR content is based on a type of information or content associated with an AR object. The dynamic image compression based on perceived viewing distance provided by the systems and methods disclosed herein may also be applied to video codecs.

Abstract: In accordance with one disclosed method, a determination may be made that a user has provided a first input to a client device to begin taking an action with respect to an application presented in a first window of an operating system while the first window is an active window of the operating system. It may then be determined that a second window has become the active window of the operating system, and that the user has not provided a second input to the client device to complete the action with respect to the application. Based at least in part on the second window having become the active window and the user not having provided the second input, the client device may be caused to present a notification indicative of the action being incomplete.

Abstract: A computer system is provided. The computer system includes a memory and at least one processor coupled to the memory and configured to protect against theft of user credentials. The at least one processor is further configured to recognize a uniform resource locator (URL) to which a web browser is navigating, as a URL for which protection is to be provided. The recognition is based on an absence of the URL from a history of visited URLs for which a password has been entered. The at least one processor is further configured to extract a character sequence of selected length that is entered into a field of a website associated with the recognized URL; compare an encryption of the character sequence to entries in a list of encrypted partial passwords of the same selected length; and perform a security action in response to a match resulting from the comparison.

Abstract: System and methods discussed for automatically optimizing application and notification delivery based on user preferences and historical application usage. Applications that a user is likely to want to use at the present time or in the near future are displayed in an organizationally distinct way in an application catalog so they are easy to find and are pre-loaded on an application delivery server so they are available with minimal system lag caused by application loading processes. Application notifications are also optimized such that notifications that are likely to be relevant to users at the current time are identified and presented to them in an organizationally distinct way.

Abstract: Methods and systems for multi-application video conferencing are described herein.

The computing device may receive, from the user computing device, input (e.g., video, audio, commands). The computing device may convert, based on an identity of the group video call application, the input into a format compatible with the group video call application. The computing device may then provide, to the group video call application, the converted input.

Abstract: Described embodiments provide systems and methods for preventing unauthorized access of information from a resource. A device intermediary between a client and a server in a session can receive a first request from the client that includes a first uniform resource locator (URL) of the server. The device may receive a response from the server that includes a second URL. The device may update the response by including a client identifier for the session in a set-cookie field, obfuscating the second URL into a string, and replacing the second URL in the response with the string. The device may receive a second request that includes a candidate client identifier, and a third URL. The device may determine whether the second request is valid, by at least one of: matching the candidate client identifier with the client identifier, and determining whether the second URL is recoverable using the third URL.
