Patent number: 11962661Abstract: A technique uses a graph neural network (GNN) to determine whether a particular entity under consideration is engaging in abusive network-related activity over a computing network in collaboration with other entities. In some applications, the particular entity is part of a bot attack aimed at fraudulently engaging with advertisements. The technique trains the GNN by performing machine learning on a training set that includes a plurality of nodes, edges, and node labels. In forming the training set, the technique associates a feature set with each node in the training set that describes the network activity exhibited by that node's entity. The technique then connects each pair of nodes in the training set with an edge if the feature sets of the pair satisfy a prescribed test for similarity. The technique assigns labels to at least some nodes to convey whether the nodes are associated abusive network-related activity.Type: GrantFiled: December 1, 2022Date of Patent: April 16, 2024Assignee: Microsoft Technology Licensing, LLCInventors: Rajvardhan Virendra Oak, Karan Khanna, Vacha Rajendra Dave

Patent number: 11799970Abstract: Technologies for cloud-hybrid remote browsing include a client device in communication with a cloud server. The client device opens browser tab in a web browser and opens a secure connection with a cloud server. The cloud server generates tab content for a web site with a browser engine and streams the tab content to the client device. The client device renders the tab content in the browser tab. The tab content may be serialized drawing commands or bitmap data. The client device may execute certain browser tabs locally, and may determine a hybrid tab strategy that indicates whether to execute each browser tab locally or with the cloud server. The hybrid tab strategy may be based on available computing resources of the client device. Other embodiments are described and claimed.Type: GrantFiled: March 8, 2023Date of Patent: October 24, 2023Assignee: Whist Technologies, Inc.Inventors: Suriya Kandaswamy, Roshan Padaki, Karthick Jeyapal, Philippe Noël, Ming Ying, Owen M.
