  • Publication number: 20240113974
    Abstract: Mobile management method, system and client. Method includes receiving a DNS query for a host name from an application on client; retrieving reputation data associated with host name from a local cache on client; and determining a policy based on host name and the reputation data. Based on determined policy for the host name, blocking attempted network flows to a host corresponding to host name to produce blocked attempted network flows. Method also includes sending attempted network flow metadata related to the blocked attempted network flows to a collector on client; transmitting the attempted network flow metadata from the collector to a VPN server pool via a VPN tunnel; and producing an anomaly report from the transmitted attempted network flow metadata. The anomaly report includes at least one of anomalies, cohorts, trends, location boundaries, detected network security issues, detected compromised clients and/or optimized network usage.

  • Publication number: 20150103090
    Abstract: A method that generates a chromakey image and then generates a color corrected, spill suppressed chromakey image. The application identifies the edges of non-transparent objects in the image and determines whether the edges are dark. If the edges are dark, then the application subtracts the color corrected, spill suppressed chromakey image from the chromakey image. The subtraction generates an outline image that includes a bright outline of the objects with the dark edges, while the objects themselves in the outline image are almost entirely black. The application then darkens, based on the outline image, the pixels of the color corrected, spill suppressed chromakey image.

  • Publication number: 20150104101
    Abstract: An application that receives and edits image data from a light field camera. The application determines a distance from the light field camera for each portion of the image. The application of some embodiments uses the depth information to break the image data down into layers based on the depths of the objects in the image. In some embodiments, the layers are determined based on a histogram that plots the fraction of an image at a particular depth against the depths of the image.

  • Publication number: 20150103093
    Abstract: An image organizing and editing application receives and edits the colors of a target image in relation to the colors of a reference image. The application displays vectorscope representations of the colors of a target image and the colors of a reference image. The application receives adjustments to the vectorscope representation of the target image and adjusts the colors of the target image according to the received adjustments to the representation.
