  • Preemptive loading of protected data for streaming mobile devices
    Patent number: 9692848

The proxy server determines a usage pattern based on a portion of the first user content consumed by the secure client application, prioritizes unrequested user content according to the usage pattern, and populates the proxy server cache with at least a portion of the unrequested user content based on priority.
