  • Patent number: 10831460
    Abstract: A method of administering a computing system, including a plurality of computing devices. The method includes selecting an application for download to a computing device, prior to downloading the application, decompiling the application, searching for string patterns in the decompiled application, replacing the string patterns in the decompiled application with another string pattern, the another string pattern being configured to intercept at least one of a system event or an Application Programming Interface (API) call, and associating logic with the application. The logic is configured to interact with the application via the at least one system event or API call, the logic is configured to provide additional functions to the application, the logic is configured to be shared between the application and at least one other application, and the logic is stored separate from the application.

  • Patent number: 10110665
    Abstract: An environment for facilitating the management of content for users associated with specific partner networks is provided. Users may be granted access to such specific partner networks in accordance with each user's affiliation with one or more organizations. In accordance with the above, a content management system facilitates the content/information exchange by accepting software applications from content providers. Additionally, the content management system accepts software application specifications or manifests from partner network administrators. Accordingly, the content management system can audit and recommend actions to users regarding applicable software application based one user organizational associations. Still further, the content management system can facilitate requests from affiliated users for specific types of content that can be forwarded to content providers and later made available to affiliated users.
