  • Patent number: 9720809
    Abstract: Debugging capabilities for software running in a cloud-computing environment are disclosed. Embodiments enable developers to debug any process running on a virtual machine hosted in a remote data center, virtual network, or cloud services environment over the Internet through a secured connection without manually installing and configuring a remote debugging monitor. A debugger module is dynamically installed and configured on a remote machine over the Internet through an extension model. In another embodiment, a debugger module is dynamically installed and configured on a remote machine over the Internet through a remote scripting approach. A secure connection is automatically established between debugger application components and debugging components on the remote machine.

  • Patent number: 8122136
    Abstract: When establishing a communications channel to a wireless network, through a wireless connection, a computerized device receives an Internet protocol (IP) address from a Dynamic Host Configuration Protocol (DHCP) server associated with the wireless network. The computerized device is configured with a table or list of IP addresses associated with wireless networks requiring a VPN or secure connection. The computerized device compares the IP address received from the DHCP server with the IP address entries of the table stored by the computerized device. If the computerized device detects a correspondence between the IP address received from the DHCP server and an IP address entry within the table, the computerized device automatically initiates a secure or VPN connection with the wireless network associated with the DHCP server.
