Abstract: A method of capturing and displaying a video in an immersive reality environment is disclosed. Each scene in the video file is constructed by joining an action segment and a static segment, wherein each of the action segment and the static segment in the scene are captured separately using a video production system. The video production system further conjoins each of the scenes together to construct the video file. A viewer may view each of the scenes in the video file on a playback device. The playback device may adaptively reconstruct each of the scenes in the video file based on the viewer's action. More specifically, the playback device adjusts the playback duration of each of the scenes based on the viewer's head movements. Further, the playback device also repositions the subsequent scenes based on a direction of gaze of the viewer.

Abstract: A query from a particular mobile device is identified that indicates an attempt, by the particular mobile device, to access a particular application. It is determined whether the particular application has been assessed for inclusion in one or more of the plurality of whitelists and, based on the determination, an assessment of the particular application can be performed, which can include accessing a copy of the particular application and assessing the copy of the particular application to identify one or more attributes of the particular application. For each of a plurality of whitelists, a determination is made whether the particular application should be included in the whitelist based on the attributes. Each whitelist can be associated with a respective one of a plurality of entities and based on a policy corresponding to the respective entity, each entity is associated with a respective plurality of mobile devices.

Abstract: A method is provided in one example embodiment that includes receiving a signal to enable a whitelist mode on a host in a network, terminating a process executing on the host if the process is not verified, and blocking execution of software objects on the host if the software objects are not represented on the whitelist. In more particular embodiments, the method also includes identifying the process on a process list that enumerates one or more processes executing on the host. Yet further embodiments include quarantining the host if a second process on the process list is a critical process and if the second process is not verified. More specific embodiments include identifying and restarting another process on the process list if process memory was modified.

Abstract: One or more attributes of an application in a plurality of applications is identified. A reputation score of the application is determined based at least in part on the identified attributes to determining whether the application should be included in a whitelist. The whitelist can be applied against a request to download the application on a mobile device. In some aspects, the whitelist can be generated through automated collection and analysis of applications available for download by one or more different types of mobile devices in one or more networks. In some aspects, the whitelist can be applied by blocking attempts to download applications determined not to be included in the whitelist.

Abstract: An application is identified as installed on a particular mobile device. An action involving the application is identified, the action to be performed using the particular mobile device. It is determined whether the action is an approved action based on at least one policy associated with the particular mobile device. A determination that the action is unapproved can results in an attempt to prevent the action. Further, in certain instances, a whitelist or blacklist can be generated based on determinations of whether identified application actions conform to one or more policies associated with the particular mobile device.
