Abstract: Methods, systems, and computer-readable media for providing reliable switching between different transport protocols (e.g., TCP and UDP) are presented herein. In some embodiments, a computing platform may stop transmission over a transport protocol. Subsequently, the computing platform may synchronize buffers between a client and a host. For example, the buffer may include acknowledgments for undelivered reliable packets between the client and the host. Next, the computing platform may resume transmission over a different transport protocol. In some embodiments, when establishing an initial connection between a client and a host, connections may be attempted in parallel over multiple transport protocols. After a connection over a first transport protocol is established, if a connection is later established over a second transport protocol, the connection may be transitioned to the second transport protocol. Also, ticketing semantics may be preserved in the switch between the different transport protocols.

Abstract: Methods, systems, computer-readable media, and apparatuses may provide virtualization of device management services (e.g., device drivers) dedicated managing a particular device and designed under for or under the assumption the particular device and the device management service will be utilized in a single session/user environment, so that virtual instances of the device management services may be used in a multi-session environment. Further, a redirection and/or virtualization layer may be created for each session in the multi-session environment to perform global database redirection, object name translation, and file system translation to ensure session boundaries are maintained and global/shared resources are not inappropriately altered by a session. As an example, the redirection/virtualization layer may redirect communications associated with a session and for a global resource to access a virtual instance of the resource specific to the session.

Abstract: The invention relates to an apparatus and for facilitating the reauthentication of a user using a client computer to a server computer. In one embodiment, the method includes the steps of receiving, by the server, confidential information during a first communication session between the server and a client, encrypting the confidential information with a key to create encrypted confidential information, and storing the encrypted confidential information in the server's memory. The method also includes the steps of transmitting, by the server, the key to the client and deleting, by the server, the key from the server's memory. When the server receives the key from the client during a second communication session, the server uses the key to decrypt the encrypted confidential information.
