  • Patent number: 7937745
    Abstract: A system and method for use with a voice-capable system, includes but is not limited to a method including receiving a request from a user computationally networked to the voice-capable system, the request to designate a network interaction as a monitored network interaction using the security interface, and receiving one or more user-defined designations during the monitored network interaction, the one or more user-defined designations to designate one or more data as requiring the voice-capable system to perform one or more operations with respect to the one or more data.

  • Patent number: 7934260
    Abstract: An apparatus, device, method, computer program product, and system are described that in some instances may provide access to at least one bypass network, provide distribution of an anti-viral agent onto a communications network associated with a virus, using the at least one bypass network, and provide an entity-sponsored assurance of a transmission characteristic of the at least one bypass network with respect to the providing the distribution.

  • Patent number: 7917956
    Abstract: An apparatus, device, methods, computer program product, and system are described that determine a virus associated with a communications network, and distribute an anti-viral agent onto the communications network using a bypass network, the bypass network configured to provide transmission of the anti-viral agent with at least one of a higher transmission speed, a higher transmission reliability, a higher transmission security, and/or a physically-separate transmission path, relative to transmission of the virus on the communications network.
