  • Patent number: 11403116
    Abstract: Described embodiments provide systems and methods for stateless modification of operating system registry data across network boundaries. The system includes a processor coupled to memory and configured to execute instructions to receive, within a first network, a request to apply a modification to an operating system registry of a second device within a second network different from the first network. The processor queues data describing the requested modification, receives a polling request from the second device, and transmits, to the second device responsive to the polling request, the queued data describing the requested modification for the second device to apply to the operating system registry of the second device. For example, the requested modification may be to create a key, to create a value, to delete a key, or to delete a value.

  • Patent number: 11403306
    Abstract: Techniques for implementing a non-relational database that makes efficient use of collections within the database. For one or more collections, two or more sub-collections can be created for storing documents. Each collection can be configured as a single partition entity or a partitioned entity within the database. Each sub-collection is identified by a sub-collection identifier. If the collection is configured as a partitioned entity, then a partition key can be determined for documents to be accessed in the collection. The partition key can be extended with the sub-collection ID to form a compound property (sub-collection ID, partition key) that determines placements of the respective documents in the identified sub-collection across partitions of the collection. If the collection is configured as a single partition entity, then a field for the partition key is ignored and the respective documents are placed in the identified sub-collection within the single partition of the collection.

  • Patent number: 11403373
    Abstract: Embodiments described include systems and methods for adding watermarks using an embedded browser. To provide protection to sensitive information from a network application rendered via an embedded browser of a client application, the client application can generate an overlay with a digital watermark, and apply the overlay over the embedded browser. The client application can selectively generate such overlays, and can customize the format of the digital watermark according to the information rendered on the embedded browser. The watermark can remain with any information that is imaged from the embedded browser, and provides a deterrent against misuse of the information via image capture from a computer screen for instance. By adjusting properties (e.g., contrast) of such an image, the watermark can be made visible and detectable, thus allowing such imaging activities and information to be tracked.

  • Patent number: 11405309
    Abstract: Described embodiments provide systems and methods for selecting communication paths for applications sensitive to bursty packet drops. A device intermediary to a client and a server may identify an application for which packets are to be communicated between the client and the server. The device may determine a sensitivity level of the application to a network disruption affecting the packets. The device may estimate, for each path between the client and the server for communicating the one or more packets, a path quality for the path indicating a likelihood that the network disruption affects the one or more packets. The device may select path for communicating the packets based on the sensitivity level of the application and the path quality. The device may communicate the packets between the client and the server via the path.

  • Patent number: 11405326
    Abstract: This disclosure is directed to embodiments of systems and methods for performing compression of data in a queue. A device intermediary between a client and a server may determine that a length of time to move existing data maintained in a queue from the queue exceeds a predefined threshold. The device may identify, responsive to the determination, a first quantity of the existing data to undergo compression, and a second quantity of the existing data according to a compression ratio of the compression. The device may reserve, according to the second quantity, a first portion of the queue that maintained the first quantity of the existing data, to place compressed data obtained from applying the compression on the first quantity of the existing. The device may place incoming data into the queue beyond the reserved first portion of the queue.

  • Patent number: 11392876
    Abstract: Methods, systems, and computer-readable media for deploying and implementing enterprise policies that control augmented reality computing functions are presented. A computing device may receive policy information defining policies that, when implemented, control capture of augmented renderings. After receiving the policy information, the computing device may intercept a request to capture at least one view having at least one augmented reality element. In response to intercepting the request, the computing device may determine whether the policies allow capture of views comprising augmented reality elements. Based on determining that the policies allow capture, the computing device may store view information associated with the at least one view having the at least one augmented reality element. Based on determining that the policies do not allow capture, the computing device may prevent the at least one view having the at least one augmented reality element from being captured.

  • Patent number: 11392552
    Abstract: A user may, when using an application of a first computing device, intend to share data with other computing devices. To share the data, sharing processes may be performed by the first computing device, any device that the data is to be shared with, and one or more network locations. The sharing processes may determine whether the data is available at any of the devices or at any of the one or more network locations. Any device or network location where the data is available may be selected as a source of the data. Any device where the data is unavailable may be sent the data from one or more sources. Once received, the data may be stored to enable access by an application.

  • Patent number: 11394682
    Abstract: Described embodiments provide systems and method for reordering the IP addresses within a DNS response. The servers associated with a domain can often be located across multiple locations. The paths from a client to each of those different servers can have different link qualities. Additionally, the connection between the client and the domain can have different quality requirements. The present solution can consider the link qualities and the connection quality requirements to reorder the IP addresses within a DNS response. By reordering the IP addresses, the system can control to which of the servers the client connects and can ensure that the connection is made over a path that can fulfill the connection's quality requirements.
