Patent number: 11934344Abstract: In certain instances, a data management application (software application) that manages moving data files, and the like, from a primary high-speed storage system. An end-user can configure the data management application for particular files via management policies. Based on the management policies, after a file is migrated from the primary storage system to a targeted secondary storage system, a breadcrumb pointing to a webpage for the migrated file is left behind in the primary storage system. The webpage can be used to manage the migrated file, such as moving the migrated file back to the primary storage system.Type: GrantFiled: July 28, 2022Date of Patent: March 19, 2024Assignee: Spectra Logic CorporationInventors: Jeffrey Leon Braunstein, David Lee Trachy, John Walter Kranz, Kumar Goswami, Krishna Subramanian, Mohit Dhawan, Michael Peercy

Patent number: 11934278Abstract: A data storage library is described that protects against a malware attack by providing a scheduled write window of time where archive data can be written to tape cartridges in the tape library on behalf of a client. At times outside of the write window, the tape library is disabled from writing any archive data to any of the tape cartridges in the tape library. Accordingly, the tape library is protected from a malicious entity attempting to download malware to tape cartridges in the tape library outside of the designated write windows. The tape library is configured to provide or otherwise read archived data from a tape cartridge both in the write window and outside of the write window.Type: GrantFiled: February 27, 2023Date of Patent: March 19, 2024Assignee: Spectra Logic CorporationInventors: Nathan Christopher Thompson, Matthew Thomas Starr, Matthew Ninesling, Walter Wong

Patent number: 11830528Abstract: Characterizing virgin tape cartridges in a characterization tape library and then sending the characterized tape cartridges to an end-user's library saves time and effort at the end-user's site. A characterized tape cartridge can be universally used in any compatible tape library if the virgin tape cartridge is characterized in a target calibration window that is within a specific range of heat and humidity. A calibration library can act as a ‘middleman’ receiving a virgin tape cartridge directly from an OEM. The virgin tape cartridge can be characterized followed by storing a record of the calibration in the tape cartridge's MAM while in the calibration library. The now post-characterized tape cartridge is then on to a user's tape library for use instead of just simply sending a virgin tape cartridge to the end user's library. The record in the MAM effectively changes the designation of the virgin tape cartridge to a post-calibrated tape cartridge.Type: GrantFiled: November 17, 2022Date of Patent: November 28, 2023Assignee: Spectra Logic CorporationInventors: Matthew John Ninesling, Jon Benson, Ian Cubbon

Patent number: 11829257Abstract: Due to the threat of virus attacks and ransom ware, an apparatus and methods for protecting backup storage devices from malicious software virus attacks is explored. An independent backup storage system is connected to a primary storage server over an undiscoverable communications line. The backup storage system is a read-only backup storage system most of the time buffering the backup storage system from a virus or attack on the primary storage server. The backup storage system changes from a read-only backup storage system to a read/write backup storage system only during a backup window of time where data is backed up to the backup storage system. A snapshot of the backup data is maintained in the backup storage system and can be made available at numerous points of time in the past if the data primary storage server becomes corrupted.Type: GrantFiled: May 18, 2023Date of Patent: November 28, 2023Assignee: Spectra Logic CorporationInventors: David Lee Trachy, Joshua Daniel Carter

Patent number: 11734446Abstract: A method for causing sending and receiving of an encrypted file between a sending user terminal and a receiving user terminal connected via a network to be performed in a secret state via a management server is provided. The sending user terminal encrypts an original file and then fragments the original file into a plurality of divided files, creates a plurality of combined files formed by combining a plurality of the divided files, and distributes and saves the combined files to which restoration information for opening the combines files has been added in a plurality of online storages. The receiving user terminal can open the combined files obtained from the online storages by using the restoration information received from the management server to extract the divided files included in the combined files, and can restore the original file from the divided files.Type: GrantFiled: July 11, 2019Date of Patent: August 22, 2023Assignees: GYOTOKUSHIKO CO., LTD., TECHNICAL INFRASTRUCTURE LOGIC CORPORATIONInventor: Masahiro Aoki

Patent number: 11528324Abstract: Due to slow download speeds from a cloud server to an end-user and the high costs associated therewith, described is a private environment that manages and utilizes resources provided by a public cloud and the storage horsepower of a private server. Certain embodiments envision syncing data objects across at least one cloud data bucket located in a public cloud and at least one server data bucket located in at least one private server. Certain aspects explore using a software platform that manages syncing data from a cloud data bucket to a server data bucket by way of asynchronous notifications from the cloud data bucket to the software platform. However, syncing data in the opposite direction from the server data bucket to the cloud data bucket is by way of direct syncing and not through asynchronous notifications. Conflict resolution is also described when two different data object versions are uploaded to two different data buckets before the data objects can be synced across the data buckets.Type: GrantFiled: February 9, 2021Date of Patent: December 13, 2022Assignee: Spectra Logic CorporationInventors: Joseph T Frank, David Lee Trachy

Patent number: 11453510Abstract: A device attachable to an aerial vehicle that incorporates electronics to control sensor position data and verify safety of aerial vehicle landing area. The device may be easily attached to an existing aerial vehicle. The device monitors sensor data from one or more distance measuring sensors and pressure sensors to set an angle of incidence for the distance measuring sensors. This pressure sensor derived angle setting allows for a continual data mapping of the aerial vehicles landing area to enhance and improve the landing zone.Type: GrantFiled: February 21, 2020Date of Patent: September 27, 2022Assignee: Opti-Logic CorporationInventor: Jonathan Murphy

Patent number: 11360674Abstract: A magazine-based data storage library in connection with a disk drive-based archive storage system is described that essentially generates parity data for tape formatted data streams (stored to tape cartridges) that do not align by way of data blocks or file marks. Data streams intended for tape storage sent to tape cartridges are also sent to a disk drive storage system via an encoder where parity of the data streams can be generated. More specifically, the encoder digitally formats tape blocks and tape marks (as well as other tape formatted structure) in a digital stream of data that can be added to other encoded digital streams of data to generate parity. To reconstruct a specific tape cartridge from a tape set, the encoded data from each of the tapes in the tape set are subtracted from the parity data and the remaining encoded data is decoded and sent to a designated tape cartridge.Type: GrantFiled: January 13, 2020Date of Patent: June 14, 2022Assignee: Spectra Logic CorporationInventor: Joshua Daniel Carter
