Abstract: Methods and systems of providing a universal privileged access management solution to enable users to securely share web applications through remote browser isolation (RBI). The web applications may be hosted in a SAAS (Software As A Services) cloud or in a private network. For privileged access of web applications that do not support SSO, the universal privileged access management solution implements cloud-based software services including Remote Browser Isolation (RBI), Zero Trust Network Access (ZTNA) and password vault. For privileged access of web applications that support SSO, the universal privileged access management solution implements cloud-based software services including Remote Browser Isolation (RBI) and ID brokers. In the access authentication process, by leveraging the data loss prevention (DLP) feature of RBI, the actual access credentials for accessing web applications are not disclosed to the user for mitigating security risks.

Abstract: Embodiments of the invention extend a network protocol that is limited to a local area network (LAN) and enable it to function across the Internet. A LAN protocol is limited to providing services or resources to users within the same LAN. Embodiments of the invention make it possible for those services and resources to be available to users beyond the LAN. Embodiments of the invention also concern establishing connectivity without discovery for local area network protocols.

Abstract: A system in which computer content is encoded at low latency and distributed to one or more client devices and in which user gestures on the client device are translated into a digital representation of the computer's native input format, thereby allowing the client device to control the computer. A method of capturing screen data on a desktop system, packaging the captured content, streaming the content to one or more client device, decoding the content on the client-side, displaying the decoded content on the client device, accepting user input, transmitting the user input to the desktop system, translating the input into a native format, and controlling the desktop system using the translated user input.

Abstract: A system and method are provided for a hybrid approach to delivering digital imagery in real-time that improves CPU utilization and latency. Such hybrid approach includes using standard compression/decompression utilities, such as but not limited to H.264 encoding/decoding, as well as a novel technique that creates and advantageously employs a block of data containing essentially the blocks of data that are difference from the previous input.

Abstract: An instant-on environment consists of components residing in a computer boot ROM and/or also on a mass storage device. Main components to the instant-on environment include a loader, EPG1, and EPG2. The loader is a module that is integrated into the computer boot ROM, based on an embedded OS, that functions to load other instant-on environment components. There are various methods of integrating the loader into boot firmware to optimize for different requirements. EPG1 is a first user screen that appears on the computer display within seconds after power-on, and from which the user can choose to launch one of the instant-on environment's applications or launch the primary OS. EPG2 is launched if the user chooses to launch an instant-on environment application. EPG2 is a Linux-based desktop environment that the user enters once he selects an application from EPG1.

Abstract: A method and apparatus for the virtualization of appliances provides an embedded operating system (OS) which is included in the system boot ROM of a personal computer. When the system boots, the OS is launched and looks for all available virtual appliances from, for example, the following places: local USB, flash card, e.g. SD, xD, CF, CDROM/DVD, or other storage media; local hard disk storage; and the Internet, e.g. an appliance server. The user selects an appliance to use from the OS, whereupon the appliance is loaded and launched. If the selected appliance is not on a local storage, then it is downloaded, e.g. over the Internet from an appliance server. The downloaded appliance can be cached in local storage media such that, the next time it is needed, it need not be downloaded from the appliance server. The user can also elect to boot an operating system from the hard disk, if an operating system and hard disk are installed, or to power-off the system.
