  • Patent number: 9692848
    Abstract: According to some embodiments, a proxy server populates a proxy server cache with first user content and sends the first user content to a secure client application executing on a user's mobile device. The proxy server determines a usage pattern based on a portion of the first user content consumed by the secure client application, prioritizes unrequested user content according to the usage pattern, and populates the proxy server cache with at least a portion of the unrequested user content based on priority.

  • Publication number: 20150201002
    Abstract: According to some embodiments, a delivery system comprises an interface and one or more processors. The interface is operable to receive a current preference from a recipient. The current preference indicates how the recipient prefers messages to be delivered. The processors determine whether the current preference differs from a previous preference that the delivery system associates with the recipient. The interface communicates the current preference to a plurality of senders if the current preference differs from the previous preference. The senders are configured to store the current preference in local memory and to apply the current preference from local memory in response to a future determination to send a message to the recipient.

  • Publication number: 20140026187
    Abstract: According to some embodiments, a proxy server comprises one or more processors operable to establish communication with a secure client application of a device. The client is configured with a partition that contains data received from the proxy server within the secure application. If the client passes authentication, the server communicates preview information to the client previewing files that the server received from a business server on behalf of the client. The client requests a selected file. The server renders the selected file into a first portion and a second portion based on the immediate display capabilities of the client. The server communicates the first portion, determines that a trigger point was reached, and then communicates the second portion in response to the trigger point being reached. The client is configured to delete the first portion and the second portion in response to a completion event.
