  • Patent number: 11411929
    Abstract: A universal and portable virtual resource event container that is provided by an identity-protection entity on behalf of a cloaked user. The resource event container is configured to log into or otherwise access networked sites and make calls to network entity APIs as directed by the user as they navigate the site and select objects for inclusion in the virtual resource event container instead of the resource event container provided by the network site. Subsequently, the resource event is completed between the network entity and the identity-protection entity. The network entity is unaware of the identity, or any other personal information associated with the user. In addition, objects in the resource event are delivered in an anonymous fashion, such that, the final delivery destination is unknown to the network entity and one or more hops along the delivery route. Thus, the present invention affords a user complete anonymity throughout the entire resource event.

  • Patent number: 11412064
    Abstract: A system for suggesting a list of actions to a user includes a server and an automaton connected to the server. The system makes it possible to calculate a list of actions that is suited to a user while taking into account the identity of the user, the profile of the user, and the first context data. The profile of the user includes: a unique identifier associated with the identity of the user, a history of the selections already made by the user on the automaton, and the second context data and the datum representing the return of the user that are related to each selection already made. Thus it is possible to suggest, to a user, a list of actions wherein the list of actions is established on the basis of analysis of the selections previously made in a similar context by a pre-identified user.

  • Patent number: 11388037
    Abstract: Embodiments improve application gateway architecture by pushing secure managed service boundaries. Managed services that were previously available directly in application gateway code are separated from application gateway code and exposed to service clients in a controlled, secured manner via a RESTful API layer dedicated to the management and interaction of deployed managed services. The separation can be realized in management agents. A management agent receives a service request from an application and makes an API call to the dedicated management API layer of the managing application gateway. The application may run within a managed container on a user device. Responsive to the API call, the application gateway sends a control or configuration message to the management agent over HTTP. The management agent controls or configures the managed service to function or behave as dictated by the application gateway.

  • Patent number: 11381555
    Abstract: Techniques for securing a single page application (SPA) are provided. An API server that receives an API call from an SPA to navigate a first user to a first state of the SPA navigates the first user to the first state of the SPA and generates a first token indicating that the first user has accessed the first state of the SPA. When the API server receives a request from the first user to navigate to a second state of the SPA (the request including the first token), the API server verifies that the first token indicating that the first user has accessed the first state of the SPA is valid for the second state of the SPA before navigating the first user to the second state of the SPA. Additionally, the API server expires the first token upon navigating the first user to the second state of the SPA.

  • Patent number: 11310294
    Abstract: The present disclosure provides a number of techniques for enhancing a user's experience when joining teleconference sessions with multiple devices. When a user attempts to join a teleconference session using the same user identity for multiple devices, a system differentiates the devices as a primary device and at least one companion device. The primary device has a first control set for controlling a teleconference session and the at least one companion device has a companion control set for sharing content. In some embodiments, the primary device also has one set of selected streams, e.g., a stage view, and the companion device has a subset of those streams or other streams based on an activity level. In addition, the present disclosure provides a number of techniques for enabling users to share content using the companion devices.
