Patent number: 11595265Abstract: A system and method for creating priority-based regulated network interlinks between electronic devices is disclosed. The system receives a communication request from a first device to communicate with a second device and identifies whether the first device is comprised within a primary affinity group associated with the second device. If the first device is not found in the primary affinity group one or more secondary affinity groups are identified, each secondary affinity group associated with an electronic device different than the first and second devices. Based on scoring of each secondary affinity group, handling criteria for the communication object is determined and used to create a network interlink between the first device and the second device.Type: GrantFiled: July 25, 2022Date of Patent: February 28, 2023Assignee: Intelligent Communication Assistant, Inc.Inventors: Raymond J.

Patent number: 11595439Abstract: Certain embodiments of this disclosure describe techniques for detecting a spoofed network device and preventing the serving of content, such as advertisements, to the spoofed network device. In certain embodiments, a network security system is provided. The network security system can include hardware and/or software programmed to prevent the provision of content to a spoofed client device. The network security system can provide a mechanism for certifying to content providers, such as advertisers, whether or not a client is a legitimate mobile device or a spoofed device. Accordingly, content providers can prevent the delivery of content to fraudulent devices instead of relying on imprecise solutions that detect fraudulent activity after it has occurred.Type: GrantFiled: May 16, 2022Date of Patent: February 28, 2023Assignee: Spins Ventures LLCInventors: Andrew Michael Moeck, Hans J. Theisen

Patent number: 11570273Abstract: Systems and methods described herein can take advantage of the caching abilities of the browser and the idle time of the user to prefetch tag libraries of one or more tags for execution in a subsequent content page. For example, these systems and methods can provide the ability to prefetch and not execute a tag library on a content page before it is required so the tag library is cached in the browser. When the browser hits the page that uses the tag library, the tag library can be quickly retrieved from memory and executed.Type: GrantFiled: November 6, 2020Date of Patent: January 31, 2023Assignee: TEALIUM INC.Inventor: Michael Anderson

Patent number: 11438303Abstract: Methods and systems are described for assigning the proper internet protocol (IP) address to a client device following authentication of the client device on a network. In particular, at commencement of an authentication procedure of the client device, a role is associated with the client device that denies all DHCP renews/requests. By assigning a role to the client device 103 with a “deny DHCP renew/request” rule at the commencement of an authentication procedure, the systems and methods described herein ensure that a race condition does not allow the client device to renew an IP address in an old segment of the network. Accordingly, the client device may avoid a possibly improper IP address in a segment of the network system in which the client device is no longer associated with or operating on.Type: GrantFiled: January 6, 2021Date of Patent: September 6, 2022Assignee: Hewlett Packard Enterprise Development LPInventors: Brijesh Kumar Yadav, Rajalakshmi Manoharan
