  • Patent number: 11182276
    Abstract: Development-time awareness of production environment dependency injection configuration in a software development or test environment. In a software development or test environment, metadata is retrieved relating to configuration data of injection sources and target injection sites in applications of a configured target production server or a representation of a configured target production server. A configuration data structure is formed that cross-references target injection sites and injectable sources determined from the configuration data, the configuration data structure being associated with the production server and available to the software development or test environment. The configuration data structure is referenced to carry out dependency injection related features.

  • Patent number: 10452231
    Abstract: One or more aspects relate to a screen reader. Markup code for a visual interface containing at least one visual control is located. A screen reader menu for the visual interface is created. A visual control name and screen location, both corresponding to the at least one visual control, are extracted from the markup code. A menu item is generated in the screen reader menu corresponding to the at least one visual control. The menu item is set to simulate an action at the screen location corresponding to the at least one visual control on selection of the menu item whereby on user selection of the menu item the action is simulated at the screen location corresponding to the at least one visual control.

  • Patent number: 10394421
    Abstract: One or more aspects relate to providing a user interface menu in a screen reader reading an application. A graphical user interface (GUI) is screen scraped to determine GUI components and a user option menu is created including user options corresponding to the determined GUI components. A corresponding GUI component is activated when a user option is selected.

  • Patent number: 10136098
    Abstract: Methods and systems are provided for integrity verification of an audio-visual data stream. The method includes inserting a watermark into a frame of the visual data stream or into an audio window of a corresponding audio data stream, where the watermark includes: a hash code of the previous frame of the visual data stream and a hash code of the audio window of the audio data stream, and where the audio window corresponds in time to the previous frame of the visual data stream.

  • Patent number: 10044828
    Abstract: A method, system and program for uploading a resource from remote storage to a remote service. The method comprises the steps of connecting to the remote service, initiating an upload of the resource to the remote service, selecting the remote storage as a source of the resource, acquiring the resource from the remote storage, and uploading the resource to the remote service. In one embodiment, at least part of the method is executed by a proxy server and the step of acquiring the resource from the remote storage comprises downloading the resource to the proxy server. In another embodiment, the remote service communicates directly with the remote storage. In this further embodiment, a client device acquires authentication data for the resource from the remote storage and the step of acquiring the resource from the remote storage includes providing the authentication data to the remote storage.

  • Patent number: 8931103
    Abstract: Embodiments of the invention relate to generating security permissions for applications. A static analysis on an application is carried out to determine security exceptions and to determine the application components responsible for the security exceptions. The determined security exceptions are analyzed to calculate permissions required for each component. A security policy file that includes a hierarchy of the required permissions suitable for the type of application is formatted and applied to the application to provide a security enabled application.
