Patent number: 8843565Abstract: Electronic messaging communications, including Instant Messaging messages, are organized into particular categories, as selected by the users providing the messages. This enables messages of a particular category to be displayed at a recipient of the messages, while other messages are masked from view. It also facilitates the capturing of certain related messages to the exclusion of others.Type: GrantFiled: June 6, 2008Date of Patent: September 23, 2014Assignee: International Business Machines CorporationInventors: Michael D. Essenmacher, Thomas E. Murphy, Jr., Frank V. Paxhia, William A. Ruby

Patent number: 7107614Abstract: IP security is provided in a virtual private network using network address translation (NAT) by performing one or a combination of the four types of VPN NAT, including VPN NAT type ‘a source-outbound’ IP NAT, VPN NAT type ‘b destination-outbound, VPN NAT type ‘c inbound-source’ IP NAT, and VPN NAT type ‘d inbound-destination’ IP NAT. This involves dynamically generating NAT rules and associating them with the manual or dynamically generated (IKE) Security Associations, before beginning IP security that uses the Security Associations. Then, as IP Sec is performed on outbound and inbound datagrams, the NAT function is also performed.Type: GrantFiled: May 23, 2000Date of Patent: September 12, 2006Assignee: International Business Machines CorporationInventors: Edward B. Boden, Mark J. Melville, Tod A. Monroe, Frank V. Paxhia

Patent number: 6636898Abstract: A single point of control is provided for all IPSec tunnels and also for VPN connections at a node within a virtual private network. The control of the connections include the ability to start and stop manual and dynamic VPN connections, to delete connections that might have had errors associated with them, to query VPN connection status information on these connections, to manage such things as connection lifetimes, and the refresh of keying material, that is the re-negotiation of dynamic Security Associations (SAs), and to create VPN connections when this system is acting in a responder role, that is the opposite endpoint of an initiated connection.Type: GrantFiled: January 29, 1999Date of Patent: October 21, 2003Assignee: International Business Machines CorporationInventors: David S. Ludovici, Mark J. Melville, Richard A. Mullock, Frank V. Paxhia

Patent number: 6567849Abstract: System and method for serving HTML pages to web browsers for the purpose of administration and configuration. A plurality of instances of WWW servers is provided, with one such instance including a configuration file which is restricted in usage and not alterable by way of any HTML configuration or administration forms. This plurality of instances of internet connection servers is managed by way of a web browser which displays and interacts with a plurality of HTML forms and corresponding common gateway interface binary programs which are provided selectively for creating and deleting instances of servers, associating a configuration file with a server instance, changing server instance start up parameters, and starting, ending, and restarting server instances.Type: GrantFiled: August 17, 1998Date of Patent: May 20, 2003Assignee: International Business Machines CorporationInventors: David S. Ludovici, Frank V. Paxhia

Patent number: 6330562Abstract: A data model for abstracting customer-defined VPN security policy information. By employing this model, a VPN node (computer system existing in a Virtual Private Network) can gather policy configuration information for itself through a GUY, or some distributed policy source, store this information in a system-defined database, and use this information to dynamically negotiate, create, delete, and maintain secure connections at the IP level with other VPN nodes.Type: GrantFiled: January 29, 1999Date of Patent: December 11, 2001Assignee: International Business Machines CorporationInventors: Edward B.

Patent number: 4500928Abstract: Apparatus for recording in memory the data of a displayed video frame by storing as data bytes all of the binary data bits from the video data signal appearing as scan lines generated in succession within groups in a frame. The capture of video data occurs within a single regeneration of the raster image. Also recorded in memory for each scan line is a status byte to designate whether the next predetermined number of scan lines are to be omitted to provide spacing between rows of displayed characters.Type: GrantFiled: November 26, 1982Date of Patent: February 19, 1985Assignee: International Business Machines CorporationInventors: Francis J. Bucek, Frank V. Paxhia
