Patent number: 10291658Abstract: Techniques to apply and share remote policies on personal devices are described. In an embodiment, a technique includes contacting an enterprise server from an enterprise application operating on a personal device. The enterprise application may receive policies from the enterprise server. The policies may be applied to the enterprise application. When a second enterprise application on the personal device is launched, the policies may also be applied to the second enterprise application. When a policy is changed on the enterprise server, notification is pushed to the personal device and all related enterprise applications on the personal device may be updated to enforce the policy change. Other embodiments are described and claimed.Type: GrantFiled: November 9, 2011Date of Patent: May 14, 2019Assignee: Microsoft Technology Licensing, LLCInventors: Jonathan Kent, Michael Hamler, Shivakumar Seetharaman, Gregory Bolles

Patent number: 8499052Abstract: In embodiments, mobile devices request and utilize recipient caches. Recipient caches store information regarding previous recipients of communications. The information on recipients includes when the recipient was last contacted and the frequency with which a recipient is contacted. In embodiments, a mobile device requests a recipient cache from a server. When a user types a string of text, the mobile device then uses the recipient cache as well as the contacts and emails on the mobile device and resolves a recipient list. In other embodiments, a recipient cache on a server is updated when a mobile device sends a message with new recipient information. In another embodiment, a server resolves conflicting messages by using recipient information.Type: GrantFiled: February 20, 2012Date of Patent: July 30, 2013Assignee: Microsoft CorporationInventors: Patrick Tousignant, Selvaraj Nalliah, Shivakumar Seetharaman, Salman Zafar, John Allen Atwood, Gregory Bolles, Juan Vicente Esteve Balducci, Kevin Resnick

Publication number: 20070005965Abstract: Example embodiments provide for authenticating a device to multiple servers without using delegation or having to have a password stored on the device. Multiple certificates that are typically non-delegable are used to authenticate the device to each server. One certificate is used to authenticate the client with the front-end server and a second certificate is used to authenticate the client against a back-end server. Rather than having both certificates reside with the device, however, the second certificate is originally stored by the client in the back-end. It is then retrieved “on-the-fly” by the front-end upon authentication of the client and used to authenticate itself as the client in order to act on behalf of the client when retrieving data from the back-end server.Type: ApplicationFiled: June 30, 2005Publication date: January 4, 2007Applicant: Microsoft CorporationInventors: Selvaraj Nalliah, Andrew Moss, David Limont, Gregory Bolles, John Atwood, Massimiliano Ciccotosto

Publication number: 20060271708Abstract: A method and system for managing one or more web requests provided to a web application from a client computer. An application is responsive to a web request to generate verification data. The application sends a reply to the client to calculate a stamp as a function of the generated verification data. The application is responsive to an additional request from the client including the calculated stamp to determine if it corresponds to the generated verification data. If the calculated stamp corresponds to the generated verification data, the additional web request is submitted to the web application for processing. A Web server subject to a DOS attack will be able to distinguish between genuine users(who generate stamps) and malicious users(who will not generate stamps) and over a period of time be able to restore service to the former and deny to the latter.Type: ApplicationFiled: May 25, 2005Publication date: November 30, 2006Applicant: Microsoft CorporationInventors: Gregory Bolles, Radhesh Mohandas, Russell Simpson
