Publication number: 20240080374Abstract: Embodiments disclosed herein relate to systems and methods for providing a smart cache. In embodiments, a variable time to live (TTL) may be calculated and associated with data as it is stored in a cache. The variable TTL may be calculated based upon reputation and/or category information related to the source of the data. The reputation and/or category information may include TTL modifiers for adjusting the TTL for data from a particular data source that is stored in the cache. In further embodiments, a feedback method may be employed to update reputation and/or category information for a particular data source.Type: ApplicationFiled: November 9, 2023Publication date: March 7, 2024Inventors: Hal Case Lonas, JR., Thomas W.

Patent number: 11886555Abstract: Examples of the present disclosure describe systems and methods of determining online identity reputation. In aspects, an online identity of an entity may engage in online interactions. The content provided by the online identity may be accessed and analyzed to determine interaction characteristics and reputation metrics for the online identity. Based on the reputation metrics, the online identity and/or entity (and content therefrom) may be filtered from further online interactions. In some aspects, interaction data may be stored in a data store. An interaction mapping component having access to the data store may analyze the data store data to determine mappings between online identities, entities and interactions. In at least one aspect, an opt-in certificate system may also be provided. The opt-in system may provide an online identity or entity a certificate to securely validate identity.Type: GrantFiled: June 23, 2020Date of Patent: January 30, 2024Assignee: OPEN TEXT INC.Inventor: Hal Case Lonas, Jr.

Patent number: 7483982Abstract: A method and system for providing flexible access resources or services related to particular software applications are described. The system includes a database of Internet sites that have been categorized so that the system determines the category of information that a user is accessing on the Internet. The system is also programmed so users are only allowed to access sites a limited number of times. The system is further programmed to limit a user's access to the Internet based on the network's current bandwidth usage. Moreover, users can requested a postponed access, wherein the resource or service they are requesting is stored to a server, and available to the user at a later time. In addition, if a user chooses to access a resource or service that is within certain predefined categories, they are presented with the option of retrieving the resource or service, but notified that their access will be logged to a file.Type: GrantFiled: September 13, 2005Date of Patent: January 27, 2009Assignee: Websense, Inc.Inventors: Ronald Bjorn Hegli, Hal Case Lonas, Jr., Harold Kester
