  • Publication number: 20240113974
    Abstract: Mobile management method, system and client. Method includes receiving a DNS query for a host name from an application on client; retrieving reputation data associated with host name from a local cache on client; and determining a policy based on host name and the reputation data. Based on determined policy for the host name, blocking attempted network flows to a host corresponding to host name to produce blocked attempted network flows. Method also includes sending attempted network flow metadata related to the blocked attempted network flows to a collector on client; transmitting the attempted network flow metadata from the collector to a VPN server pool via a VPN tunnel; and producing an anomaly report from the transmitted attempted network flow metadata. The anomaly report includes at least one of anomalies, cohorts, trends, location boundaries, detected network security issues, detected compromised clients and/or optimized network usage.

  • Patent number: 11584104
    Abstract: Embodiments of the invention provide a storage container including a roof and two opposing side walls. At least one of the roof and the two side walls comprises a panel member including an inner skin, an outer skin, and a core between the inner skin and the outer skin. The panel member also including an inner skin trailing edge extending beyond the core and the outer skin and an outer skin leading edge, opposite the inner skin trailing edge, extending beyond the core and the inner skin. A viscoelastic tape is provided along the trailing edge and leading edge to maintain the position of the panel. Multiple panels can be joined with an adhesive material, with the viscoelastic tape maintaining the connection between the panels while the adhesive material sets and preventing the adhesive material from exiting past the trailing and leading edges.

  • Publication number: 20120117510
    Abstract: A system and method for automatically establishing a concurrent data connection between a communications device and a remote data server upon initiating a voice call. A data connection application can be configured in association with a communications device in order to concurrently connect the communications device and a remote data server on initiating a voice call. A directory server can be employed to match an outgoing contact number with respect to the communications device with a list of data-active contact numbers stored in the directory server. If a match is found, the location data can be transmitted to the communications device. The data connection application can be further communicated with the remote data server in order to visually transmit a wide range of potential business application associated with the remote data server to the communications device.

  • Patent number: 7236169
    Abstract: A geometric processing stage for a pipelined engine for processing video signals and generating processed video signal in space coordinates (S) adapted for display on a screen. The geometric processing stage includes: a model view module for generating projection coordinates of primitives of the video signals in a view space, said primitives including visible and non-visible primitives, a back face culling module arranged downstream of the model view module for at least partially eliminating the non visible primitives, a projection transform module for transforming the coordinates of the video signals from view space coordinates into normalized projection coordinates (P), and a perspective divide module for transforming the coordinates of the video signals from normalized projection (P) coordinates into screen space coordinates (S). The back face culling module is arranged downstream the projection transform module and operates on normalized projection (P) coordinates of said primitives.

  • Publication number: 20060156099
    Abstract: Aspects of a method and system of using a single EJTAG interface for multiple TAP controllers may comprise communicating information to a plurality of debugging interfaces, the method comprising simultaneously broadcasting a single debug message to a plurality of TAP controllers where the debug message is received via a single debug interface. The method may further comprise simultaneously broadcasting the single debug message to selected ones of a plurality of TAP controllers. An input enable register control signal may be generated that selects which, of a plurality of TAP controllers, is to receive the debug message. The single debug interface may be a JTAG interface which is capable of receiving and sending JTAG messages, or EJTAG messages.
