  • Patent number: 10715547
    Abstract: A method for detecting a man-in-the-middle attack against communications between a client device and a specific remote end point over a network, the method using probe software installed on the client device, the method comprising the probe software sending a connection initiation request from the client device over the network, directed to the remote end point, to at least partially initiate a secure network connection between the remote end point and the client device, receiving at the client device encryption credentials sent to the client device in response to the connection initiation request, the probe software comparing the received encryption credentials with expected encryption credentials for the remote end point, and the probe software determining that a man-in-the-middle attack is present if the received encryption credentials do no match the expected encryption credentials.

  • Patent number: 8903863
    Abstract: Automatically and repeatedly crawling multiple multimedia websites to identify and collect information about the multimedia content that is available for delivery over the Internet to a client device for playback on a media player operating on the client device. In one embodiment, the method normalizes the collected information by converting the different formats of the collected information into a common format and converting the different nomenclatures of the collected information into a common nomenclature. The method updates an index with the normalized information, and sends a data feed to the client device to populate the user interface on the client device with the normalized information of the index. The user interface allows the user to navigate and select the multimedia content that is available for delivery over the Internet for playback on the media player.

  • Patent number: 8898315
    Abstract: The invention provides systems and for securely transmitting data between a roaming computer and a managed network service over a shared public network. A secure connection is created between the roaming computer and a server computer that hosts or acts as a secure gateway to the managed network service. The connection is set up and established by a client agent installed on the roaming computer and a connection component of the managed service on the server computer. The client agent and the connection component of the managed service operate, on an initial request from the roaming computer to the managed service to negotiate the secure connection using certificate-based client authentication. The client certificate preferably includes user-specific attributes that can be extracted by the connection component and made available to the managed service to apply processing rules specific to the user.

  • Publication number: 20140076518
    Abstract: A heat exchange system and method of use are provided. The system may include an inlet, an outlet, and a plurality of tubes in communication with the inlet and the outlet. The plurality of tubes may include a first tube located adjacent to a second tube. A first drain conduit may be in communication with the first tube at a location between the inlet and the outlet, and a second drain conduit may be in communication with the second tube at a location between the inlet and the outlet, such that the first and second drain conduits are operable to drain fluid from the plurality of tubes. The method may include supplying fluid to the inlet, flowing fluid through the plurality of tubes, returning fluid to the outlet, and removing a portion of the fluid from the plurality of tubes via a drainage manifold that is in fluid communication with the plurality of tubes at a location between the inlet and outlet.

  • Patent number: 8255465
    Abstract: Methods and systems for communicating information between computer networks in which the information to be communicated is required at one location (e.g. for processing) but only available at another location. The information may be absent deliberately (for privacy reasons) or may simply be unavailable as an artifact of the computer network(s) involved. The required information, such as the internal client IP address, is inserted into the outgoing network communication in a manner that does not to materially affect the normal transit or utility of the network communication (e.g. as custom headers). The information is preferably inserted in an encrypted form, so that it may pass over a public network and be invulnerable to unauthorised scrutiny.
