  • Patent number: 11457040
    Abstract: A reverse TCP/IP stack infrastructure is disclosed. In an example use, an application executing on a client device as an operating system extension that uses a virtual private network stack of the operating system intercepts a first IP packet generated by a client program. The application determines that the first IP packet comprises a Transmission Control Protocol synchronize message and opens a socket to a destination Internet Protocol address and destination port. A synchronize acknowledgement is received. A packet to transmit to the client program is synthesized that includes a synchronize acknowledgment.

  • Patent number: 10958662
    Abstract: An access proxy system is disclosed. A proxy server receives, from a client device, a request to access a protected resource. The protected resource represents a mapping between a user-facing domain and an internal domain that is only accessible from behind a set of one or more proxies that includes the proxy server. In response to receiving a grant of permission by an access policy engine, the proxy server proxies access to the protected resource using a mutual-TLS connection with the client device.

  • Patent number: 10574676
    Abstract: A mobile device application executing on a mobile device as an operating system extension that uses a virtual private network (VPN) stack of the operating system intercepts a first Internet protocol (IP) packet for delivery to a remote computer system. The application determines that the intercepted first IP packet is associated with sensitive information. In response creates a VPN tunnel between the remote computer system to securely send data from the mobile device to the remote computer system.

  • Patent number: 10404726
    Abstract: Techniques for inspecting network traffic are disclosed. An application executing as an operating system extension that uses a virtual private network (VPN) stack of the operating system intercepts an Internet protocol (IP) packet for delivery to a remote computer system. A determination is made, by the application, that the intercepted IP packet indicates a security threat. The intercepted IP packet is prevented from being delivered to the remote computer system based on the determination.

  • Patent number: 10367876
    Abstract: Systems and methods monitor a system including a remote desktop, a trusted mobile instance, and a delivery handler. The delivery handler can determine if the system is overloaded and to take the appropriate measures to maintain a negotiated minimal QoS and adapt as necessary when the conditions vary. Additionally, the systems and method can address security issues by separating privileges that are typically bundled together in conventional systems, and by applying isolation mechanisms to exposed areas of the system.

  • Publication number: 20190109864
    Abstract: Methods, apparatuses, and embodiments related to a technique for inspecting network traffic. In an example, a user downloads and installs a security application at his computer as an operating system extension, resulting in the security application being initialized by the operating system during initialization of the operating system, such as during power on or reset. An application utilized by the user sends an Internet Protocol (IP) packet for delivery to a remote computer system. The IP packet is intercepted by the security application via a network extension service of the operating system. If a determination is made that the IP packet indicates a security threat, the security application prevents the IP packet from being transmitted to a network for delivery to the remote computer system and displays a message indicating the security threat.

  • Publication number: 20180004546
    Abstract: A keyboard for a remote device on a client device is provided. In a method of the present invention, an indication is received that a keyboard is needed for the remote device by a client device communicably coupled to the remote device. In response to receiving the indication, the client device opens a soft keyboard. Text received on the soft keyboard is transmitted text received via the soft keyboard on the client device to the remote device. Thus, a user can utilize a preferred keyboard on their own device while accessing applications on a remote device.
