  • System and method for processing data through a network firewall
    Patent number: 6981049
    Abstract: A system and method for processing data through a network firewall is presented. A more secure computer system initiates connections to one or more less secure computer systems. The more secure computer system and less secure computer system are separated by a firewall. The more secure computer system queries each less secure computer system periodically to see if there is event data or requests that the more secure computer system should respond to. The less secure computer systems store event data and requests from clients in a storage location until queried by the more secure computer system. When queried, the less secure computer system sends the event data or request information to the more secure computer system through the firewall. The more secure computer system either sends a response to the less secure computer system or sends the event data to an event console for a system administrator to analyze.
