  • Patent number: 11463463
    Abstract: The disclosed computer-implemented method for identifying security risks posed by application bundles may include (i) intercepting, using a VPN client of the computing device, network traffic of the computing device, wherein an operating system of the computing device restricts applications into a sandboxed environment, (ii) storing, on the computing device, a copy of at least a portion of the network traffic of the computing device within a sandbox associated with the VPN client, (iii) identifying, by analyzing the copy of the network traffic, an application bundle within the network traffic, (iv) determining, by analyzing the application bundle in the sandbox associated with the VPN client, that the application bundle poses a security risk, and (v) in response to determining that the application bundle poses a security risk, performing a security action to remedy the security risk. Various other methods, systems, and computer-readable media are also disclosed.

  • Patent number: 9244668
    Abstract: A computer-implemented method for synchronizing mobile computing platforms may include (1) identifying a set of applications installed on a mobile computing platform, (2) detecting a request from an additional mobile computing platform to synchronize the additional mobile computing platform and the mobile computing platform with respect to the set of applications, and then (3) synchronizing the additional mobile computing platform and the mobile computing platform with respect to the set of applications by (a) querying an application-matching engine to determine an equivalent set of applications that corresponds to the set of applications on the additional mobile computing platform and then (b) directing the additional mobile computing platform to download the equivalent set of applications. Various other methods, systems, and computer-readable media are also disclosed.
