Ledford J. Meadows, III has filed for patents to protect the following inventions. This listing includes patent applications that are pending as well as patents that have already been granted by the United States Patent and Trademark Office (USPTO).

  • Patent number: 11665174
    Abstract: A method of providing a secure development operations system that can accommodate multiple projects, multiple tenants, and multiple security classifications includes creating a first sub-program with the first sub-program being part of a first project and designating the first sub-program with a first security classification label. The method also includes transferring the first sub-program to a first repository of the development operations system with the first repository being configured to contain sub-programs associated with the first project and transferring a copy of the first sub-program to a second repository of the development operations system. The second repository is configured to contain sub-programs from multiple projects and sub-programs that have different security classification labels.

  • Patent number: 9424064
    Abstract: A system and method of deploying a network hopping adaptor is disclosed. In some embodiments, a network hopping adaptor may be configured to manipulate network traffic so as to change at least one network characteristic of the network traffic, and at least one network interface of a machine selected from a group of machines may be configured to send the network traffic to the network hopping adaptor. The network hopping adaptor may manipulate such characteristics as an IP address, a port number, an encryption algorithm or a compression algorithm. The group of machines may be deployed as virtual machines being executed by a virtualization server, and the network hopping adaptor may be implemented on another virtual machine being executed by the virtualization server. Alternatively, or in addition, the group of machines or the network hopping adaptor may be implemented as physical machines.

  • Publication number: 20150236752
    Abstract: Embodiments for providing a next-time-interval routing parameter to a destination node are generally described herein. In some embodiments, a hopped routing parameter is calculated at a sending node using a static routing parameter of a destination node. The hopped routing parameter and source timing are encoded. The encoded hopped routing parameter and source timing are provided in the address fields of packets.
