  • Customizing user interfaces for multiple different clients
    Patent number: 9998452
    Abstract: Techniques described herein provide customized user interfaces to users of clients based on the context of the client. For instance, the techniques may receive parameters that relate to specific client contexts, may transmit the parameters to a content scheduler, and may receive a schedule for serving context-specific user interface to the users. In response to receiving the content schedule, the techniques serve the context-specific content in scheduled locations of the customized user interface to the user.

  • Dynamic account throttling
    Patent number: 8904506
    Abstract: A user account may be throttled to restrict access once aberrant behavior is detected. Upon receiving a request to access the user account, a determination of whether the user account is in a throttled state may be made. In some aspects, when the user account is not in a throttled state, user account access may be determined based at least in part on an access credential. Further, in some aspects, when the user account is in a throttled state, user account access may be determined based at least in part on an access credential and other client information associated with the user account.
