  • Automatic optimization and hardening of application images
    Patent number: 11360871
    Abstract: Computer receives, from within system application comprising application(s) that communicate with operating system(s) (OS), selection of target application. Computer creates stub application for target application that mimics entry and exit points of target application. Computer isolates target application externally to system application. Computer establishes network connection(s) connecting isolated target application and stub application to process communication between isolated target application and system application. Computer generates OS tracing system that logs file and directory accesses of isolated target application. Computer monitors runtime behavior of isolated target application, using logs of OS tracing system, to identify files used by target application. Computer determines set of files not used by target application.
    Type: Grant

  • Methods and apparatus for secure document printing
    Patent number: 7849316
    Abstract: Methods and apparatus are provided for securely printing a print job on a networked printer. An application program running on a networked computer instructs the printer to generate and exchange cryptographic keys. The application program then encrypts the print job using the keys, and then communicates the encrypted print job to the printer. The printer decrypts the received print job and prints the document.
