Patent number: 10419398Abstract: A method and apparatus for resource locator identifier rewrite have been presented. A security device receives from a resource host over a non-secure hypertext transfer protocol (HTTP) session a response to a request received from a client over a secure HTTP session. The response includes a uniform resource locator (URL) that is supposed to be for a resource host, but the URL does not designate a secure resource access protocol and the resource host requires the secure resource access protocol. The URL is located in the response and modified to designate the secure resource access protocol. After modification, the response is transmitted via the secure resource access protocol session to the client.Type: GrantFiled: July 28, 2015Date of Patent: September 17, 2019Assignee: SONICWALL INC.Inventors: John E. Gmuender, Huy Minh Nguyen, Joseph H. Levy, Michael B. Massing, Zhong Chen, David M. Telehowski

Patent number: 7412539Abstract: A method for resource locator identifier rewrite in which a network security proxy insures that a resource locator identifier of a response indicates a resource access protocol that should govern a corresponding request. A security device receives from a resource host over a non-secure hypertext transfer protocol (HTTP) session a response to a request received from a client over a secure HTTP session. The response includes a uniform resource locator (URL) that is supposed to be for a resource host, but the URL does not designate a secure resource access protocol and the resource host requires the secure resource access protocol. The URL is located in the response and modified to designate the secure resource access protocol. After modification, the response is transmitted via the secure resource access protocol session to the client.Type: GrantFiled: December 30, 2002Date of Patent: August 12, 2008Assignee: SonicWALL, Inc.Inventors: John E.
