  • Patent number: 10417027
    Abstract: A snapshot of a remote virtual machine within a cluster of nodes is taken by using an image writer with a snapshot provider. A set of backup components is recorded by using a cluster interface. The remote virtual machine is reconstructed by using the snapshot and a framework with the set of backup components.

  • Patent number: 10331525
    Abstract: A remote snapshot is taken of a data associated with a node within a cluster of nodes by using a snapshot facility of an operating system. A set of backup data components is recorded. The data is remotely restored by interpreting the remote snapshot with the set of backup data components.

  • Patent number: 8719433
    Abstract: The invention provides scalable, secure, and easily administerable methods and systems for providing remote access to networked resources by combing aspects of physical access limitation measures with traditional computer access limitation measures. The methods and systems utilize an enrollment administration system for specifying enrollment rules, an enrollment system configured to communicate with the enrollment administration system to permit enrolling a first networked resource if permitted by specified enrollment rules, and a remote access system for granting a user remote access to the first networked resource if the user successfully enrolled the first networked resource.

  • Patent number: 7984192
    Abstract: The invention relates to systems and methods for assigning a unique network identifier to one or more programs invoked on a computer. The computer obtains a plurality of network identifiers and associates a first network identifier to a first program invoked on the computer and associates a second network identifier, different from the first network identifier, to a second program invoked on the computer. The program may be a user session hosted by the computer, an application or an application isolation environment. The computer through a network communication interface transmits the first network identifier with the network communication of the first program and transmits the second network identifier with network communication of the second program.

  • Patent number: 7756984
    Abstract: Systems and methods for providing a uniform network addressing scheme for a user accessing a network that is independent from the computer from which the user accesses the network. A virtual IP address is assigned to a user, a user session or a program run by user, where the IP address is different from the IP address of the computer of the user, and different from other users. A virtual host name is assigned to and associated with the virtual IP address of the user, user session or the program the user is running. As the user accesses the network from different computers, the user can be assigned the same virtual host name and in some cases the same virtual IP address. Furthermore, as the user accesses the network from multiple user sessions, the user can be assigned a virtual host name that uniquely identifies the user and the user session.
