Abstract: Methods and apparatus enforce a secure internet connection from a mobiles endpoint computing device. A security policy for the endpoint is defined based on its location. From that location, an internet connection is established and detected. This event triggers the launching of a full VPN tunnel connection including an NDIS firewall forcing packet traffic through a port of the endpoint computing device assigned by the security policy and/or MAC/IP addresses of a VPN concentrator. Thereafter, the packet traffic is monitored for compliance with the security policy. This includes determining whether packet traffic over the assigned port is observed within a given time or packet traffic is attempted over other ports. Monitoring occurs whether or not the protocol of the VPN tunnel connection is known. Other features contemplate quarantining for improper operation of the VPN tunnel, undertaking remediation, and computer program products, to name a few.

Abstract: A data file mirroring application that monitors data files stored in a source directory for archiving on high capacity media. The mirroring application archives the data files to the high capacity removable media in accordance with user configured settings, and without user intervention. The data files may be archived based on a time period elapsing or a data file being revised and saved. The application may identify the high capacity media in accordance with a unique identifier of the high capacity media.
