  • Patent number: 11636206
    Abstract: A code segment executing on a compute instance may be identified as suspicious based on runtime behavior or similar behavioral analysis or the like. In order to ensure the identification and use of the most up-to-date identification and remediation tools, the compute instance may defer various remediation steps for an interval, during which the compute instance may wait for data updates from a threat management system. After the interval has passed, the compute instance may use any updated data or tools in order to address the code segment that triggered the initial malware detection.
    Type: Grant
    Filed: March 26, 2021
    Date of Patent: April 25, 2023
    Assignee: Sophos Limited

  • Patent number: 6049832
    Abstract: A method and apparatus for accessing information on a host computer (104) from a client computer (112) that are connected by a network. The information accessed by the client computer (112) is represented as a plurality of fields in a presentation space data stream (208). The fields and corresponding attribute information in the presentation space data stream (208), as received from the host computer (104), are extracted and stored in field objects contained within a Display control (202). A set of events is provided by the Display control to an application program (204), the events providing information to allow the application program (204) to manage the interaction between an operator and the host computer (104). A set of properties and methods provide the application program (204) with the ability to traverse the field objects and thereby obtain the field information sent from the host computer.
