Patent number: 10489561Abstract: A method and system for generating a protected version of the digital content is disclosed. The method includes obfuscating the digital content to yield a functionally equivalent obfuscated digital content, encrypting the obfuscated digital content using at least one device or non-device parameter, generating a decryption logic to be used for generating a decryption key based upon the at least one device or non-device parameter, and concatenating the encrypted digital content and the decryption logic to generate the protected version of the digital content.Type: GrantFiled: June 12, 2018Date of Patent: November 26, 2019Assignee: JSCRAMBLER S.A.Inventors: Antonio Pedro Freitas Fortuna Dos Santos, Rui Miguel Silvares Ribeiro, Filipe Manuel Gomes Silva

Patent number: 10102384Abstract: The present disclosure provides a method and system for generating digital content for a computing device which will function on the computing device only after successful validation. The system installs one or more checks in the digital content that restrict the execution of the digital content to a specific device for which the digital content is generated. The checks pertain to at least one or more parameters of a device including without limitation, a device ID, a device model, or any device specific feature. In addition, the system generates a protected version of the digital content with the one or more installed checks to be transmitted to a client.Type: GrantFiled: May 30, 2014Date of Patent: October 16, 2018Assignee: JSCRAMBLER S.A.Inventors: Antonio Pedro Freitas Fortuna dos Santos, Rui Miguel Silvares Ribeiro, Filipe Manuel Gomes Silva

Patent number: 9979726Abstract: A system for detection and mitigation of client-side initiated security attack(s) to a web application is disclosed. A server component (SC) of the system is configured to intercept at least partially a web application code and/or data exchanged between a web server and one or more web browsers running on client devices respectively. The SC installs a script in the web application code intercepted from a web server before forwarding a transformed web application code to the a web browser. The CS when executed in a web browser of a client, causes the web browser to execute a loop which sweeps the document object model (DOM) structure of the webpage. Further, the CS sends a report containing the DOM structure and/or details on data to the SC. Using the received reports, SC concludes if tampering occurred at the client-side.Type: GrantFiled: July 4, 2014Date of Patent: May 22, 2018Assignee: JSCRAMBLER S.A.Inventors: Antonio Pedro Freitas FOrtuna dos Santos, Rui Miguel Silvares Ribeiro, Filipe Manuel Gomes Silva

Patent number: 9485531Abstract: A networked personal video recording (“PVR”) system couples a plurality of clients to one or more PVR media servers over a network. One or more PVR media servers include television tuners to tune television signals. A storage medium buffers the television signals to implement PVR functionality. For example, the PVR media server records television programs for clients. Clients are assigned to television tuners, and the clients display television programs received at the assigned tuner. The network transfers the buffered television signals to the clients.Type: GrantFiled: April 7, 2014Date of Patent: November 1, 2016Assignee: Rovi Solutions CorporationInventors: Daniel Putterman, Brad Dietrich, Jeremy Toeman, Pedro Freitas, Ludovic Legrand, Shawn McCaffrey, James Grimm, Lijia Jin, Paul Novaes

METHODS AND APPARATUS FOR RENDERING USER INTERFACES AND DISPLAY INFORMATION ON REMOTE CLIENT DEVICES
Publication number: 20140201636Abstract: A user interface is implemented on a client device remote from a host device. The host device operates an application program that implements a user interface, such as an electronic programming guide or a guide for a personal video recorder, that permits a user to control at least one target device. The host device transfers to the client device an identification of at least one scene. In general, a scene defines an abstract layout for at least one screen display of the user interface. The client device generates at least one screen display for the scene based on its interpretation of the scene. The client device then displays the screen as an implementation of the user interface. Thereafter, a user initiates, using the client device, an operation to control the target device. In response, the target device performs the operation. The host device may also display information at a client device For example, the host device may transmit information about a media currently playing at the client device.Type: ApplicationFiled: October 11, 2013Publication date: July 17, 2014Applicant: ROVI SOLUTIONS CORPORATIONInventors: Pedro Freitas, Daniel Putterman, Jeremy Toeman, Brad Dietrich -
