  • Patent number: 8725889
    Abstract: The present invention provides an electronic message management system (EMS) that includes a real-time feedback loop where data is collected from the electronic messages on incoming connection attempts, outgoing delivery attempts, and message content analysis, and written to a centralized data matrix. A separate process accesses the data matrix and analyzes trends in that data. The detected data patterns, trends or behavior is based on configuration parameters for the recipient. Based on these determinations, the process is able to instruct components in the EMS to accept, redirect, refuse, modify, defer, or otherwise dispose of the connection request, the delivery attempt, or the message. Associated methods for managing the transmission of electronic messages are also disclosed.

  • Publication number: 20110138041
    Abstract: Disclosed are systems and methods for detecting unwanted electronic message transmissions on a communications network. These include establishing a database for storing metadata associated with message traffic according to at least the source addresses of the senders of electronic message transmissions. The disclosed principles also include monitoring electronic message transmissions at the certain location on the electronic communications network. Also, included is populating the database with metadata derived from analysis of the monitored electronic messages, where the metadata includes metadata derived by analyzing the contents of the monitored electronic messages.

  • Patent number: 7584264
    Abstract: Data storage and retrieval systems and related methods are disclosed herein. In one aspect, a system includes data processing servers configured to receive incoming data and transmit the data for storage. The system also includes data storage servers each coupled to one or more data storage units and configured to receive transmitted data for writing to the one or more data storage units, and to read data from the one or more data storage units. Furthermore, the systems may include data retrieval servers coupled to one or more of the data storage servers and configured to retrieve data from the one or more data storage units. The system further includes process modules each associated with one of the data storage servers, where at least two of the process modules are configured to write a portion of the data to corresponding data storage units.
