Patent number: 11190489Abstract: A method and system include a SDP controller in a SDP receiving a request from a first device for communicating with a second device. The second device is in the SDP. A firewall includes a connection table configured to map an identity of the first device and second device, and a filter table is configured to open and close ports. The SDP controller authenticates the first device, and provides the identity of the first device to the second device. The second device transmits a first packet to the first device. The firewall maps in the connection table, the identity of the first device in association with the second device. The first device transmits a second packet to the second device. The firewall determines that the identity of the first device is in the connection table for communicating with the second device and forwards the second packet to the second device.Type: GrantFiled: June 3, 2020Date of Patent: November 30, 2021Assignee: OPSWAT, Inc.Inventors: Russell Paul Miller, Travis Lowell Dimmig, Jeffrey Thomas Price, James David Robinson

Publication number: 20210352150Abstract: Systems and methods for maintaining session identifiers across multiple webpages for content selection are described herein. A server can generate a session identifier corresponding to the client device for use in selecting content to be served across the information resources of a content publisher. The server can then receive, from the client device, a request for instructions to insert into a header of an information resource for selecting a content provider. The server can determine that the request includes the session identifier that matches the one generated for a previous request. The server can obtain a parameter value for each content provider with the session identifier. The server can select a content provider using the parameter values. The server can provide a script to the client device for the header. The script can be configured to cause the client device to obtain a content item from the selected content provider to insert into the information resource.Type: ApplicationFiled: July 22, 2021Publication date: November 11, 2021Applicant: Google LLCInventors: Justin Lewis, Thomas Price

Patent number: 11074609Abstract: Systems and methods are described for improving mediated sponsored content networks using a stack trace. One implementation relates to a method running on a sponsored content network and includes receiving a request for a sponsored content item from a user device executing code from a mediation platform. An item is sent to fulfill the request. If the identity of the mediation platform is not known, the sent item includes stack trace implementation code. An identifier is received that is associated with the mediation platform consequent to the user device executing the stack trace implementation code and the identity of the mediation platform is determined using the identifier. A performance metric associated with the determined identity of the mediation platform is identified. The method may further receive a second request for a sponsored content item from the user device and use the performance metric to select the second item.Type: GrantFiled: March 3, 2016Date of Patent: July 27, 2021Assignee: Google LLCInventors: Tuna Toksoz, Thomas Price

Patent number: 11068290Abstract: A client system presents, within an execution environment of an application, a third-party media stream distinct from the application, received from a remote host server via a network. The client system detects interaction events during presentation of the third-party media stream, and transmits descriptions of the detected interaction events to the remote host server. The application may be pre-cued prior to presentation, e.g., to minimize start-up time. In some implementations, a side-band message channel is established to facilitate communication between the client system and the remote host server.Type: GrantFiled: March 13, 2020Date of Patent: July 20, 2021Assignee: Google LLCInventors: Tuna Toksoz, Thomas Price
