  • Patent number: 11955116
    Abstract: Content is organized for brands by selecting a plurality of brand templates. After each selection, a set of properties is generated by applying a portion of settings of the respective brand template, with the remaining settings being overridden with settings for a channel communicating one of a plurality of presentations to a node of a network involved in the communication. The plurality of presentations may include different renditions of the same content. The properties may include sections configured for different focus areas and/or types of content associated with at tags to enable brand-level-targeting. Filters may be identified in the properties. Based on each of the identifications, a property from among the generated sets of properties may be selected based on comparisons with the associated tags.

  • Patent number: 10432658
    Abstract: Computer-implemented systems, methods, and computer-readable media are provided for causing an action to be performed in response to a network communication, such as a malicious network communication. In accordance with some embodiments, a first network communication sent from a client device is received, and a protocol used in the first network communication is determined. Once the protocol is determined, the protocol may be implemented to enable a second network communication with the client device. An action to be performed based at least in part on the protocol may be identified, and an instruction may be sent to the client device in the second network communication.

  • Publication number: 20050166303
    Abstract: A head and neck protection system includes a head protector, a shoulder protector, and a neck guard for protecting a person from injury. The neck guard detachably connects between the head protector and the shoulder protector and includes a collar. The collar has a first edge and a second edge spaced apart from the first edge. The first and second edges include fastening means for detachably coupling the collar between the head protector and the shoulder protector. In one embodiment, the collar has a perimeter that flares outwardly as the collar extends from the head protector to the shoulder protector. The collar is formed of an anti-ballistic material to protect the person from injury from bullets, fragments and other projectiles. The collar interconnects the head protector with the shoulder protector to form a restraint that limits displacement of the head protector relative to the shoulder protector.
