  • Publication number: 20240011012
    Abstract: The present disclosure describes improved methods for use in purifying biological products made by host cells. In some embodiments, the improved methods comprise one or more steps of lysing host cells, such as with a detergent, to release the biological product, precipitating host cell DNA, such as with domiphen bromide, and then inhibiting precipitation of residual host cell DNA in a supernatant containing the biological product by adding a salt to a sufficient final concentration. In some embodiments, the biological product is a vaccine, or a viral vector for gene therapy, such as an AAV vector or a lentiviral vector.

  • Patent number: 11425564
    Abstract: A system for integrating wireless service providers' core networks with Wi-Fi radios using a Wireless Services Gateway (WSG). The WSG can allow wireless device users to seamlessly connect to a network such as the internet using both cellular phone antennae as well as Wi-Fi radio antennae while still utilizing their preferred wireless service provider's core network system of billing, authenticating and policy decision making. This system can allow for data transmission of wireless devices through Wi-Fi instead of through cellular antennae, thus increasing bandwidth and data transmission rates.

  • Patent number: 10992641
    Abstract: Methods and systems for an IPv4-IPv6 proxy mode for DNS servers are provided. According to one embodiment, a DNS query is received by a network device from a dual-stack client. A determination is made the network device whether a first record type containing an Internet Protocol (IP) address for a server associated with the query exists within a DNS database of the network device. If the first record type exists for the server, then communication is enabled between the client and the server based on the first record type; otherwise it is automatically determined whether a second record type usable by the client exists for the server. Responsive to a determination that the second record type exists, data associated with the second record type is shared with the client by the network device to enable communication between the client and the server.

  • Patent number: 10181655
    Abstract: A horizontally polarized antenna array allows for the efficient distribution of RF energy into a communications environment through selectable antenna elements and redirectors that create a particular radiation pattern such as a substantially omnidirectional radiation pattern. In conjunction with a vertically polarized array, a particular high-gain wireless environment may be created such that one environment does not interfere with other nearby wireless environments and avoids interference created by those other environments. Lower gain patterns may also be created by using particular configurations of a horizontal and/or vertical antenna array. In a preferred embodiment, the antenna systems disclosed herein are utilized in a multiple-input, multiple-output (MIMO) wireless environment.

  • Patent number: 10171492
    Abstract: Systems and methods for improving the performance of DDoS mitigation by monitoring the health of a protected network resource are provided. According to one embodiment, health of a network device protected by DoS mitigation device can be evaluated and packet/traffic received on the DoS mitigation device can be selectively/conditionally forwarded to the protected network device or can be dropped based on the health of the protected network device. According to one embodiment, at-least a part of the traffic is blocked when the health of the protected network device is below a predetermined health threshold. In an exemplary implementation, a measure of volume of traffic originated by different computing devices and handled by the protected network device can be computed, and packet filtering or conditional forwarding can be enabled when the computed measure of volume of traffic exceeds a predetermined traffic volume threshold.

  • Patent number: 10075468
    Abstract: Systems and methods for an improved DDoS mitigation approach are provided. According to one embodiment, a current threshold for a network connection characteristic is established within a Denial-of-Service (DoS) mitigation device logically interposed between a protected resource of a private network and multiple client devices residing external to the private network. A number of connections between the client devices and the protected network resource are tracked. During a period of time in which the number of connections exceeds a connection count threshold: (i) for each of the connections, a measured value for the network connection characteristic is compared to the current threshold; (ii) responsive to a determination that the measured value exceeds the current threshold, the connection is dropped; and (iii) the current threshold is periodically reduced, such that only those connections complying with the current threshold are maintained.

  • Patent number: 10009419
    Abstract: Methods and systems for efficient data transactions between applications running on devices associated with the same host. According to one embodiment, a host system includes an HTTP proxy and an SSL/TLS proxy operatively coupled with each other. The SSL/TLS proxy may be configured to perform SSL negotiation with a client and the HTTP proxy may be configured to communicate with a web server in clear text. Data can be transferred directly between the proxies through a pair of connected sockets using a handle of the other proxy's socket. The handle includes a pointer to an address within a memory of a first device upon which the other proxy is running. In this manner, data stored at the address may be processed by a proxy running on a second device without copying the data to the second device and without the overhead associated with the TCP/IP protocol stack.
