| 20110320552 | ASYNCHRONOUS REAL-TIME RETRIEVAL OF DATA - A data retrieval system includes a gateway server and an access client. The gateway server is communicatively connected to the access client through a network. The gateway server provides a presentation service (PS) and a real-time service (RTS), which cooperate with the access client to retrieve data from a data store and then provide the retrieved data to a user's remote communication device. More particularly, when a user wishes to retrieve data from the data store or to send data to the data store, the user establishes a communication connection between his or her remote communication device and the gateway server, and then requests the desired data from the gateway server. In response, the gateway server sends a command to the access client, instructing it to retrieve the requested data. The access client retrieves the requested data from the data store, and returns the retrieved data to the gateway server. The gateway server then relays the requested information back to the user's remote communication device. | 12-29-2011 |
| 20110296186 | SYSTEM AND METHOD FOR PROVIDING SECURED ACCESS TO SERVICES - A system and method for providing authenticated access to an initiating terminal in relation to the services provided by a terminating terminal via a communications network are disclosed. In one aspect, a global server comprises a communications module, which receives and processes a key exchange initiation message from the initiating terminal so as to establish an encrypted communications channel with the terminating terminal. The communications module, responsive to a received key exchange initiation message, performs an encrypted communication establishment process in respect of the received key exchange initiation message. The encrypted communication establishment process comprises authenticating the initiating terminal, and in the event that the initiating terminal is successfully authenticated, transmitting keying data corresponding to the received key exchange initiation message to the terminating terminal. The keying data is identified on the basis of data associated with the initiating terminal. | 12-01-2011 |
| 20110153779 | SYSTEM AND METHOD FOR GLOBALLY AND SECURELY ACCESSING UNIFIED INFORMATION IN A COMPUTER NETWORK - A smartphone that includes a communications interface to communicate via one or more Internet communications channels is provided.

| 20100144323 | SYSTEM, APPARATUS AND ASSOCIATED METHODOLOGY FOR ENRICHING CONTACT OF A REMOTE CLIENT - A contact enrichment system is provided to determine whether contacts stored in a mobile device match profiles stored on a social network server. Profiles matching the contacts are used to enrich the contacts by appending information such as images and video to the contacts. The appended information in the contacts are also linked to the source profile so that the contact information may be periodically updated. Information may be drawn from multiple profiles on multiple social network servers to fully enrich the contacts stored on the mobile device. | 06-10-2010 |
