Company patents

AirWatch LLC

AirWatch LLC's patent strategy shows a surprising and dramatic shift, with nearly all categories experiencing a complete cessation of new patent grants in 2025, following significant declines in 2024. For instance, core areas like Network Security & Access Control (50.0% of portfolio) and Computer Security (38.9% of portfolio) saw their patenting activity drop by 100.0% in 2025 after respective -20.0% and -25.0% declines in 2024, indicating a potential divestment or a complete overhaul of their IP generation strategy.

Securely authorizing access to remote resources

Filed:2020-09-29Pub:2023-01-31
Applicant:AirWatch, LLC

Methods and an apparatus are provided for securely authorizing access to remote resources. For example, a method is provided that includes receiving a request to determine whether a user device communicatively coupled to a resource server is authorized to access at least one resource hosted by the resource server and determining whether the user device communicatively coupled to the resource server is authorized to access the at least one resource hosted by the resource server based at least in part on whether the user device communicatively coupled to the resource server has been issued a management identifier. The method further includes providing a response indicating that the user device communicatively coupled to the resource server is authorized to access the at least one resource hosted by the resource server in response to a determination that the user device communicatively coupled to the resource server is authorized to access the at least one resource hosted by the resource server. The method yet further includes providing a response indicating that the user device communicatively coupled to the resource server is not authorized to access the at least one resource hosted by the resource server in response to a determination that the user device communicatively coupled to the resource server is not authorized to access the at least one resource hosted by the resource server.
