Company patents
Lookout, Inc.
Lookout, Inc.'s patent strategy shows a surprising and significant shift away from its core security areas, with Network Security & Access Control and Computer Security, representing 66.2% and 47.1% of its portfolio respectively, experiencing sharp declines of -75.0% and -66.7% in 2025, and further drops to 0 and 2 patents so far in 2026. This indicates a dramatic de-prioritization across nearly all categories, with only Wireless Networks showing a modest resurgence in 2026 with 2 patents after a -90.0% decline in 2025.
