Virtualization Network Patent Portfolio (SOLD)

Vitek IP, LLC announced that they are the exclusive representative to sell a broad portfolio of patents from a computer software company specializing in mobile workspace and desktop virtualization environments.

The Virtualization Network patent portfolio contains 49 patents within 32 patent families and covers significant technology related to managing virtualized resources across a network. The patent owner spent over $5 million in developing this patent portfolio from 2010—2015. The 49 issued U.S. patents cover numerous technology applications including file sharing, remote desktops, 3D graphics rendering, single sign-on, and virtualized OS kernel support.

The patent portfolio is directed toward technologies being implemented by major market players. Key patent families are applicable to both file sharing and virtual desktop solutions commonly seen on the market. One patent family in the Virtualization Network portfolio covers controlling access to directories and files in a shared computing environment using whitelists. Many cloud service providers offer shared file access and allow administrators to control permissions for selected users. Vitek IP has documentation of use by major file sharing companies on two patents from this patent family.
