Filed:

Apr 2, 2012

Appl. No.:

13/437210

Inventors:

Richard Lamb - Millbrae CA, US

International Classification:

H04L 9/32

US Classification:

713156

Abstract:

A system and method that maintains a secure chain of trust from domain name owner to publication by extending the trust placed in existing cryptographic identity systems to the records published in the Internet's Domain Name System (DNS) and secured by its DNS Security Extensions (DNSSEC) infrastructure. Automated validation and processing occur within a secured processing environment to capture and preserve the cryptographic security from the source request.

Inventors:

Richard Lamb - Millbrae CA, US

International Classification:

H04L 29/06
G06F 21/10

US Classification:

726 26, 709204

Abstract:

A system and method that accepts material from the Internet, computes and maintains a computationally unique representation of the received material in a database, computes a computationally unique representation of the updated database state as a whole, publishes material and database representations in various forms for the global Internet audience to witness, and returns a time stamped attestation to the submitter of material as proof of the material being witnessed on the Internet along with unique database state and revenue generating advertisements. Published representations may include pictures, common words, or hexadecimal character string to facilitate Internet searching mechanisms.

International Classification:

G06F 1300

US Classification:

709219

Abstract:

A domain name server assists user's in selecting desired domains in the Internet. A domain name query is sent from a resolver process, or equivalent process, when the user (or a process on the user's computer) wishes to obtain information. If the domain name exists, the domain name server provides the corresponding machine address back to the user's computer. However, when the domain name query uses a non-existent domain name then a machine address for a computer that executes a domain recommendation engine is returned instead of a machine address associated with the invalid domain. The domain recommendation engine assists the user (or process on the user's computer) in locating a desired domain name. The domain name recommendation engine can take into account numerous factors that assist in determining the intended domain, including common misspellings, phonetic errors, sub-domain errors, past statistics on website accessing by the present user and prior users. Auxiliary information is provided to the user along with information to assist in locating the intended domain.

US Classification:

707600

Abstract:

Embodiments of the present invention include systems and methods for insuring better query consistency between at least two different databases, where one faster database has more up-to-date information than another slower database, and wherein updates are typically applied to the faster database first and then to the slower database. In embodiments, the systems and methods also insure that a query to the slower database is not performed until a set of one or more updates from the faster database have been applied to that slower database.
