In a Western District of Texas complaint against Fortinet (2:24-cv-00801) and an Eastern District of Texas complaint against Rubicon Communications (d/b/a Netgate) (1:24-cv-01191), Virginia plaintiff VPN Technology Holdings, LLC has asserted a single patent broadly directed to “configuring a remote computer to access a network of computers”. The respective accused products are the FortiClient platform, which allegedly features “split tunneling functionality that enables a remote user to access local network computers via the Internet” and supports the IPSEC VPN, SSL, and VPN protocols, and, for Netgate, the “pfSense” software, described as “an open-source firewall and router platform which includes integrated support for the configuration of VPN clients on the remote devices by supporting protocols such as OpenVPN, IPsec, and WireGuard”.
