Number of Defendants in Product Activation Software Campaign Doubles

Greater Boston Authentication Solutions, LLC (GBAS) has kept its sole litigation campaign active, suing Autodesk (1:18-cv-10215), Juniper Networks (1:18-cv-10217), National Instruments (1:18-cv-10218), and Siemens (1:18-cv-10219) roughly a week after the NPE’s last open case, against Actian, was dismissed with prejudice. Complaints throughout the campaign have asserted all three members of a family of patents generally related to unlocking remote electronic data, with infringement allegations focused on the defendants’ product activation software.
