Recently recorded patent assignments made public by the USPTO contain noteworthy transfers to multiple plaintiffs now in litigation, including a new source of patents for Apex Beam Technologies LLC, a new source of patents for Pantech Corporation, and a familiar source of patent rights for Crystal Leap Zrt, this time assigning patents directly, though. Movement can also be seen from troubled patent monetization firm IP Edge LLC, as well as movement from various sources to patent broker Allied Security Trust. Take a look.

IP Program Inc. has filed its first lawsuit, asserting two patents, from a family of more than a dozen recently received from Infosil, in a new complaint filed against Juniper Networks (6:20-cv-00746) in the Western District of Texas. The patents respectively pertain to securely “transport[ing] network traffic” through distributed security systems and to an IP processor system for allowing certain session-oriented protocols over IP networks, with infringement allegations focusing on certain network security features within Juniper’s Junos Operating System (OS).
