Threshold based computer video output recording application
First Claim
1. A method comprising:
- establishing, by a data processing apparatus that includes electronic circuitry, a network communication with a computing device, wherein the computing device is coupled to the Web and comprises a display device configured to present computer-video-output generated by the computing device;
obtaining, by the data processing apparatus, a Web filter policy and a recording interval, wherein the Web filter policy comprises one or more types of Web traffic generated over a predetermined time, wherein the Web traffic comprises sending requests to and receiving respective responses from the Web, and receiving requests from and sending respective responses to the Web, wherein detection through the established network communication by the data processing apparatus of a violation of the Web filter policy by the computing device causes the data processing apparatus to instruct through the established network communication the computing device to record the computer-video-output generated by the computing device over the recording interval, wherein computer-video-output to be recorded includes at least some computer-video-output that violates the Web filter policy;
monitoring, by the data processing apparatus through the established network communication, the Web filter policy at the computing device;
detecting, by the data processing apparatus through the established network communication and based on the monitoring, a violation of the Web filter policy at the computing device;
in response to detecting the violation of the Web filter policy at the computing device, instructing the computer device, by the data processing apparatus through the established network communication, to record the computer-video-output generated by the computing device over the recording interval, wherein the recorded computer-video-output includes at least some computer-video-output that violates the Web filter policy; and
issuing, by the data processing apparatus, an instruction to store the recorded computer-video-output that includes the at least some computer-video-output that violates the Web filter policy to a storage device.

Abstract
An application that is capable of monitoring Internet or network traffic and performing recordings of computer video output based on network activity thresholds. The recording application is typically not installed on the computer to be recorded but can reside on the computer to be recorded. The application contains a configuration interface that allows a user to set thresholds for certain types of network activity usage. When a threshold is reached, the application will begin a video recording of the computer'"'"'s video activity which will be stored for later use. The application can be configured to include settings such as the length of the recording. For example, the application is a hardware appliance capable of monitoring web activity and network traffic and can connect to the computer over the network in order to perform the recording. The computer to be recorded can have specific software capable of capturing the video.

10. An apparatus comprising:
-
one or more hardware processors communicatively coupled with a computing device, wherein the computing device is coupled to the Web and comprises a display device configured to present computer-video-output generated by the computing device; and non-transitory computer-readable media encoding instructions that, when executed by the one or more hardware processors, cause the apparatus to perform operations comprising; obtain a Web filter policy and a recording interval, wherein the Web filter policy comprises one or more types of Web traffic generated over a predetermined time, wherein the Web traffic comprises sending requests to and receiving respective responses from the Web, and receiving requests from and sending respective responses to the Web, wherein detection through the established network communication by the data processing apparatus of a violation of the Web filter policy by the computing device causes the apparatus to instruct through the established network communication the computing device to record the computer-video-output generated by the computing device over the recording interval, wherein computer-video-output to be recorded includes at least some computer-video-output that violates the Web filter policy, monitor the Web filter policy at the computing device, detect, through the established network communication and based on the monitor, a violation of the Web filter policy at the computing device, once the violation of the Web filter policy is detected at the computing device, instruct the computer device to record the computer-video-output generated by the computing device over the recording interval, wherein the recorded computer-video-output includes at least some computer-video-output that violates the Web filter policy, and issue an instruction to store the recorded computer-video-output that includes the at least some computer-video-output that violates the Web filter policy to a storage device. - View Dependent Claims (11, 12, 13, 14, 15, 16, 17)
