Title: Thomas Adriaan M. Vissers and API Sequence Security

Introduction

Thomas Adriaan M. Vissers is an inventor based in Kapellen, Belgium. His patent work addresses API security in distributed cloud computing networks, with a focus on detecting sequences of API operations and mitigating potential abuse.

Latest Patents

Vissers is associated with 1 patent: “Detecting Application Programming Interface (API) Sequences and Mitigating API Sequence Abuse at the Edge of a Distributed Cloud Computing Network.” The invention describes how a compute server identifies the session associated with an API request and determines which server stores information about that session’s previous API operations. It then retrieves the most recently observed, time-ordered sequence of operations. Based on a sequence of at least two recent API operations, the server can enforce a rule to help detect or mitigate API sequence abuse.

Career Highlights

Vissers is associated with Cloudflare, Inc., a company whose work includes cloud and network security technologies. His patent reflects an approach to evaluating API activity across distributed servers, allowing security rules to consider the order and context of operations rather than treating each request in isolation.

Collaborations

The provided information names Peter Alexander Foster and Louis Vincent Barthonet as Vissers’s coworkers. Their shared professional association places them within the broader team environment connected to his work.

Conclusion

Thomas Adriaan M. Vissers’s patent focuses on using session-linked API sequences to help identify and mitigate abuse at the edge of a distributed cloud computing network.
