On December 14, 2021, the PTAB instituted Post-Grant Review (PGR) for certain claims of U.S. Pat. No. 10,855,671 (the ‘671 Patent) in Netskope, Inc. v. Bitglass, Inc., PGR2021-00091 while, on the same date, denying institution of a PGR for different claims of the ‘671 in Netskope, Inc. v. Bitglass, Inc., PGR2021-00092. The ‘671 patent application is directed to secure access to cloud-based application programs through the validation of single-sign-on requests.
The ‘00092 petition identified numerous related matters including Netskope, Inc. v. Bitglass, Inc., No. 3:21-cv-00916-EMC (N.D. Cal. Feb. 5, 2021) which related to the ‘671 patent, PGR2021-00091, which, as noted above, also challenged claims of the ’671 patent, and IPR2021-01045 and IPR2021-01046, which challenged claims of U.S. Patent No. 10,757,090 which is related to the ’671 patent.
