Software & Applications
Software and applications touch every sector of the economy, from enterprise systems and cloud platforms to mobile apps, gaming, and embedded software. Innovations in this space range from system-level software—including operating systems, compilers, BIOS, firmware (UEFI), device drivers, virtualization software (hypervisors), microkernels and real-time operating systems (RTOS), middleware frameworks, virtual machines, trusted execution environments (TEEs), bootloaders, and high-availability systems—to cloud and application frameworks such as containers, open-source software, Software as a Service (SaaS), Infrastructure as a Service (IaaS), and Functions as a Service (FaaS). The field also extends to user interfaces, APIs, databases, and software-driven business methods.
Nearly all Alliance IP software attorneys bring direct experience with software-related technologies, ranging from enterprise software and digital health applications to cybersecurity, video compression, and cloud-native platforms. We have drafted and prosecuted software patents, helping clients protect innovations that improve efficiency, enable connectivity, and enhance user engagement, while also guiding them through the unique challenges of patenting in this rapidly evolving field.
