Analysis

AO Kaspersky Lab has 5 pending office actions in Networking & Security. The matters involve 4 distinct examiners and 4 distinct art units, indicating a distributed docket with limited overlap among assignments.

TSAI, JAMES T is the busiest examiner, with 2 pending matters. That examiner is a useful coordination point, but counsel must also address the separate examination records associated with the other assignments.

The matching examiner and art-unit breadth suggests that the matters are spread across technical groupings rather than concentrated in one examination unit. Portfolio review should therefore preserve matter-level distinctions while looking for common security or networking claim issues.
