Syber Sense IP Holdings, LLC maintains a focused patent portfolio within the Communications technology area. The current prosecution activity is concentrated, as evidenced by 1 pending office action. This action represents the entirety of the company's immediate workload before the patent office. For a practitioner, this volume signifies a streamlined point of interaction with the USPTO.
The portfolio is currently managed by a distinct examiner working within a single art unit. This indicates a specialized examination path for the company's communications innovations. Specifically, BALI, VIKKRAM is identified as the busiest examiner for this portfolio. The use of a single art unit suggests that the technical scope of the filings is narrow enough to be contained within a single administrative group.
BALI, VIKKRAM is responsible for 1 busiest examiner pending office action. For a practitioner, this concentration means that prosecution strategy is currently tied to the tendencies of a single individual. Because there is a single examiner involved, the practitioner can focus on the specific procedural preferences of that individual to optimize the outcome of the active matter.
