Wibu-Systems AG currently manages 1 pending office action within the Networking & Security technology area. This action is assigned to 1 distinct examiner and is situated within a distinct art unit. This structure shows a concentrated prosecution profile with a single active matter currently under review at the USPTO.
The busiest examiner for this portfolio is HARRIS, CHRISTOPHER C, who is handling 1 pending office action. Since there is only the pending action in total for Wibu-Systems AG, HARRIS, CHRISTOPHER C is responsible for the company's entire active workload. The progress of the company's intellectual property in the Networking & Security sector is currently tied to this examiner's review.
For practitioners, the Wibu-Systems AG profile indicates a narrow prosecution channel. With 1 distinct examiner and the distinct art unit, there is no distribution of risk or workload across different parts of the USPTO. The focus on the art unit suggests a specific security technology is being pursued. Strategy must be tailored specifically to the requirements and tendencies of HARRIS, CHRISTOPHER C to advance the pending action.
Difficulty is derived from the rejection statutes on the most recent pending office action. §101-driven and multi-statute cases are graded Hard; §112-only and obviousness-type double-patenting cases are graded Easy; everything else is Medium. "Unknown" means we have not yet parsed a statute for that office action.
