This SFOR victory is a slam dunk and could happen
Post# of 82672
IN SFOR's CASE, THE DISTRICT COURT DIDN'T EVEN SEEM TO REVIEW ANY OF THE ACTUAL INFORMATION REGARDING SFOR's PATENTS.
THIS WILL BE A NO-BRAINER TO OVERTURN.

Court Dismisses Complaint and Invalidates Widely Asserted Patents
Knobbe Martens, one of the leading intellectual property law firms in the United States, received an order from the U.S. District Court for the Central District of California in Strikeforce Technologies, Inc. v. SecureAuth Corporation granting SecureAuth’s motion to dismiss StrikeForce’s complaint and invalidating StrikeForce’s asserted patents under 35 U.S.C. § 101.
StrikeForce has asserted one or more of the patents against numerous defendants in Massachusetts, New Jersey, and Virginia, including Gemalto, Inc., Vasco Data Security International, Centrify Corp., Duo Security Inc., Trustwave Holdings, Inc., and Entrust, Inc.
StrikeForce initially asserted three patents against SecureAuth in the Eastern District of Virginia. Knobbe Martens, on behalf of SecureAuth, convinced the Virginia court to transfer the action to the Central District of California, where SecureAuth’s headquarters is located.
Knobbe Martens then filed an early motion to dismiss StrikeForce’s complaint on the grounds that the asserted patents were invalid under 35 U.S.C. § 101. The court granted SecureAuth’s motion and invalidated all 43 asserted claims in StrikeForce’s three asserted patents.
The court’s decision resolves the dispute at an early stage and is the first to invalidate StrikeForce’s patents, which have been asserted nationwide. “We are pleased that Knobbe Martens and the SecureAuth team paved the path to invalidating these widely asserted patents,” said Jeff Kukowski, CEO of SecureAuth and Core Security. “Resolution at an early stage enables us and our industry colleagues to focus on delivering value to our customers instead of on these types of claims.”
