Eli tyala liqhubeke ngaphezulu kweminyaka elishumi, amalungelo awodwa omenzi wechiza angahambelaniyo nomsebenzi ongundoqo weemveliso zethu kwaye zibhengezwe njengezingekho mthethweni yi-patent office. Amatyala anje asebenza kuphela ekunqandeni izinto ezintsha kunye nokwenzakalisa abathengi.

Emva kokwazi esi sigqibo, izabelo zeVirnetX zonyuke ngeepesenti ezingama-21, ngelixa ezo zeApple zawa iisenti ezimbalwa. Phambi kokuba aqale ukukhupha imali kwi-Apple, wayigxeka iMicrosoft ngo-2010, ekwafikelela kuyo isivumelwano sokuba wamnika i-200 yezigidi zeedola.
