"Internet software and patent holding holding company VirnetX on Friday officially announced it is asserting four virtual private network patents, the same properties used to secure a $368 million award from Apple on Tuesday, against the Cupertino tech giant's latest products.\r\n\r\n&amp;lt;div align=\"center\"&amp;gt;&amp;lt;img src=\"http://photos.appleinsider.com/12.11.10-VirnetX.jpg\" alt=\"VirnetX Logo\" width=\"400\" height=\"208\" border=\"0\"&amp;gt;&amp;lt;/div&amp;gt;\r\n\r\nAs noted by &amp;lt;em&amp;gt;The Next Web&amp;lt;/em&amp;gt;, VirnetX claims Apple's FaceTime &amp;lt;a href=\"http://thenextweb.com/apple/2012/11/09/after-368-2m-award-in-patent-lawsuit-virnetx-files-another-complaint-against-apple/\"&amp;gt;infringes&amp;lt;/a&amp;gt; on its VPN patents, an assertion that a federal jury in Texas &amp;lt;a href=\"http://appleinsider.com/articles/12/11/06/apple-loses-virnetx-patent-trial-ordered-to-pay-368m\"&amp;gt;agreed with&amp;lt;/a&amp;gt; earlier this week when it ordered Apple to pay $368 million in damages.\r\n\r\nAccording to court documents from the U.S. District Court for the Eastern District of Texas, VirnetX filed the new complaint on the same day it won the favorable jury decision. The most recent lawsuit takes aim at those Apple products which were not included in the previous suit due to their release dates, and include the iPhone 5, fourth-generation iPad, iPad mini, fifth-generation iPod touch and the \"latest Macintosh computers.\" VirnetX is going after all Apple devices with FaceTime capabilities. \r\n\r\nThe same four VPN-related patents used in the previous suit are &amp;lt;a href=\"http://virnetx.com/virnetx-files-new-lawsuit-against-apple/\"&amp;gt;being leveraged&amp;lt;/a&amp;gt; in the new complaint, specifically U.S. Patent Nos. &amp;lt;a href=\"http://patft.uspto.gov/netacgi/nph-Parser?Sect1=PTO1&amp;amp;Sect2=HITOFF&amp;amp;d=PALL&amp;amp;p=1&amp;amp;u=%2Fnetahtml%2FPTO%2Fsrchnum.htm&amp;amp;r=1&amp;amp;f=G&amp;amp;l=50&amp;amp;s1=6,502,135.PN.&amp;amp;OS=PN/6,502,135&amp;amp;RS=PN/6,502,135\"&amp;gt;6,502,135&amp;lt;/a&amp;gt;, &amp;lt;a href=\"http://patft.uspto.gov/netacgi/nph-Parser?Sect1=PTO1&amp;amp;Sect2=HITOFF&amp;amp;d=PALL&amp;amp;p=1&amp;amp;u=%2Fnetahtml%2FPTO%2Fsrchnum.htm&amp;amp;r=1&amp;amp;f=G&amp;amp;l=50&amp;amp;s1=7,418,504.PN.&amp;amp;OS=PN/7,418,504&amp;amp;RS=PN/7,418,504\"&amp;gt;7,418,504&amp;lt;/a&amp;gt;, &amp;lt;a href=\"http://patft.uspto.gov/netacgi/nph-Parser?Sect1=PTO1&amp;amp;Sect2=HITOFF&amp;amp;d=PALL&amp;amp;p=1&amp;amp;u=%2Fnetahtml%2FPTO%2Fsrchnum.htm&amp;amp;r=1&amp;amp;f=G&amp;amp;l=50&amp;amp;s1=7,921,211.PN.&amp;amp;OS=PN/7,921,211&amp;amp;RS=PN/7,921,211\"&amp;gt;7,921,211&amp;lt;/a&amp;gt; and &amp;lt;a href=\"http://patft.uspto.gov/netacgi/nph-Parser?Sect1=PTO1&amp;amp;Sect2=HITOFF&amp;amp;d=PALL&amp;amp;p=1&amp;amp;u=%2Fnetahtml%2FPTO%2Fsrchnum.htm&amp;amp;r=1&amp;amp;f=G&amp;amp;l=50&amp;amp;s1=7,490,151.PN.&amp;amp;OS=PN/7,490,151&amp;amp;RS=PN/7,490,151\"&amp;gt;7,490,151&amp;lt;/a&amp;gt;. VirnetX is looking to force a preliminary injunction against the alleged infringing Apple devices as well as damages related to their sale. \r\n\r\nIn 2010, Microsoft was ordered to pay VirnetX $200 million for violating two similar VPN patents, and the holdings firm is in the midst of ongoing litigation against Cisco Systems, Astra Technologies, and NEC Corporation.\r\n\r\n&amp;lt;div align=\"center\"&amp;gt;&amp;lt;a title=\"View VirnetX Complaint on Scribd\" href=\"http://www.scribd.com/doc/112758573/VirnetX-Complaint\" style=\"margin: 12px auto 6px auto; font-family: Helvetica,Arial,Sans-serif; font-style: normal; font-variant: normal; font-weight: normal; font-size: 14px; line-height: normal; font-size-adjust: none; font-stretch: normal; -x-system-font: none; display: block; text-decoration: underline;\"&amp;gt;VirnetX Complaint&amp;lt;/a&amp;gt;&amp;lt;iframe class=\"scribd_iframe_embed\" src=\"http://www.scribd.com/embeds/112758573/content?start_page=1&amp;amp;view_mode=scroll&amp;amp;access_key=key-vwv31kso5nq7rudvfrp\" data-auto-height=\"false\" data-aspect-ratio=\"0.772727272727273\" scrolling=\"no\" id=\"doc_27319\" width=\"600\" height=\"800\" frameborder=\"0\"&amp;gt;&amp;lt;/iframe&amp;gt;&amp;lt;/div&amp;gt;"^^<http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema#string>
