 parties, and other contractual protections, to protect our intellectual property rights, including our proprietary
technology, software, know-how and brand.

Intellectual property is at
the core of our data collection platform and the basis of our solutions.

Our intellectual property is comprised of our proprietary
reflection technology, carrier grade routing technology, and our reverse access technology.

Carrier grade routing technology

Our unique carrier grade routing
technology system is based on software which is installed both on our global access servers’ network and on servers at the premises
of ISPs that are part of our global network platform. This software allows the ISPs to share the existing IP addresses with external customers
(our customers) without any effect on their current users and without the need to allocate these IPs specifically for our customers. The
software can handle the connectivity between hundreds of our global access servers and the ISPs’ networks and is able to manage
the routing on the transmission control protocol level of hundreds of thousands of concurrent connections without any degradation in the
network performance.

Reflection technology

Our reflection technology
is patent protected in the United States (patent number 11,818,104) titled “ Anonymous Proxying”. The patent describes a revolutionary
method, which brings a novel twist to traditional proxy services. Unlike conventional anonymous proxies, where proxy service client requests
would be rerouted through an intermediate proxy device, thus potentially slowing down the connection and exposing a device’s local
network to security risks, NetNut’s “reflector” method achieves the same end-result without such detour. It cleverly
uses the IP address of an intermediate device to initiate the connection, and after this initial step, client requests are sent directly
to the target server. This method retains the benefits of using a proxy, while masking the original IP address and avoiding the usual
bottleneck of channeling all traffic through a third-party device. The result is a secured, faster, more efficient, and streamlined method
of connecting to the internet, with all the advantages of a proxy but none of the traditional drawbacks.

Reverse access technology

Our reverse access technology
is patent protected in the United States (patent numbers US RE50,113 E and US10110606 titled “ Reverse Access Method for Securing
Front-End Applications and Others”). The Reverse Access patent addresses a problem of securing access to external-facing computing
resources or services, which are often subject to aggressive hacking efforts by malicious actors and other unauthorized people. The Reverse
Access patent solves this problem by providing a “reverse access” mechanism
