The patent in question is related to VPN, more specifically U.S. Patent No. 8,05,181 for a "Method for Establishing Secure Communication Link Between Computers of Virtual Private Network."
In 2011, VX filed the original complaint, alleging their patent was being used in the iPhone 4S.
In addition to the victory, VirtnetX has also filed a complaint with the U.S. ITC alleging that Apple's entire range of mobile products violate their wireless patents.
The ITC threw out a similar complaint in August, due to a technicality. At the time, VirnetX promised to file a new complaint.
