20090276534 | Enterprise Device Policy Management - Methods and systems for managing policies of portable data storage devices in conjunction with a third-party service are disclosed. One or more candidates of a plurality of members in an enterprise may be identifying via the third-party service. Each of the plurality of members may be associated with a respective portable data storage device. An indication provided by the third-party service of one or more candidate devices may be obtained. The one or more candidate devices may each be a portable data storage device associated with a respective candidate. Policies of the one or more candidate devices may be modified. | 11-05-2009 |
20090276623 | Enterprise Device Recovery - An administrator of an enterprise can recover a user secure storage device in conjunction with a third-party service without the administrator knowing a user secure storage device password. The administrator secure storage device is communicatively coupled with a host computer. A user secure storage device is communicatively coupled with a host computer. The administrator secure storage device is authenticated to the third-party service. One or more decryptions are performed on an encrypted portion of data with an enterprise private key and a shared administrator private key to produce information associated with the user secure storage device password. The administrator is logged into the user secure storage device using the information associated with the user secure storage device password without the administrator knowing the user secure storage device password. | 11-05-2009 |
20100250796 | Establishing a Secure Channel between a Server and a Portable Device - Systems and method for forming a secure channel between a server and a portable storage device coupled to a host computer are presented. A message sequence is exchanged between the server and the portable storage device. The message sequence may pass transparently through the host computer to the portable storage device. The server and the portable storage device may be authenticated based on the message sequence. A secure channel may be established between the server and the portable storage device when the server and the portable storage device are authenticated. As such, the host computer, as well as any other interstitial device between the server and the portable storage device, cannot access information transferred via the secure channel. | 09-30-2010 |
20100250921 | Authorizing a Login Request of a Remote Device - Exemplary systems and methods for managed authorization of a login request of a remote device are provided. A user of the remote device may be authorized to login by an authentication server before attempting to login. Upon receipt of a login request from the remote device, an authorization process is performed. Subsequently, a concatenation of data from the login request and a server response based on the determination of whether the remote device is authorized to login is generated. The server response may comprise instructions to authorize the login request, instructions to deny the login request, or instructions to destroy data stored by the remote device. Furthermore, the authentication server or the remote device may log the server response. | 09-30-2010 |
20110035513 | Peripheral Device Data Integrity - A system and method for protecting against corruption of data stored in a peripheral storage device. The peripheral storage device is communicatively coupled with a host computer. The peripheral storage device includes at least memory and a controller. Data from the host computer is stored to a first portion of the peripheral storage device memory. The controller backs up some or all of the data to a second portion of the data to a second portion of the peripheral storage device memory. The controller restores some or all of the data from the second portion of the peripheral storage device memory to the first portion of the peripheral storage device memory. | 02-10-2011 |
20110035574 | Running a Computer from a Secure Portable Device - An operating system is booted from a secure peripheral device on a host computer. The secure peripheral device, which includes a memory, is communicatively coupled with the with the host computer. A first operating system is booted from the memory of the secure peripheral device. A secondary operating system is launched on the first operating system. | 02-10-2011 |
20140337592 | PERIPHERAL DEVICE DATA INTEGRITY - A system and method for protecting against corruption of data stored in a peripheral storage device. The peripheral storage device is communicatively coupled with a host computer. The peripheral storage device includes at least memory and a controller. Data from the host computer is stored to a first portion of the peripheral storage device memory. The controller backs up some or all of the data to a second portion of the data to a second portion of the peripheral storage device memory. The controller restores some or all of the data from the second portion of the peripheral storage device memory to the first portion of the peripheral storage device memory. | 11-13-2014 |
