20090034714 | Systems and methods for identity-based encryption and related cryptographic techniques - A method and system for encrypting a first piece of information M to be sent by a sender [ | 02-05-2009 |
20090113216 | CRYPTOGRAPHIC MULTI-SHADOWING WITH INTEGRITY VERIFICATION - A virtual-machine-based system that may protect the privacy and integrity of application data, even in the event of a total operating system compromise. An application is presented with a normal view of its resources, but the operating system is presented with an encrypted view. This allows the operating system to carry out the complex task of managing an application's resources, without allowing it to read or modify them. Different views of “physical” memory are presented, depending on a context performing the access. An additional dimension of protection beyond the hierarchical protection domains implemented by traditional operating systems and processors is provided. | 04-30-2009 |
20110181470 | Geosecurity methods and devices using geotags derived from noisy location data from multiple sources - In a geo-security system, a device receives RF signals from multiple distinct classes of RF communication systems and extracts location-dependent signal parameters. A current geotag is computed from the parameters by fuzzy extractors involving quantization of the parameters and Reed-Solomon decoding to provide a reproducible unique geotag. The current geotag is compared with a stored geotag, and a geo-secured function of the device is executed based on the result of the comparison. The use of multiple signal sources of different types, combined with special fuzzy extractors provides a robust geotag that allows both lower false rejection rate and lower false acceptance rate. | 07-28-2011 |
20120159188 | Systems and Methods for Identity-Based Encryption and Related Cryptographic Techniques - A method and system for encrypting a first piece of information M to be sent by a sender [100] to a receiver [110] allows both sender and receiver to compute a secret message key using identity-based information and a bilinear map. The sender uses a bilinear map to encrypt a message M, producing ciphertext V to be sent from the sender [100] to the receiver [110]. The receiver [110] uses the bilinear map to decrypt V and recover the original message M. According to one embodiment, the bilinear map is based on a Weil pairing or a Tate pairing defined on a subgroup of an elliptic curve. Also described are several applications of the techniques, including key revocation, credential management, and return receipt notification. | 06-21-2012 |
20120322387 | SYSTEM FOR ANALYZING MOBILE BROWSER ENERGY CONSUMPTION - A system for measuring power consumption by a mobile device corresponding to access of web pages is provided. The system includes: the mobile device, configured to access web pages via a wireless network; a power measurement device connected to a battery of the mobile device, configured to measure parameters related to power consumption; and a server, in communication with the mobile device and the power measurement device, configured to control the mobile device's access of web pages and control the power measurement device's measurement of parameters, to receive measurements from the power measurement device, and to process the received measurements so as to correlate the mobile device's access of a web page with an amount of power consumed corresponding to the mobile device's access of the web page. | 12-20-2012 |
