20090072889Charge Pump - An improved charge pump design useful in low power applications derives an alternative voltage from a supply voltage. The design can be constructed using PMOS manufactured according to standard processes such that triple well manufacturing processes are not required. The design can incorporate control gate circuitry to increase efficiency and decrease degradation due to the threshold voltage of the transistors used.03-19-2009
20100127752LEVEL SHIFTER WITH LOW VOLTAGE DEVICES - A voltage level shifter is disclosed that includes low voltage devices. In some implementations, a voltage level shifter having a differential structure includes low voltage, complementary N-channel metal oxide semiconductor (NMOS) input transistors and low voltage, complementary cross-coupled P-channel metal oxide semiconductor (PMOS) output transistors. One or more complementary NMOS/PMOS series intermediate transistor pairs are interposed between respective drains of the NMOS transistors and PMOS transistors to limit high voltage drops across the NMOS input transistors and PMOS output transistors. In some implementations, each intermediate transistor pair is biased by a single intermediate voltage. The sources of the low voltage devices are connect to a bulk/substrate. The complementary outputs of the level shifter can be taken from the drains of the NMOS/PMOS series intermediate transistor pairs.05-27-2010

20090193511TWO-FACTOR USB AUTHENTICATION TOKEN - The present patent application discloses a USB token that advantageously mimics a human interface device such as a keyboard in interacting with a host computer, thus removing the need for pre-installation of a dedicated device driver. This is accomplished by requiring the host computer to direct the input of the attached human interface devices of the keyboard type, including the USB token, exclusively to the program interacting with the USB token, by using cryptographic algorithms based on a shared secret, which require less data to be transferred than PKI-based algorithms, and by employing an efficient encoding scheme that minimizes the time needed to exchange information with the USB token, and minimizes the probability of generating ambiguity with input that might legitimately be generated by other attached human interface devices. By using only symmetric encryption and the low-speed USB protocol, a single low-performance processor may be used, which results in a more cost-effective solution than PKI USB tokens emulating the combination of smart cards and smart card readers or USB tokens presenting themselves to the host computer as mass storage devices. The overall security is increased by adding a second authentication factor consisting of a static password entered by the user, and by limiting the number of valid token response that can be generated or retrieved in a usage session.07-30-2009
20090210712METHOD FOR SERVER-SIDE DETECTION OF MAN-IN-THE-MIDDLE ATTACKS - Problem The combination of a tendency towards permissivity when verifying certificate authenticity and the use of in-band client authentication opens up an opportunity for attackers to mount man-in-the-middle attacks on SSL connections.08-20-2009
20110314290DIGIPASS FOR WEB-FUNCTIONAL DESCRIPTION - The DigiPass for the Web provides security for internet communication greater than that achieved by the use of a static password without requiring the user to install any software or to possess or use dedicated hardware of any kind. The user merely access an appropriate website which downloads an applet to the user's browser. This is a conventional function which is handled by the browser and does not require any expertise on the part of the user. The browser relies on a password known only to the user for authenticating the user to the browser/applet. The browser/applet interacts with the server to create an authentication key which is then stored on the user's computer. The user can invoke the authentication key dependent on the user's presentation to the browser/applet of the password. Since the password is not used outside the user-browser/applet interaction it is not subject to attacks by hackers. The authentication key is also protected from attacks by encryption although the user need not memorize any information other than the password.12-22-2011
