| 20090319741 | SECURE MEMORY MANAGEMENT SYSTEM AND METHOD - The present invention describes a system and a method for securely loading digital information from a storage device into a memory module in a data processing system, said data processing system comprising at least one storage device, one memory module and at least one processor, said data processing system further comprising a memory access controller module connected between the processor and the memory module, and a secure memory management module connected to the processor, the memory module, the storage device and the memory access controller. Requests by the processor for data are passed to the secure memory management module, which loads the data from the storage device to the memory module and configures the memory access controller such that the processor will have access to the data. | 12-24-2009 |
| 20110075843 | UNIT AND METHOD FOR SECURE PROCESSING OF ACCESS CONTROLLED AUDIO/VIDEO DATA - Unit for secure processing access controlled audio/video data capable of receiving control messages(ECM) comprising at least one first control word (CW | 03-31-2011 |
| 20110131389 | METHOD FOR UPDATING DATA IN MEMORIES USING A MEMORY MANAGEMENT UNIT - A method for updating, in the background, data stored in physical memories without affecting the current operations performed by the microprocessor. When the update is completely terminated, the application switches from an old version to a new version. This switching occurs by a reconfiguration of the page table during which a first sub-tree structure of pointers accessing the old version of data stored in memories is replaced by a second sub-tree structure of pointers thus allowing access to the new version of data. This update method prevents incoherent transitory states of the system as the latter works with the previous data version until the installation of the new version becomes usable. In the case of an interruption to the update process, the application can always reinitialize the update since the old version of data can be reactivated by returning to the previous configuration of the page table. | 06-02-2011 |
| 20110154042 | METHOD AND PROCESSING UNIT FOR SECURE PROCESSING OF ACCESS CONTROLLED AUDIO/VIDEO DATA - A method based on access conditions verification performed by two conditional access devices consecutively on a control message before releasing a control word to a descrambler. The control message encapsulates a second part including another control message. The processing unit for carrying out the method comprises a first conditional access device connected to a second conditional access device provided with a descrambler and a secured processor or secured hardware logic. The control message and the second part are each encrypted and accompanied by respectively first and second authentication data. The first conditional access device decrypts and verifies integrity of the control message, verifies the first access conditions and transmits the second part to the second access control device. The second conditional access device decrypts and verifies integrity of the second part and further verifies the second access conditions, and releases and loads the control word into the descrambler. | 06-23-2011 |
