20140108822 | CONTROLLER TO BE INCORPORATED IN STORAGE MEDIUM DEVICE, STORAGE MEDIUM DEVICE, SYSTEM FOR MANUFACTURING STORAGE MEDIUM DEVICE, AND METHOD FOR MANUFACTURING STORAGE MEDIUM DEVICE - Provided is a controller capable of preventing card makers from conducting unauthorized acts. The controller includes: a controller key storage unit configured to hold a controller key that has been embedded by a controller manufacturing device in advance; a decryption unit configured to receive encrypted media key information that has been generated by a key issuance center that is authorized and to decrypt the received encrypted media key by using the controller key, the encrypted key information generated through encryption of key information with use of the controller key; and an encryption unit configured to encrypt the decrypted media key again by using an individual key that is unique to the controller. | 04-17-2014 |
20140129842 | UNAUTHORIZED CONTENTS DETECTION SYSTEM - A data processing device for playing back a digital work reduces the processing load involved in verification by using only a predetermined number of encrypted units selected randomly from multiple encrypted units constituting encrypted contents recorded on a DVD. In addition, the data processing device improves the accuracy of detecting unauthorized contents by randomly selecting a predetermined number of encrypted units every time the verification is performed. | 05-08-2014 |
20140317410 | NETWORK SERVICE INTERMEDIATION METHOD AND INTERMEDIATION SYSTEM - An intermediation method used in an intermediation system that includes an intermediation device determining a permission for application services requiring user authentication on a network, where in response to a user request, a first account used for a first service and a second account used for a second service, and a registration request for using the linking service linking the first application service and the second application service are associated with each other, when the two accounts are valid, as accounts usable in a linking service, an association between the first and second services is stored in the intermediation device, and when the user makes a request to use the linked services, that use is controlled by a query to the intermediation device regarding whether the account is associated as able to use the linking service. | 10-23-2014 |
20150127948 | UNAUTHORIZED CONTENTS DETECTION SYSTEM - A data processing device for playing back a digital work reduces the processing load involved in verification by using only a predetermined number of encrypted units selected randomly from multiple encrypted units constituting encrypted contents recorded on a DVD. In addition, the data processing device improves the accuracy of detecting unauthorized contents by randomly selecting a predetermined number of encrypted units every time the verification is performed. | 05-07-2015 |
20150189359 | CONTENT RECORDING METHOD, RECORDING APPARATUS, AND RECORDING SYSTEM - A content recording method for a recording apparatus includes the following steps: an automatic recording control step of automatically recording a first plurality of pieces of content in a channel automatic recording area, each of the first plurality of pieces of content being broadcast through a channel in a time slot; a deletion step of instructing a mobile apparatus to delete a first piece of content that has previously been copied or moved from the channel automatic recording area to the mobile apparatus when the recording apparatus detects that the recording apparatus has become able to communicate with the mobile apparatus; and a content transfer step of copying or moving a second piece of content included in the first plurality of pieces of content to the mobile apparatus when the recording apparatus detects that the recording apparatus has become able to communicate with the mobile apparatus. | 07-02-2015 |
20150220998 | ADVERTISEMENT DISTRIBUTION METHOD AND ADVERTISEMENT DISTRIBUTION SYSTEM - To provide an advertisement distribution method of determining a distribution destination of an advertisement of a product that has a low direct relevance to execution pieces of information collected from home appliances. The advertisement distribution method includes: a collecting step of collecting, from each of one or more of home appliances owned by each of users, one or more pieces of execution information each indicating a function that has been executed by the home appliance; a detecting step of, with respect to each user, detecting an unused function that has not been used in each home appliance by analyzing the collected pieces of execution information and functions of the home appliance; and a transmitting step of extracting a user who is expected to purchase a product based on a detection result, and transmitting an advertisement to one or more of the home appliances owned by the extracted user. | 08-06-2015 |
