20230232227 · 2023-07-20 ·

A method includes receiving, by an embedded universal integrated circuit card (eUICC), first information from a local profile assistant (LPA), where the first information includes a first certificate issuer (CI) public key identifier, and the first CI public key identifier is a CI public key identifier that the eUICC does not have. The method further includes sending, by the eUICC, second information to an OPS, where the second information includes the first CI public key identifier. The method further includes receiving, by the eUICC, a patch package from the OPS, where the patch package includes at least a first CI public key corresponding to the first CI public key identifier. The method further includes updating, by the eUICC, a CI public key of the eUICC by using the first CI public key.

COMPUTER-IMPLEMENTED SYSTEM AND METHOD FOR CONTROLLING PROCESSING STEPS OF A DISTRIBUTED SYSTEM
20230231908 · 2023-07-20 ·

A method of controlling and coordinating of processing steps in a distributed system can be implemented by an initiator node of a cyclically-ordered set of nodes participating in a blockchain network (e.g., Bitcoin blockchain). The method includes generating a private key and cryptographic shares thereof for the nodes of the set and distributing them. A locking value is determined based on the shares and a transaction is arranged to transmit control of a resource responsive to supply of a corresponding unlocking value. A circuit of transactions amongst the nodes each arranged to transmit control of a resource responsive to supply of an unlocking value corresponding to a locking value determined based on the share distributed to a first node of one of two adjacent nodes and a value received from another node immediately previous to it is prepared. The initiator node may belong to a cyclically-ordered set of initiator nodes.

ECDHE Key Exchange for Mutual Authentication Using a Key Server
20230231702 · 2023-07-20 · ·

A server can record a device static public key (Sd) and a server static private key (ss). The server can receive a message with (i) a device ephemeral public key (Ed) and (ii) a ciphertext encrypted with key K1. The server can (i) conduct an EC point addition operation on Sd and Ed and (ii) send the resulting point/secret X0 to a key server. The key server can (i) perform a first elliptic curve Diffie-Hellman (ECDH) key exchange using X0 and a network static private key to derive a point/secret X1, and (ii) send X1 to the server. The server can conduct a second ECDH key exchange using the server static private key and point X0 to derive point X2. The server can conduct an EC point addition on X1 and X2 to derive X3. The server can derive K1 using X3 and decrypt the ciphertext.

Anisotropic compression as applied to columnar storage formats

Herein are spatially scalable techniques for anisotropic compression of shared entropy between alternate representations of same data. In an embodiment, a computer compresses an uncompressed independent column into a compressed independent column. Based on the compressed independent column, an uncompressed dependent column is compressed into a compressed dependent column. The compressed independent column and the compressed dependent column are stored in a same file. In an embodiment, a computer stores, in metadata, an encrypted private key for decrypting an encrypted column. The encrypted column and the metadata are stored in a file. A request to read the encrypted column is received. Based on a public key and the file, the encrypted private key is decrypted into a decrypted private key. The public key is contained in the request and/or the file. The request is executed by decrypting, based on the decrypted private key and the file, the encrypted column.

Distributed anonymous scoring technique

In some examples, a system for implementing a protocol for data transmission can include a processor to transmit a public key or an encrypted name to a ledger of a source computing device and receive a scoring code, training data, and data definitions from the source computing device. The processor can also transmit predicted labels encrypted with the public key to the source computing device, the predicted labels based on the training data and the data definitions, and receive labeled test data from the source computing device. The processor can also transmit decrypted predicted labels to the source computing device, receive a list of evaluation results from a set of remote computing devices, transmit scoring results based on the list of evaluation results to the set of remote computing devices, and execute an instruction based on a techniques corresponding to a highest score from the scoring results.

System, method, and computer program product for implementing zero round trip secure communications based on noisy secrets with a polynomial secret sharing scheme
11563584 · 2023-01-24 · ·

Zero round trip secure communications are implemented based on noisy secrets with a polynomial secret sharing scheme. A sender identifies two negotiated noisy secrets associated with an encrypted message to send to a receiver system. The sender utilizes a first negotiated noisy secret for sub-key selection, and generates a secret polynomial using Shamir's polynomial-based secret sharing scheme with N positive integer points and a message key as a secret. The sender divides the first negotiated noisy secret into a plurality of sub-keys, and divides a second negotiated noisy secret into test blocks of a length equivalent to a length of a sub-key. The sender utilizes each of the plurality sub-keys for encrypting a corresponding test block along with one unique point of the secret polynomial. Moreover, the sender sends all encrypted test blocks and corresponding encrypted points of the secret polynomial to the receiver with the encrypted message.
