A tracking device can use a permanent encryption key pair to encrypt a temporary private key that corresponds to a set of diversified temporary public keys. When a community mobile device subsequently detects the tracking device, the central tracking system provides a diversified temporary public key to the community mobile device. The community mobile device uses the diversified temporary public key to encrypt location data representative of a location of the community mobile device, and provides the encrypted location data to the central tracking system. When a user subsequently requests a location of the tracking device from the central tracking system, the central tracking system provides the encrypted temporary private key and the encrypted location data to a device of the user, and the device can decrypt the encrypted temporary private key using the permanent encryption key pair, and decrypt the encrypted location data using the decrypted temporary private key.

A first entity may provide a request to transmit data from the first entity to a second entity. The first entity may receive a session key from the second entity in response to the request where the session key is encrypted by a second key that is based on a combination of a public key and a location associated with the second entity. A location associated with the first entity may be identified. Furthermore, a first key may be generated based on a combination of the location associated with the first entity and a private key that corresponds to the public key. The first key may decrypt data encrypted by the second key when the location associated with the first entity corresponds to the location associated with the second entity.

An asset trading system utilizing a distributed ledger and configured to: when a creation request to create a digital fund token representing at least one share of a fund having a plurality of different assets (i) is received, (ii) is electronically signed with a private key associated with a first addressed account, and (iii) indicates a composition of the at least one share of the fund: place the plurality of different assets represented by the at least one share of the fund into an escrow account; create the digital fund token, wherein the digital fund token indicates the composition of the share of the fund; and record the creation of the digital fund token on a distributed ledger.

Visually enrolling a camera using an optical code and a picture file, including: receiving the picture file and the optical code from the camera, wherein the optical code includes a public key of the camera; generating a visual challenge using a nonce created by a random number generator; transmitting the visual challenge to a user of the camera to capture the visual challenge; receiving the captured visual challenge from the camera; extracting a response from the captured visual challenge; comparing the response to the nonce to verify a signature of the captured visual challenge using the public key of the camera and to convert the optical code received from the camera into a valid certificate; and enrolling the camera and adding the valid certificate to a key store.

A method for offline transmission of blockchain details includes: storing, in a computing device, a first private key and a currency amount; receiving a first destination address associated with a blockchain network and a transaction amount; generating a second private key; generating a second destination address associated with the blockchain network using the second private key; generating a blockchain transaction including at least the first destination address, the transaction amount, the second destination address, and a remainder amount based on at least the currency amount and the transaction amount; signing the generated blockchain transaction using the first private key; executing a query to replace the first private key with the second private key, wherein replacement of the first private key includes deletion of the first private key from the computing device; and transmitting the generated blockchain transaction.

A method and a computer system is provided for executing the method for providing a registration data directory service (RDDS). The method includes obtaining, at a RDDS, a RDDS query comprising a location assertion from a RDDS client from a RDDS client; providing, by the RDDS, a request for personally identifying information (PII) for the RDDS query from a privacy provider, wherein the request comprises the location assertion; obtaining, by the RDDS, the PII for the RDDS query; and providing, by the RDDS, a response to the RDDS query to the RDDS client, wherein the response comprises PII.
