Disclosed is a method for secured communication by a V2X communication device. A method for secured communication by a V2X communication device comprises the steps of: receiving a message on the basis of V2X communication; extracting adaptive certificate pre-distribution (ACPD) target information when the message includes the ACPD target information; pre-authenticating a short-term certificate; and transferring the pre-authenticated short-term certificate so that the pre-authenticated short-term certificate can be broadcasted at a predicted position.

A pseudonym credential configuration method and apparatus are provided. The method includes: receiving an identifier of a terminal device and information about N to-be-requested pseudonym credentials from the terminal device, sending N second request messages to a pseudonym credential generation server, and storing a tag of each second request message in association with the identifier of the terminal device in the registration server, so that the registration server can obtain, based on the tag, the identifier that is of the terminal device and that is associated with the tag; and generating N pseudonym credentials. The pseudonym credential generated in this application may enable a behavior investigation server to learn of a real identity of the terminal device.

Systems and methods for controlling and tracking computer devices using a secure communication path between a central server and a machine control-file watchdog program. One or more machine control-files can be generated to control, limit and track a computer device using a machine control-file watchdog program. The system sets limits on the computer device to ensure the user operating the computer device stays within a restricted set of usage limitations. The machine control-file watchdog program protects the one or more machine control-files and additionally can report on all activities performed by the computer device to the central server.

Data backup in a vehicle, where a datum is generated by a function implemented on a first control device of the vehicle. The securing of the datum generated is determined using the configuration data stored in a first control device. If the datum generated is to be protected, it is cryptographically marked and/or encrypted. The cryptographically marked and/or encrypted datum is stored in a memory of the first control device. In addition the cryptographically marked and/or encrypted datum or a value derived therefrom is sent over an electronic network of the vehicle to at least one second control device, received by the latter and stored in a memory of the second control device.

A method at a network element for securely sharing services across domains, the method including receiving a request at the network element to add a first domain and an edge domain to a system; provisioning a public key of the network element to the first domain and the edge domain; receiving a public key of the first domain; populating, in the network element, a table with services provided by the first domain or the edge domain; populating, in the network element, a second table with applications installed at the first domain or edge domain and permissions for services for the applications; and controlling access to the services by the applications.

A method and system provided for a single-action with which the customer places an order and receives goods by the single action of connecting an electrical vehicle (EV) to a charging station according to the business terms associated with this invention, the affiliated organizations that purchase or support the operation of the invention participate in a business “franchise” operation whereby all affiliated organizations increase their revenues as the volume of EV charging events increases.

Systems and methods for secure peer-to-peer communications are described. Devices registered into trusted network may be capable of establishing a shared data encryption key (DEK). In embodiments, each device may be configured to obtain a share of a data encryption key (DEKi) that can be stored locally. The shares may be shares in an M of N Secret Sharing Scheme. This may involve a network that includes an integer, N, devices, and in which M devices may share a secret (i.e. the DEK) during communications, M being an integer less than or equal to N. To obtain the entire DEK during encryption/decryption, a requesting device may send requests to M of N devices for their shares of the DEK. Once M shares are obtained, they may be used generate the DEK for encrypting/decrypting data between the devices.

Systems and methods for managing a compromised autonomous vehicle server are described herein. A processor may obtain an indication of a first server configured to control an autonomous vehicle being compromised. The autonomous vehicle may have previously been provisioned with a first public key. The first public key may be paired with a first private key. A processor may compile command information. The command information may include a command for the autonomous vehicle and a digital certificate of a second server configured to control the autonomous vehicle in the event of the first server being compromised. The digital certificate may include a second public key and may be signed with the first private key. The command may be signed with a second private key associated with the second server. The second private key may be paired with the second public key.

Obtaining a certificate record, where the certificate record is sent by a network side device to the first vehicle, and the certificate record includes at least one revoked certificate or at least one valid certificate; and updating, based on the certificate record, a certificate list stored in the first vehicle, where the certificate list is used to record a revoked certificate or a valid certificate of a device that belongs to the first vehicle, or used to record a revoked certificate or a valid certificate of a device that belongs to a first vehicle group, where the first vehicle group includes the first vehicle.

Technical problems and their solution are disclosed regarding the location of mobile devices requesting services near a site from a server. Embodiments adapt and/or configure the transmitting device near the site, the mobile device communicating with the transmitting device using a short haul wireless communications protocol to deliver a token based upon a key shared with the server but invisible to the mobile device. The server can determine the proximity of the mobile device to the site to control actuation of the requested service or disable the service request, and possibly flushing the service request from the server. Solutions are disclosed for traffic intersections involving one or more traffic lights, elevators in buildings, fire alarms in buildings and valet parking facilities.
