Secure elements broker (SEB) for application communication channel selector optimization
11595820 · 2023-02-28 · ·

Systems and methods for managing concurrent secure elements on a mobile device to coordinate with an application or “app” running on the mobile device and an appropriate communications protocol for conducting transactions using the mobile device include: informing, by the processor, the reader device of a preferred app and a communication protocol usable by the preferred app; receiving, by the processor, information about which apps and communication protocols are supported by a reader for processing a transaction; locating, by the processor, a secure element supporting an app and a communication protocol supported by the reader; channeling the communication protocol for the specific configuration of the app and the supporting secure element; activating the secure element that supports the app; and processing, with the activated secure element, using the supported app and communication channel, the transaction with the reader.

Electronic apparatus and method of selectively applying security mode in mobile device
11595507 · 2023-02-28 ·

A mobile device includes a user interface having a display panel and a touch panel, a network interface to communicate with an external network, a memory to store a password and an authorized user, a functional unit to sense a user and a motion of the mobile device during a power saving mode, and a control unit to control operations of the mobile device, and to perform an unlocking operation during the power saving mode to unlock the mobile device. The unlocking operation includes a motion detection process of sensing the motion of the mobile device, a user identification process of determining that a sensed user represents the authorized user, in response to the sensed motion of the motion detecting process, and an unlocking process of unlocking the mobile device according to the determination of the user identification process.

CONTROLLING ACCESS TO PROTECTED FUNCTIONALITY OF A HOST DEVICE USING A WIRELESS DEVICE
20180007558 · 2018-01-04 · ·

A wearable device can establish a verified session with a host device (e.g., by establishing that the wearable device is present in the vicinity of the host device and is currently being worn). The existence of such a verified session can be used to control user access to sensitive information that may be stored in or otherwise accessible to a host device. For example, the host device and/or application programs executing thereon can be configured to restrict a user's ability to invoke program functionality that accesses sensitive information based on whether a verified session with a wearable device is currently in progress.

OBTAINING OF ACCESS RIGHTS TO A NETWORK, IMPLEMENTED BY A COMMUNICATING OBJECT
20180007542 · 2018-01-04 ·

A method performed by a communicating object to obtain rights to access a communications network. The object initially has rights limited to exchanging data with a rights management platform of the network. The method includes: sending a signaling message to the platform; and receiving a communications profile specific to the network. The profile is associated in the network with rights specific to the object, referred to as “delegated” rights. The delegated rights are defined on the basis of network access rights associated with a user of the object and referred to as “initial” rights. The delegated rights are suitable for enabling the communicating object to access the communications network.

SHARING CONTENT WITH PERMISSION CONTROL USING NEAR FIELD COMMUNICATION
20180007022 · 2018-01-04 ·

A sending device receives a user input indicating that the user wishes to share and open item of content with a receiving device. A near field communication link is opened between the sending device and the receiving device. Metadata for sharing the open data is gathered on the sending device and a permission setting user interface display is displayed, with the user input mechanism that allows a user to set permissions corresponding to the open item. User actuation of the permission setting user input mechanism is received, the permissions are added to the open item, and the metadata is sent to the receiving device over the near field communication link. The metadata includes a location of the open item. The open item can then be accessed by the receiving device, with the permissions applied to the open item.
