The invention relates to a process for transmitting streaming digital content to a client device for access to digital content. The inventive process makes it possible, in particular, to apply an access control system to the protection of direct-mode video streams. The process also makes it possible to significantly improve the security and safety of the system, based on a periodic mandatory back-communication on the part of the client device.

It is provided an information sharing system, comprising a server, and an in-vehicle system. The server includes: a first storage part; a first key generation part configured to generate a first private key and a first public key, if keys can be exchanged with the in-vehicle system; and a signature generation part configured to generate a signature value of the first public key using a server private key. The in-vehicle system includes: a second storage part configured to store a public key certificate including a server public key; a signature verification part configured to verify the first public key and a signature value received from the server, using a public key certificate; and a second key generation part configured to generate a second private key and a second public key, if a combination of the first public key and the signature value is correct as a result of the verification.

Systems and methods for detection of attacks on a communication authentication layer of an in-vehicle network, including determining, by at least one network node, at least one attack attempt on the communication authentication layer of the in-vehicle network, wherein the determination is carried out by identifying anomalies in at least one of messages, data and metadata directed to the communication authentication layer, and selecting, by the at least one network node, a response corresponding to the determined attack attempt from at least one of modification of parameter values corresponding to a security protocol, a failsafe response, and rejection of messages identified as anomalies.

A method for users of devices including mobile phones and computers to engage in encrypted communications with other devices using asymmetrical key exchange technology, involving the user of a device first creating a password and then at a later time re-entering that password on the device, with the result that when the password is re-entered the device is able to decrypt a set of software components that are required for a fresh session of encrypted communications.

A method of managing a file of a subscriber authenticating module embedded in a terminal device and a module for authenticating a subscriber by using the method. The method of managing the file includes configuring a file structure for one or more profiles and managing one or more files included in the file structure in response to a request. Thus, the method is efficient for a multiple-profile environment.

In accordance with embodiments, there are provided mechanisms and methods for sharing content via links. These mechanisms and methods for sharing content via links can enable customizable features associated with the operations related to those links. These features may include generating customized reports on usage of the links, and/or exposing one or more application programming interfaces (APIs) enabling applications to access the links and/or logic associated with operations related to those links.

A data transmission method and apparatus are disclosed that resolves a technical problem where an existing data encryption algorithm offers poor security during transmission of data. The solution includes obtaining, by a first terminal, a data transmission request sent by a second terminal, the data transmission request at least carrying first encrypted data that is obtained by encrypting first exchange key of the second terminal by using a private key of the second terminal. The solution further includes decrypting, by the first terminal, the first encrypted data by using a public key of the second terminal to obtain the first exchange key, and obtaining a shared key of the first terminal and the second terminal according to the first exchange key. The solution further includes encrypting, by the first terminal, to-be-transmitted data by using the shared key to obtain encrypted to-be-transmitted data, and sending the encrypted to-be-transmitted data to the second terminal.

A trusted branded email method and apparatus in one aspect detects branded electronic messages and performs validation before it is sent to a recipient. In another aspect, an electronic messages is branded by embedding branding assets and validation signatures. Algorithms that generate validation signatures are dynamically selected to further strengthen the security aspects. Branding assets are presented to a user using a distinct indicia that represents to the user that the branding assets are secure.

A method and a device for authenticating a user. A signal representative of at least one character traced by the user on a surface of a transmitter device is received by the authentication device. The transmitter device includes an antenna able to transmit a radio signal to a terminal of the user via a channel using the electromagnetic wave conduction capabilities of the body of the user when the hand of the user traces the at least one character on or close to the surface of the transmitter device. The authentication device checks whether the received signal corresponds to a previously stored control signal and, in the event of a positive check, confirms authentication of the user.

A digital asset is represented and verified as a set of related digital asset or other content objects. Related metadata is stored on an immutable distributed ledger separately from the content objects themselves. For example, a transaction object includes metadata such as identifiers for two or more content objects, fingerprints for the content objects. The content objects may be stored in a local or cloud object repository. Validation of a later identified content object may include determining a fingerprint for the later identified content object, mapping that fingerprint to an address within the immutable distributed ledger to retrieve metadata previously mapped, and comparing the two fingerprints. Visual validation may be provided when the first and second fingerprints match, such as by displaying a positive icon adjacent the later identified object.
