A Digital Transaction Processing Unit (DTPU) including a plurality of transaction applications operable for a digital transaction with a Digital Transaction Device (DTD), each of the plurality of transaction applications being associated with a tokenised primary identifier.

A Digital Transaction Processing Unit (DTPU) operable to host one or more transaction applications, the DTPU further operable to reversibly unlock at least one of the one or more transaction applications, wherein each unlocked transaction application is operable for a digital transaction with a Digital Transaction Device (DTD).

Establish a secure connection from a device to a server by, at the device: sending a shared secret request (SSRq) and an obfuscated secret value of the device to the server, wherein the SSRq is encrypted by a symmetric rolling key known to the device and to a trusted authority but not known to the server and the SSRq incorporates a symmetric key for decrypting the device's obfuscated secret value; receiving a shared secret response (SSRs) and an obfuscated secret value of the server, wherein the device's symmetric rolling key encrypts the SSRs and the SSRs incorporates a symmetric server obfuscation key for decrypting the server's obfuscated secret value; calculating a shared secret by hashing a concatenation of the device's secret value and the server's secret value; generating a symmetric session key based on the shared secret; and establishing the secure connection using the symmetric session key.

Embodiments of the present specification disclose trusted data transmission methods, apparatuses, and devices. One method comprising: identifying a data use request of a data requestor; identifying authorization information of a data owner; generating a data use authorization claim based on the authorization information, wherein the data use authorization claim indicates that the data owner authorizes the data requestor to use data; obtaining initial data based on the data use authorization claim; verifying the initial data to obtain target data that is successfully verified, wherein the target data comprises a data validity claim indicating a validity of the target data; and sending the target data to the data requestor.

Disclosed herein are methods, systems, and apparatus, including computer programs encoded on computer storage media, for processing blockchain data under a trusted execution environment (TEE). One of the methods includes receiving, by a blockchain node, a request to execute one or more software instructions in a TEE executing on the blockchain node; determining, by a virtual machine in the TEE, data associated with one or more blockchain accounts to execute the one or more software instructions based on the request; traversing, by the virtual machine, a global state of a blockchain stored in the TEE to locate the data; and executing, by the virtual machine, the one or more software instructions based on the data.

Methods, systems, and apparatus for providing secure communication. The device includes a secure element for generating application key pairs. The device includes a trusted environment that is physically or logically isolated from an untrusted environment. The trusted environment includes one or more processors configured to perform operations of an application. The operations include generating an application key pair. The application key pair includes a secure element private key and a secure element public key. The operations include sending an application authentication request including one or more device identifiers and the secure element public key to a server. The operations include obtaining a digital certificate that includes the secure element public key and the one or more device identifiers. The operations include providing the digital certificate to a second device and establishing a secure communication channel between the device and the second device using the digital certificate.

A secure communications system that includes a trusted platform for securing user data and managing manifestation of user data to third parties in response to requests. The trusted platform may include a platform execution environment that coordinates with a trusted execution environment (TEE) for individual secure user profiles to manage requests for access. In some examples, partners may deploy partner programs to the TEE of a secure user profile for execution against secured user data in the secure user profile. All transactions in the trusted platform may be recorded in a ledger to provide an auditable history for all platform activity. All communication within the trusted platform may be by a secure communications protocol with a security gateway.

A virtual cryptographic module is used to perform cryptographic operations. The virtual cryptographic module may include a fleet of cryptographic modules and a load balancer that determines when a cryptographic module should be added to or removed from the fleet. The fleet size may be adjusted based on detecting a set of conditions that includes the utilization level of the fleet. One or more cryptographic modules of the fleet may be used to fulfill requests to perform cryptographic operations. A cryptographic module may be a hardware security module (“HSM”).

Disclosed herein are methods, systems, and apparatus, for securely executing smart contract operations in a trusted execution environment (TEE). One of the methods includes establishing, by a key management (KM) TEE of a KM node, a trust relationship with a plurality of KM TEEs in a plurality of KM nodes based on performing mutual attestations with the plurality of KM TEEs; initiating a consensus process with the plurality of KM TEEs for reaching consensus on providing one or more encryption keys to a service TEE of the KM node; in response to reaching the consensus with the plurality of KM TEEs, initiating a local attestation process with a service TEE in the KM node; determining that the local attestation process is successful; and in response to determining that the local attestation process is successful, providing one or more encryption keys to the TEE executing on the computing device.

A system and method enabling an entity to prove its identity and provide authentic documents/data/information therein at any time required based upon data retrieved from an independent cryptographically verifiable source (ICVS) through a secured channel is disclosed. The system enables a virtual and secure browser on a user computing device allowing a user to login and retrieve authentic information pertaining to the user from the ICVS in a verifiable and untamperable manner. The retrieved information is bounded with origination information of the ICVS and the bounded information is provided to relying entities as authentic information for verification. Also, cryptographic value of the authentic information can be stored in an immutable storage such as blockchain, so that the cryptographic value is used by the relying-party to validate integrity of the authentic information.
