An electronic device includes a first non-volatile memory and an application circuit. The first non-volatile memory stores first encrypted data encrypted with a global key. The application circuit includes a second non-volatile memory, a decryption unit, a local key unit, and an encryption unit. The second non-volatile memory stores the global key. The decryption unit is coupled to the first non-volatile memory and the second non-volatile memory. The decryption unit retrieves the global key from the second non-volatile memory and decrypts the first encrypted data with the global key to generate plain data. The local key unit generates or stores a local key. The encryption unit is coupled to the local key unit. The encryption unit encrypts the plain data with the local key to generate second encrypted data and overwrites the first encrypted data in the first non-volatile memory with the second encrypted data.

A security system is disclosed in which a secure communication session is established between an external security processor and an interface device. After insertion of the external security processor into the interface device, an authorization server provides authorization to the external security processor and the interface device based on, for example, identification information for each device. A derived key may be generated using a common device security key, and a seed value stored at the interface device. The derived key may then be used for multiple communication sessions between the interface device and the external security processor.

An information processing device including: a data processing unit that generates an encryption key of content; and a communication unit that transmits an encryption key generated by the data processing unit, wherein the data processing unit generates, as the encryption key, individual keys that are different for each new content recording processing on a recording medium in a content recording device, and transmits the individual keys through the communication unit.

The inventions relate to the delivery, transfer of content, and return of uniquely customized physical digital media. Digital content is specifically encrypted for use on a target player associated with a specific customer account. After use, the media is returned to a receiving location where use information is read from the media. Attention is given to cost of delivery, security of content, user experience in selecting, choosing, paying for, viewing or utilizing the content, and usage information created as a result of the content being utilized, rented, purchased, loaded or deleted.

A security system is disclosed in which a device-specific key value is provided to a security processing device, and then used to derive additional derived keys for use in secured communications. In response to identifying a compromise of the derived keys, the system can be instructed to derive new or replacement derived keys for use in the secured communications. In some embodiments, the security system can be used in a video reception device, to decrypt encrypted video content.

A video masking processing method and a video masking processing apparatus using the same are provided. The video masking processing method photographs frames constituting a video, detects at least one masking area to be masked in the photographed frames, masks an image in the detected at least one masking area, inserts masking information including information on the masking into the photographed frame, and stores the frame which has undergone the masking and has the masking information inserted thereinto. Therefore, since images related to personal information in a photographed video are masked, a user does not infringe others' privacy in a video normally photographed by a CCTV or a dashboard camera.
