An endpoint for trusted fabrication, the endpoint including at least one secure controller configured for connection to a wide area network; and at least one untrusted controller configured for local communication, wherein the endpoint is configured for connection to a fabricator and further configured to receive digitally-signed data specifying at least one item for manufacture; verify the digitally-signed data; and direct the fabricator to manufacture the at least one item after verifying the digitally signed data. A method for trusted on-demand manufacturing, the method including receiving, at an endpoint connected to a fabricator, digitally signed data describing at least one item for manufacture; verifying, at the endpoint, the digitally signed data; and manufacturing the at least one item using the digitally signed data after verifying the digitally signed data, wherein the endpoint comprises at least one secure controller and at least one untrusted controller.

A method of facilitating an anonymous message board may include receiving a secret key share associated with a published public key. An initial table state may be generated by encrypting, via the public key, an initial table including a table index and table initial values. A user post encrypted via the public key may be received, the user post including a message and a message index value. The initial table state may be updated to an updated table state by replacing an initial table value of the initial table values with the message. In response to a time interval associated with a predetermined length of time expiring after generating the initial table state, the updated table state may be partially decrypted via the first secret key share as a partially decrypted table. The partially decrypted table may be broadcast.

The disclosed embodiments relate to a memory device. In one embodiment, a memory device is disclosed comprising a storage array, the storage array including a first region, the first region storing a server public key associated with a server, and a key table; and a controller configured to: receive a message from the server, the message including a command modifying the key table, validate the message using the server public key, and modify the key table based on the message.

The present application relates to networking technologies, communication cube technologies, and, more particularly, to methods, apparatus, techniques, and means for communication security, encryption, and privacy in network communications.

A method for enabling a secure communication with a target device over a network includes: opening an unsecured OPC UA Endpoint by an OPC UA Server that runs on the target device; connecting to the OPC UA Server over the network by an OPC UA Client running on a first device, and requesting the initial device certificate; receiving the initial device certificate by unsecured communication over the network; validating, by the first device, the initial device certificate; establishing, by the first device, a device certificate; encrypting, by the first device, at least the device certificate; sending the encrypted data over the network; decrypting, by the target device, the encrypted data using an initial device private key associated with the initial device certificate to obtain at least the device certificate; storing the device certificate on the target device; and opening a secured OPC UA Endpoint by the OPC UA Server.

Disclosed are systems, methods, devices, and computer-readable media for offloading lattice-based cryptographic operations to hybrid cloud computing system. In one embodiment, a method is disclosed comprising receiving a first network request from a client device via a secure application programming interface (API), the request including unencrypted data; encrypting the unencrypted data using an algorithm that generates homomorphically encrypted data; issuing a second network request to a second API of a cloud platform, the second network request including the encrypted data; receiving a response from the cloud platform in response to the second network request; and transmitting, in response to the first network request, a result to the client device based on the response, the result obtained by decrypting an encrypted output returned by the cloud platform.

A mesh network system suitable for connection to a cloud server is provided. The system includes: a first node device, configured to store a first private key and encrypt to-be-verified data according to the first private key to generate first encrypted data; and a second node device, configured to receive the first encrypted data and send the first encrypted data to the cloud server. After sending the first encrypted data, the second node device obtains, from the cloud server, second encrypted data generated by encrypting a first key according to the first public key. The second node device sends the second encrypted data to the first node device. The first node device decrypts the second encrypted data according to the first private key to obtain the first key from the second encrypted data, and performs encrypted communication with the cloud server according to the first key.

An apparatus to facilitate scalable runtime validation for on-device design rule checks is disclosed. The apparatus includes a memory to store a contention set, one or more multiplexors, and a validator communicably coupled to the memory. In one implementation, the validator is to: receive design rule information for the one or more multiplexers, the design rule information referencing the contention set; analyze, using the design rule information, a user bitstream against the contention set at a programming time of the apparatus, the user bitstream for programming the one or more multiplexors; and provide an error indication responsive to identifying a match between the user bitstream and the contention set.

Described herein are systems and methods that allow for secure wireless communication between a contact lens system and an accessory device to protect sensitive data and prevent unauthorized access to confidential information. In certain embodiments, tampering attempts by potential attackers are thwarted by using a Physically Unclonable Functions (PUF) circuit that is immune to reverse engineering. In addition, sensors monitor a to-be-protected electronic device to detect tampering attempts and physical attacks to ensure the physical integrity of the communication system.

Timely and optimal user completion of pre-staged transactions is implemented by ultra-wideband (UWB) enabled devices at UWB-enabled ATMs. ATM information, transaction scheduling and user prioritization, transaction notifications, and/or haptic-feedback reminders are provided based on one or more real-time and/or predicted geographical locations and proximities, ATM-specific queue wait times, preference scores, historical usage, ATM resources, and/or other relevant data or preferences.
