| 20110173457 | ENHANCED SECURITY FOR OVER THE AIR (OTA) FIRMWARE CHANGES - A system and method for providing enhanced security for Over The Air (OTA) firmware changes defers decryption of a firmware image until it is transferred into a protected internal memory of a wireless device. An updated firmware image is encrypted at a source and transmitted to a wireless device having a processor, internal memory, and external memory. The wireless device stores the encrypted firmware image in its external memory. In response to receiving an instruction to load a new firmware image, the processor retrieves the encrypted firmware image from the external memory. The processor decrypts the encrypted firmware image and programs the internal memory in accordance with the decrypted firmware image. | 07-14-2011 |
| 20110276808 | APPLICATION INSTALLING METHOD - An application installing method according to the present invention in which an application file includes at least two application encrypting data in which the executable files are respectively encrypted using different encryption algorithms, and a license file includes at least two license encryption data in which application decryption keys for decrypting the application encryption data are encrypted using respectively different encryption algorithms. The process execution apparatus includes a calculation unit configured to execute the executable file, and a storage unit configured to store the application file and the license file. The method includes a step of decrypting the application encryption data by use of the application decryption key with the calculation unit based on the level of priority of the predesignated application encryption data stored in the storage unit, and installing the executable file corresponding to the application encryption data. | 11-10-2011 |
| 20120260108 | FONT ENCRYPTION AND DECRYPTION SYSTEM AND METHOD - Systems and methods in accordance with aspects of the present invention can be implemented to prevent automated, semi-automated, or manual searching, indexing, copying, and surveillance of electronic content, e.g., content in online documents or pages. Such systems and methods can also enable a human user to see the electronic content properly on a display, while the content remains unintelligible to computer programs. Thus, in accordance with the present invention, a computer application and a human user can interpret or “see” an electronic document differently. | 10-11-2012 |
| 20130073869 | INFORMATION PROCESSING APPARATUS, SOFTWARE UPDATING METHOD, AND IMAGE PROCESSING APPARATUS - An information processing apparatus which updates a basic software package is disclosed. The information processing apparatus includes an encryption and decryption unit which stores values calculated uniquely from software and encrypts information based on the calculated values and decrypts encrypted information based on the calculated values. The basic software package includes a firmware authenticating module for authenticating a firmware updating file which includes new software for updating the basic software package, a value uniquely calculated from the new software, and a public key signature. The information processing apparatus further includes a software updating module which updates the basic software package by using the authenticated firmware updating file, and an encryption key managing module for encrypting again the information encrypted by the values based on a value changed by updating the basic software package. | 03-21-2013 |
| 20130166921 | PORTING DIGITAL RIGHTS MANAGEMENT SERVICE TO MULTIPLE COMPUTING PLATFORMS - Methods, systems, and apparatus, including computer programs encoded on a computer storage medium, for porting digital rights management services. In one aspect, a system includes: a hardware processor; one or more memory devices coupled with the hardware processor and effecting an operating system for the hardware processor; and a digital rights management (DRM) component having a DRM adaptor configured to check whether the hardware processor has a hardware-based encryption element, use the hardware-based encryption element if available, and use a software-based encryption element if the hardware-based encryption element is not available, wherein the software-based encryption element includes code compiled from source code for the hardware processor, the source code prepared for different computer platforms. | 06-27-2013 |
| 20130262878 | APPLICATION INSTALLING METHOD - An application installing method according to the present invention in which an application file includes at least two application encrypting data in which the executable files are respectively encrypted using different encryption algorithms, and a license file includes at least two license encryption data in which application decryption keys for decrypting the application encryption data are encrypted using respectively different encryption algorithms. The process execution apparatus includes a calculation unit configured to execute the executable file, and a storage unit configured to store the application file and the license file. The method includes a step of decrypting the application encryption data by use of the application decryption key with the calculation unit based on the level of priority of the predesignated application encryption data stored in the storage unit, and installing the executable file corresponding to the application encryption data. | 10-03-2013 |
| 20140164789 | AUTHENTICATING MICROCODE PATCHES WITH EXTERNAL ENCRYPTION ENGINE - A single or multicore processor having a separate hardware cryptographic engine (HCE) for microcode patch updates is presented. Microcode in each core is modified to utilize the HCE for patch updates. Various arrangements are presented. Memory for HCE processing can include shared L2 or L3 memory or a separate DRAM configured in the address space of each core or set of cores and the HCE. In some embodiments, the HCE may be located on a circuit card attached to an extension bus, such as a PCIe or LPC bus. | 06-12-2014 |
| 20140344585 | Secure Software And Hardware Association Technique - Authenticated hardware and authenticated software are cryptographically associated using symmetric and asymmetric cryptography. Cryptographically binding the hardware and software ensures that original equipment manufacturer (OEM) hardware will only run OEM software. Cryptographically binding the hardware and software protects the OEM binary code so it will only run on the OEM hardware and cannot be replicated or altered to operate on unauthorized hardware. In one embodiment, critical security information associated with the equipment is loaded from a memory at startup time. The critical security information is stored in the memory, in encrypted form, using a unique secret value. The secret value is used to retrieve a chip encryption key and one or more image authentication keys that can be used to associate program code with an original equipment manufacturer. These keys are used to authenticate the program code. | 11-20-2014 |
