  • Patent number: 11824841
    Abstract: A constrained device, such as an Internet of Things (IoT) device, can use a handshake procedure to establish a secure transport session with a server and generate a corresponding client session state. The constrained device can encrypt the client session state into an encrypted client session state, and transmit the encrypted client session state to the server. When the constrained device enters an idle mode, the client session state may be cleared from memory of the constrained device. However, when the constrained device next wakes from the idle mode and re-enters an active mode, the constrained device can retrieve the encrypted client session state from the server. The constrained device can decrypt the encrypted client session state to recover the client session state, and use the recovered client session state to resume the secure transport session instead of establishing a new secure transport session with a new client session state.

  • Patent number: 11823060
    Abstract: A method for performing deterministic data processing through Artificial Intelligence (AI) is disclosed. The method may include generating, via a deep learning network, a set of input feature vectors based on input data for a deterministic data processing model. The method may further include providing the set of input feature vectors to a trained AI model. The trained AI model may generate a set of output feature vectors that may correspond to an output data of the deterministic data processing model. The method may further include determining a variation between the set of output feature vectors and the output data, and iteratively performing incremental learning of the AI model based on the determined variation.

  • Patent number: 11818173
    Abstract: For connection establishment, a system allocates memory that will be occupied by the data and handshake sub-protocol infrastructure that facilitates establishing a TLS connection. After connection establishment, the system allocates memory space for the data and record sub-protocol infrastructure that facilitates the asynchronous communication of application traffic. The memory space for the TLS session (i.e., the communication information separate from the handshake) has a substantially smaller footprint than the memory space for the TLS handshake. The TLS handshake memory space can be released and recycled for other connections while application communications use the smaller memory space allocated and populated with the TLS session data and infrastructure.

  • Patent number: 11777719
    Abstract: Elliptic Curve Cryptography (ECC) can provide security against quantum computers that could feasibly determine private keys from public keys. A server communicating with a device can store and use PKI keys comprising server private key ss, device public key Sd, and device ephemeral public key Ed. The device can store and use the corresponding PKI keys, such as server public key Ss. The key use can support all of (i) mutual authentication, (ii) forward secrecy, and (iii) shared secret key exchange. The server and the device can conduct an ECDHE key exchange with the PKI keys to mutually derive a symmetric ciphering key K1. The device can encrypt a device public key PK.Device with K1 and send to the server as a first ciphertext. The server can encrypt a server public key PK.Network with at least K1 and send to the device as a second ciphertext.

    Abstract: A system-on-chip (SoC) includes a memory, a trust provisioning system, a one-time programmable (OTP) element, and a comparator. The memory is configured to store a first secret key before an execution of a trust provisioning operation. The trust provisioning system is configured to receive an encrypted version of a first set of secure assets and one of a second secret key and an encrypted version of the second secret key, and execute the trust provisioning operation on the SoC to store the first set of secure assets and the second secret key in the OTP element. The comparator is configured to compare the first and second secret keys to generate a valid signal that is indicative of a validation of the trust provisioning operation. The first set of secure assets and a second set of secure assets associated with the SoC are accessible based on the valid signal.
