Abstract: A method and device for verification of an access code for a service, wherein the access code is at least one object type to be recognized by the device. The method includes: obtaining data from at least one image comprising at least one object; making use of an artificial intelligence to recognize an object type in the image data; and in the event that the object type is recognized, giving access to the service.

Abstract: A technique for connecting a user device to a service. The device sends a request to connect to the service, a user identifier of the device from a trusted entity being associated with the request. The trusted entity sends a reply to the request back to the device. This reply includes data about a uniform resource locator associated with the service and a single-use code and is sent to a contact address associated with the user identifier from the trusted entity. The device then sends a request to access a page of the service, the address of which corresponds to the data, the received single-use code being associated with the access request. Connection to the service is authorized for the service identifier associated with the user identifier from the trusted entity, when a single-use code received from a server implementing the service, in combination with a service identifier request, is valid.

Abstract: A method and apparatus for inputting at least one character by way of a user interface of an electronic device. The method includes: detecting a scrolling command performed by way of a command input element; displaying a current character in a display area by scrolling through a current set of characters, triggered by the detection of the scrolling command; detecting a selection of the current character; determining a new restricted set of characters on the basis of the current set of characters, the new set including the selected character and a selection of characters surrounding the selected character and becoming the current set of characters for a following iteration of the display of the scrolling of characters; and detecting a confirmation of the current character by way of the command input element, putting an end to the iterations.

Abstract: A method of communication between a sending device and a recipient device, comprising a step (210; 310; 410) for transmission, from the sending device to the recipient device, of a first message comprising a first service identifier relating to a first data transport service and a first data set corresponding to a configuration of said first data transport service, a step (220; 320; 420) for the sending, from the sending device to the recipient device, of a second message comprising a first protocol identifier relating to a first data transmission protocol and a second data set corresponding to a configuration of said first data transmission protocol, the first message and the second message being sent separately.

Abstract: An appliance communicates via a communication network via various communication services available for transmitting data via the communication network. The appliance can detect an anomaly in a communication that is established with the appliance via one of the communication services, and implement a defense communication mode. In the defense communication mode, the communications to be established with the appliance via a communication service for which a detection has occurred are inhibited, while the communications to be established via another communication service are allowed.
