  • Publication number: 20240056310
    Abstract: An imaging device according to an embodiment includes: a pixel array section (101) that includes a plurality of pixels that are arranged in a matrix array and each generate a pixel signal corresponding to light received by exposure, and outputs image data of each of the pixel signals generated by the plurality of pixels at a frame cycle; a signature generating section (1021) that generates signature data on the basis of the image data; and an output control section (104) that controls output of the image data and the signature data, and the signature generating section generates the signature data by thinning the image data output at the frame cycle in a unit of thinning that is based on the frame cycle.

  • Publication number: 20240007295
    Abstract: An information processor of an aspect of the disclosure includes a protection section protecting first communication between a first device and a second device and second communication between a third device and the second device. The protection section executes the following (1) to (4): (1) deriving or receiving a first session key; (2) using the first session key for encryption or decryption and message authentication of the first communication; (3) using the first communication protected by the first session key to receive a second session key; and (4) using the second session key for encryption, decryption, or message authentication of the second communication. Here, the total number of times of communication or the total amount of communication data from the start of use to the end of the use of the second session key differs between the first communication and third communication between the first device and the third device.

  • Publication number: 20240007286
    Abstract: The present disclosure relates to an information processing device, a mobile device, and a communication system capable of updating a session key. A first secret is derived from a key schedule by using first communication including transmission or reception of a command for controlling second communication faster than the first communication or a response to the command, a first session key related to the first secret is derived, the first session key is used for encryption or message authentication of the first communication, a second session key is received, transmitted, or derived by using the first communication, the second session key is used for encryption or message authentication of the second communication, a third session key is received, transmitted, or derived by using the first communication, and the third session key is used instead of the second session key. The present technology can be applied to, for example, a communication system conforming to the MIPI standard.

  • Patent number: 11544967
    Abstract: The present technology is to provide an image sensor capable of enhancing the security of biometric information and lowering the risk of information leakage. An image sensor 10 includes: a biometric information acquisition unit 102 that acquires biometric information; a storage unit 14 that stores reference information to be compared with the biometric information; and a biometric authentication unit 104 that performs biometric authentication by comparing the biometric information with the reference information. The image sensor 10 further includes an encryption processing unit 105 that encrypts biometric authentication information that authenticates a living organism.
