Abstract: A system and method for viewing, entering, and editing information. A system and method for entering information through biometric identifiers are described. The invention allows a user to create, edit, and store profile information including secure data and corresponding biometric identifiers. In one embodiment, the invention includes an input module for receiving a biometric input from the user; a matching module coupled to the input module for comparing the biometric input to a plurality of stored biometric identifiers; and an output module coupled to the matching module for outputting a secure data corresponding with one of the plurality of the stored biometric identifiers in response to the biometric input.

Abstract: A system and method for a context-aware switching model enabled between different access points such as web sites are described. The invention allows a user to be automatically transferred securely to another site from the current site without requiring intervention from the user, such as redundant entry of information. In another embodiment, the invention can also be utilized to switch from one application to another application. The invention also is capable of gathering context sensitive information and passing this context-sensitive information to another location. In one embodiment, the invention operates in conjunction with a secured transaction exchange, automatic population of fields, digital rights management, controlled content access, and the like. In one embodiment, context data is captured on a transaction device; the context data is stored on a storage device; and the context data is distributed from the storage device to a remote location.

Abstract: A system and method to transmit embedded content for use by a transaction device are described in detail below. In addition, authorization for use of the embedded content can be confirmed locally within the transaction device. Further, registration and payment for use of the embedded content can be performed locally within the transaction device. In one embodiment, access is requested from a secure entity. The access to the secure entity is granted if authentication information identifying a user requesting the access is provided to the secure entity. In one embodiment, embedded content is received within a transaction device; the transaction device locally verifies an authorization to use the embedded content; and the transaction device utilizes the embedded content in response to the authorization.

Abstract: A system and method to manage and control access to content and transactions for use by a transaction device are described in detail below. In addition, authorization for an account to request content or conduct transactions may be confirmed locally within the transaction device. Further, setting levels of access and account management for each account can be performed locally within the transaction device. In one embodiment, access is requested from a secure entity. The access to the secure entity is granted if authentication information identifying a user requesting the access is provided to the secure entity. In one embodiment, a control parameter is stored on a local device; content is requested from the local device; and the content is locally compared with the control parameter on the local device to determine whether requesting the content is allowed.
