  • Publication number: 20170213211
    Abstract: Techniques are disclosed relating to authenticate a user with a mobile device. In one embodiment, a computing device includes a short-range radio and a secure element. The computing device reads, via the short-range radio, a portion of credential information stored in a circuit embedded in an identification document issued by an authority to a user for establishing an identity of the user. The computing device issues, to the authority, a request to store the credential information, the request specifying the portion of the credential information. In response to an approval of the request, the computing device stores the credential information in the secure element, the credential information being usable to establish the identity of the user. In some embodiments, the identification document is a passport that includes a radio-frequency identification (RFID) circuit storing the credential information, and the request specifies a passport number read from the RFID circuit.

  • Patent number: 9430650
    Abstract: The invention relates to a method for managing non-volatile memory space in a secure processor comprising a secure non-volatile internal memory, the method comprising steps of: selecting data elements to remove from the internal memory, generating, by the secure processor, a data block comprising the selected data elements, and a signature computed from the selected data elements using a secret key generated by the secure processor, transmitting the data block by the secure processor, and storing the transmitted data block in an external memory.

  • Patent number: 9407331
    Abstract: The present invention relates to a near field communication device configured to establish a near field communication channel with an external device, and provide a first host processor with application data sent by the external device. The device is configured to provide a second host processor with notifications relating to the nature or content of application data provided to the first host processor, and configure the notifications according to a characteristic parameter of an application in the framework of which the external device sends data to the first host processor.

  • Publication number: 20150278798
    Abstract: The present invention relates to a transaction method between a secure processor and a transaction server, via a non-secure processor or a non-secure link, connected to a routing controller, the method including steps of: the controller transmitting to the secure processor, a command message sent by the non-secure processor or by the non-secure link, the controller receiving a response message sent by the secure processor, and the controller transmitting the response message to the non-secure processor or via the non-secure link, the controller analyzing the content of the response message so as to detect data of a first type therein, and removing detected data of the first type from the response message before transmitting it to the non-secure processor or via the non-secure link.
