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.

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.

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.
