  • Patent number: 10956618
    Abstract: An ID token includes a sensor, a communication interface, and a first microcontroller. The ID token includes a protected second microcontroller having at least one microcontroller communication interface, which is arranged in a holder of the ID token, wherein the microcontroller communication interface provides a data input and a data output. The first microcontroller is configured as a proxy for switching between the sensing of the measurement data by the sensor and forwarding of the sensed measurement data from the sensor to the first application of the protected second microcontroller by the microcontroller communication interface thereof on the one hand and forwarding of notifications for establishing a connection between the second application and the reading device and/or forwarding of APDUs by the connection between the second application and the reading device on the other hand.

  • Patent number: 10664737
    Abstract: The mechanically stable value or security document 2000 according to the invention comprising an electric circuit 1270 is characterised by the following features: the document is formed of at least three document layers which are arranged in a stack 1700 and which are connected together face-to-face by a joining method, wherein a first document layer is formed by a circuit carrier layer 1200 which supports the electric circuit 1270, at least one second document layer is formed in each case by a compensation layer 1100 which has at least one opening 1120 and/or recess, and at least one third document layer is formed in each case by an outer cover layer 1300. The first 1200, the at least one second 1100, and the at least one third document layer 1300 are formed from a fibre composite material.

  • Publication number: 20180349647
    Abstract: The invention relates to an ID token, comprising a sensor (70, 72), a communication interface (30), and a first microcontroller (40), wherein the ID token (10) comprises a protected second microcontroller (50) having at least one microcontroller communication interface (59), which is arranged in a holder (60) of the ID token (10), wherein the microcontroller communication interface (59) provides a data input and a data output, wherein the first microcontroller (40) is configured as a proxy for switching between the sensing of the measurement data by the sensor (70, 72) and forwarding of the sensed measurement data from the sensor (70, 72) to the first application (56) of the protected second microcontroller (50) by means of the microcontroller communication interface (59) thereof on the one hand and forwarding of notifications for establishing a connection between the second application (58) and the reading device (20) and/or forwarding of APDUs by means of the connection between the second application (58) a

  • Patent number: 9413753
    Abstract: A method is provided for generating a soft token by which attributes of a user may be authenticated. A request to generate the soft token is transmitted from an electronic device of the user to a service provider computer via a first secure connection. After receiving the request, the service computer generates a one-time password, records the password as a session identifier, and transmits the password to the electronic device. The password is output by the electronic device via a user interface. The user enters the password into a user computer system, from where it is transmitted, via a second secure connection, to the service computer system. If the recorded password agrees with the received password, one or more attributes are read from an ID token of the user and a corresponding soft token is generated and transmitted to the electronic device or user computer system.
