  • Patent number: 11716671
    Abstract: Embodiments described herein provide an optimal communication channel recommendation engine by assessing whether the environment the customer is situated in is conducive to the channel selected by the customer. Specifically, the optimal channel recommendation engine obtains data artifacts indicative of ambient noise, motion, customer sentiment, network quality, customer focus, and/or the like to assess quality of the environment and recommend an optimal channel for the communication between the customer and the call agent. With the recommendation to switch to a different channel, the client component resumes communication with the new channel and retains the context of the interaction.

  • Publication number: 20230195912
    Abstract: A method for securing access to a data storage device (DSD), comprising: receiving, from a host connected to a data port of the DSD, a data access request to access user data stored on the DSD. In response to receiving the data access request, the DSD transmits, to the host, a Long Term Device Key (LTDK) of the DSD and a session identifier uniquely generated for the data access session. An access token is received from the host, signed by a private Long Term Host Key (LTHK) of the host. The LTHK and the LTDK form a cryptographic pair. The access token is validated using the LTDK to determine whether the host is authorized to access the DSD. In response to determining that the host is authorized to access the DSD, a data access state of the DSD is set to an unlocked state to enable access to the user data by the host via the data port, wherein the LTDK is obtained from a registration token transmitted to the DSD by the host.

  • Publication number: 20230199503
    Abstract: A method for secure wireless communication executed by at least one processor of a device. A registration certificate is transmitted to the device by a host, the registration certificate including a Long Term Device Key (LTDK) and being generated by a registration server in response to the registration of the host as authorized to connect to the device. In response to receiving a request for securing a Bluetooth connection between the device and the host, the device transmits the LTDK to the host. The device receives, from the host, a connection certificate including connection data for establishing the connection between the host and the device. The connection certificate is signed by a private Long Term Host Key (LTHK) of the host, where the LTHK of the host and the LTDK of the device form a cryptographic Long Term Key pair. The device validates the connection certificate using the LTDK of the device to determine whether the host is authorized to connect to the device.

  • Patent number: 11678293
    Abstract: A mobile device supports positioning with positioning reference signals (PRS) on multiple beam by dividing the PRS processing into two separate modes, an acquisition mode and a tracking mode. In acquisition mode, the mobile device performs a fast scan of all of the beams from a base station transmitting PRS using less than the full set of resources for the PRS, i.e., less than the full bandwidth and/or less than the full number of repetitions of the PRS. The mobile device may select the best beams to use for positioning, e.g., based on signal strength metric. In tracking mode, the mobile device tracks the PRS from only the selected beams using the full set of resources for the PRS. The mobile device may return to acquisition mode after a predetermined number of positioning occasions or if the selected beams are no longer valid due to movement or change in conditions.
