  • Patent number: 11934537
    Abstract: A first processing device obtains a first copy of software from a repository, the first copy including first computer instructions and first data for indicating a running state of a device. A validation request is sent, which includes a seed, an algorithm identifier, a number of random numbers to generate, and a nonce. The first processing device generates the number of first random numbers using the seed and an algorithm corresponding to the algorithm identifier, and maps the first random numbers to memory blocks, each of which includes a respective first computer instruction of the first copy or the first data. A first hash is calculated from contents of the mapped memory blocks and the nonce. A second hash, calculated using information included in the validation request and a software copy on a second processing device, is received. An action is automatically performed when the hashes do not match.

  • Patent number: 11580237
    Abstract: A system for securely producing and using high-entropy security information, such as a password. The system includes a printer, a display device, and a generator computer that is connected to the printer and the display device. The generator computer generates the high-entropy set of characters, (e.g., password), and also generates a machine-readable representation of the high-entropy set of characters, (e.g., a barcode). The generator computer causes the printer to print the high-entropy set of characters and the machine-readable representation on paper, and then deletes the high-entropy set of characters and the machine-readable representation from the system. The high-entropy set of characters, (e.g., password), may be entered into a target computer by scanning the barcode on the paper using a barcode scanner connected to the target computer, which is significantly faster than, and eliminates the human error associated with, typing in a high-entropy set of characters.
