Publication number: 20210067315Abstract: This disclosure relates to systems and methods for performing cryptographic operations in connection with the management of electronic content using multiple license services. In some circumstances, a content service may not wish to share unencrypted content keys with a single license service for a variety of security reasons. Embodiments of the disclosed systems and methods may use multi-party cryptographic methods in connection with the management of protected content keys and/or associated licenses and/or the distribution of content keys and/or licenses to authorized users and/or devices. In various embodiments, a content service may split a content key into a plurality of key shares and may transmit the key shares to a plurality of different license services. The license services may coordinate operations to generate a protected content key without revealing unencrypted content key to any of the participating license services.Type: ApplicationFiled: August 27, 2020Publication date: March 4, 2021Applicant: Intertrust Technologies CorporationInventors: Stephen G.

Publication number: 20210034736Abstract: The disclosure relates to systems and methods for managing state using relatively small assistance from protected hardware. Obfuscated code segments may communicate with supporting protected hardware, store encrypted state values in main memory, and/or communicate via secure channels to secure platform hardware components. In various embodiments, consistent state may be achieved, at least in part, by computing secure tag information and storing the secure tag information in a secure and/or otherwise protected device register. Consistent with embodiments disclosed herein, the tag information may be used to derive keys used to encrypt and/or decrypt stored state information. Tag information may further be used in connection with verification operations prior to using the information to derive associated keys.Type: ApplicationFiled: July 29, 2020Publication date: February 4, 2021Applicant: Intertrust Technologies CorporationInventor: Stephen G.

Publication number: 20210029483Abstract: Systems and method are disclosed for facilitating efficient calibration of filters for correcting room and/or speaker-based distortion and/or binaural imbalances in audio reproduction, and/or for producing three-dimensional sound in stereo system environments. According to some embodiments, using a portable device such as a smartphone or tablet, a user can calibrate speakers by initiating playback of a test signal, detecting playback of the test signal with the portable device's microphone, and repeating this process for a number of speakers and/or device positions (e.g., next to each of the user's ears). A comparison can be made between the test signal and the detected signal, and this can be used to more precisely calibrate rendering of future signals by the speakers.Type: ApplicationFiled: October 9, 2020Publication date: January 28, 2021Applicant: Intertrust Technologies CorporationInventors: David P.
