  • Patent number: 10496814
    Abstract: This disclosure relates to systems and methods generating and distributing protected software applications. In certain embodiments, integrity checking mechanisms may be implemented using integrity checking code in software code prior to compilation into machine code. Following compilation and execution of the application, the introduced code may check the integrity of the application by determining whether the application behaves and/or otherwise functions as expected. By introducing integrity checking in this manner, integrity checking techniques may be injected into the application prior to compilation into machine code and/or independent of the particular manner in which the application is compiled.

  • Publication number: 20190362055
    Abstract: This disclosure relates to systems and methods for managing protected electronic content that employ relatively efficient messaging schemes. Rights management architectures are described that may, among other things, provide end-to-end protection of content keys from their point of origination at a content creator and/or content service to end user devices. Certain embodiments may further provide for message protocols where fewer messages are sent in connection with a protected content license request process, thereby reducing latency associated with license request and provisioning processes.

  • Publication number: 20190363883
    Abstract: This disclosure relates to systems and methods for managing protected electronic content using proxy reencryption techniques. Rights management architectures are described that may, among other things, provide end-to-end protection of content keys from their point of origination at a content creator and/or content service to end user devices. Proxy reencryption techniques consistent with aspects of the disclosed embodiments may enable transformation of a ciphertext under one public key to a ciphertext containing the same plaintext under another public key. Consistent with embodiments disclosed herein, proxy reencryption processes may be implemented using indistinguishability obfuscation and puncturable public-key encryption schemes, functional encryption, and/or white box obfuscation techniques.

  • Publication number: 20190363882
    Abstract: The disclosure relates to, among other things, systems and methods for facilitating the secure recording of assertions made by entities tied to identities. Embodiments of the disclosed systems and methods may allow users to make non-revocable, difficult to forge, cryptographic assertions tied to their identities through the posting of entries in an immutable ledger. In certain embodiments, a user's cryptographic assertions may be preceded by ledger entries which feature certificates from trusted authorities that tie the keys used for making assertions to the user's identity. Further embodiments provide for a mechanism for disabling further entries posted under a user's key, either automatically or at the user's initiation.

  • Publication number: 20190364021
    Abstract: Systems and methods are described that use cryptographic techniques to improve the security of applications executing in a potentially untrusted environment associated with a software application. Embodiments of the disclosed systems and methods may, among other things, facilitate cryptographic operations within an execution environment associated with browser software of a client system while maintaining security of cryptographic keys imported into the environment. As the security of keys is maintained in an execution environment implementing embodiments of the disclosed systems and methods, users and/or systems may be more willing to consign their keys for use in connection with cryptographic operations performed in such environments.

  • Patent number: 10423764
    Abstract: Systems, methods, software, and apparatus are described for facilitating the distribution and management of fragmented content. In one embodiment, a packager packages content into fragments and generates a manifest including policies and metadata associated with the content. A downloader obtains the manifest, and uses it to obtain the content from one or more uploaders. For example, a downloader might forward a search request to one or more trackers, which, in turn, are operable to locate one or more uploaders that can meet the request, subject to any relevant policy limitations. The uploaders forward fragments to the downloader, subject to any relevant policy. The downloader assembles the content from the fragments. The operations and interactions of the entities can be subject to policy limitations associated with the fragments, the content as a whole, or the like.

  • Patent number: 10412071
    Abstract: Systems and methods are described that use tag authentication and presence verification techniques in connection with a variety of transactions. In certain embodiments, an authentication device may verify the authenticity of a secure tag by determining whether the secure tag stores secret information provisioned by a trusted authority. In some embodiments, such an authentication process may be performed without exposing the secret information to the authentication device, thereby maintaining integrity of the secure tag. In other embodiments, insecure tags and/or tags that do not include secret information are used.
