Abstract: A method includes initializing a client state on a client device be executing a private batched sum retrieval instruction to compute c sums O of data blocks from an untrusted storage device. Each computed sum O stored on memory hardware of the client device and including a sum of a corresponding subset S of exactly k data blocks. The method also includes a query instruction to retrieve a query block Bq stored on the untrusted storage device by iterating through each of the c sums O of data blocks to identify one of the c sums O that does not include the query block Bq, instructing a service to pseudorandomly partition the untrusted storage device into partitions and sum the data blocks in each partition to determine a corresponding encrypted data block sum.

Abstract: Systems and methods are described for enrolling a user device in a Unified Endpoint Management (“UEM”) system over a closed network. After an initial boot or factory reset of a user device, a user can scan a Quick Response code, or other scannable code, that is embedded with enrollment configuration data that includes configuration settings for communicating with a UEM server in the UEM system. Using the enrollment configuration data, the user device can retrieve an installation file for a management application. The user device can install the management application and give the management application access to the enrollment configuration data. The management application can disable hardcoded open network endpoints on the user device and configure the user device for UEM communications on the closed network. The user device can connect to the UEM server over the closed network and request enrollment in the UEM system.

Abstract: Systems and methods for performing fund transfers at an automated teller machine (ATM) are disclosed. The systems and methods include using authentication transaction keys to enable a transferee device to facilitate an ATM withdrawal. The fund transfer is based on pre-defined ATM transaction parameters, which include an amount of funds for the transaction and a geographic limitation for an ATM at which the transaction may occur. Funds can be transferred in response to authentication of the authentication transaction key and confirmation that the ATM corresponds to the geographic limitation for the ATM.
