  • Encoding/decoding message by selectively adjusting characteristics of sub-units in image data
    Patent number: 9514504
    Abstract: A message can be encoded in an image file by mapping at least one bit of the message onto each sub-unit of the image file, and adjusting a distinguishable characteristic of each sub-unit according to the corresponding bit to produce a modified image file. The message can be decoded from the message file by comparing each sub-unit of the modified image file with a corresponding sub-unit of the original image file, and identifying at least one bit of the message based on each comparison.

  • Use of 32-bit random numbers to produce cipher key stream for 8-bit data stream
    Patent number: 9246681
    Abstract: A method of enciphering information includes generating five index values by performing modulo division on a 32-bit binary input value, identifying five 8-bit output patterns based on the five index values, and enciphering or deciphering five bytes of text using the five 8-bit output patterns.

  • Biometric authentication system and biometric sensor configured for single user authentication
    Patent number: 9111126
    Abstract: A biometric authentication system includes a biometric sensor configured for single user authentication. The biometric sensor can be configured for single user authentication through an enrollment procedure in which one or more sensing parameters are adjusted based on unique characteristics of the user. Thereafter, the user can be authenticated by capturing biometric data using the adjusted sensing parameters and comparing the captured biometric data against stored template data.
