  • Patent number: 11128650
    Abstract: By extending a Basic-CAN controller and/or a Full-CAN controller with a RX filter device, it is possible to compare the CAN identifiers intended for transmission for the CAN controller with those of the received CAN frames. In the case of a match, an interrupt is generated. When no hardware expansion is intended, the RX-FIFO or TX-FIFO of a Full-CAN controller is used for detecting an intrusion.

  • Patent number: 11068569
    Abstract: A new approach is proposed that contemplates systems and methods to support human activity tracking and authenticity verification of human-originated digital assets. First, activities performed by a producer while he/she is constructing a digital asset, e.g., an electronic message, are captured. Information/metadata of the captured activities are then packaged/encapsulated inside the constructed digital asset, wherein such metadata includes but is not limited to mouse and/or keyboard activities, software tools used, and other digital traces of the captured human activities. Once the digital asset is transmitted and received by a consumer, the metadata included in the digital asset is unpacked and analyzed to determine various levels of authenticity of the digital asset with respect to whether the digital asset is originated manually by a human being or automatically by a software program. The consumer may then take actions accordingly based on the level of authenticity of the received digital asset.

  • Patent number: 11057363
    Abstract: Technologies related to trusted user account login are disclosed. In one implementation, a temporary trusted login token request for accessing a service page from an originating application is received. A temporary trusted login token based on the temporary trusted login token request is generated. The temporary trusted login token is sent to the originating application. A service page access request is received for accessing the service page generated based on the temporary trusted login token. The temporary trusted login token including the service authorization from the service page access request is identified. Whether the service page is included in the one or more service pages that are identified by the service authorization is determined, and trusted login to the service page from the originating application is allowed if the service page is included in the one or more service pages.

  • Patent number: 11050728
    Abstract: An information processing apparatus includes a synchronization unit performing a process of time-of-day synchronization with a time-of-day synchronization server, and an authentication unit performing authentication by a first authentication method. In a case where the authentication by the first authentication method fails and the process of time-of-day synchronization is not performed within a set period of time, the authentication unit performs the authentication by a second authentication method. Thus, it is possible to improve convenience of the information processing apparatus.

  • Patent number: 11032326
    Abstract: A device may determine whether a mobile device is associated with a first identifier that is associated with a first mobile network based on determining that a second identifier associated with the mobile device is associated with a second mobile network. The first identifier may provide authorization for the mobile device to a private network associated with the first mobile network. The device may transmit, based on determining that the mobile device is associated with the first identifier, a security challenge to the mobile device. The device may determine, based on receiving a response to the security challenge from the mobile device, whether the response to the security challenge satisfies the security challenge. The device may provide, based on determining that the response to the security challenge satisfies the security challenge, the mobile device with access to the private network.
