  • Patent number: 9608974
    Abstract: Approaches are described for automatically generating new security credentials, such as security tokens, which can involve automatically re-authenticating a user (or client device) using a previous security token issued to that user (or device). The re-authentication can happen without any knowledge and/or action on the part of the user. The re-authentication mechanism can invalidate and/or keep track of the previous security token, such that when a subsequent request is received that includes the previous security token, the new security token can be invalidated, and the user caused to re-authenticate, as receiving more than one request with the previous security token can be indicative that the user's token might have been stolen.

  • Publication number: 20070041529
    Abstract: A method synchronous parallel transmission of digital signals over a telephone line is disclosed. The method includes the steps of generating a synchronization signal having at least two frequencies (6 and 7), simultaneously generating data signals having at least two separate frequencies from the digital signals, converting the synchronization signal and the data signals into audio signals having frequencies corresponding to frequencies of the synchronization signal and the data signals to be transmitted over the telephone line and transmitting at least three frequencies of the audio signals simultaneously over the telephone line.
