  • Publication number: 20230208619
    Abstract: The present system and method allow the exchange of messages, such as email, between a sender and a recipient while maintaining the data secure and the integrity of the content of the messages. The method and system do not require a user having an account to open a received message. The method comprises the server creating a new communication key upon reception of a request. The communication key is typically valid for a single request to ensure that each request is encrypted using different communication keys. The method typically comprises a client [A] establishing communication on [HANDSHAKE] with one or more servers [B]. The HANDSHAKE generally aims at initializing the encryption key that will be used to exchange information between A and B.

  • Patent number: 11407881
    Abstract: The invention relates to a process for the preparation of a novel precipitated silica, wherein: a silicate is reacted with an acidifying agent, so as to obtain a silica suspension; said silica suspension is filtered, so as to obtain a filter cake; said filter cake is subjected to a liquefaction operation, optionally in the presence of an aluminium compound; wherein at least one polycarboxylic acid is added to the filter cake, during or after the liquefaction operation. It also relates to a novel precipitated silica and to its uses.
