  • Dynamic configuration for data transfer terminals
    Patent number: 12719700
    Abstract: A method may include receiving configuration data associated with an application used for secure data transfers. The method may include accessing certificate data indicating a certificate chain from a certificate service. The method may include generating a configuration script based at least in part on the configuration data and including at least a portion of the certificate data in the certificate data. The method may include generating a script hash based on at least a portion of the configuration script. The method may include receiving a validation signature for the configuration script from the certificate service. The method may include providing the configuration script, the script hash, and the validation signature to a user device may include the application used for secure data transfers such that the application is modified using the configuration script.

  • BRIDGE INTERFACE FOR SECURE ELEMENT
    Publication number: 20260189915
    Abstract: The subject system may be implemented to establish a secure session between a first device and a second device over a first protocol. Data is sent to the first device from the second device over the first protocol. The first device receives the data and emulates a second protocol to send the data to an application in a secure element in the first device. The application responds over the second protocol and the first device transmits the response over the first protocol back to the first device.
