  • Patent number: 10793111
    Abstract: The invention proposes a method for the remote control of a locking equipment (2) for a vehicle (20) via a mobile terminal (1) comprising data processing means (11) configured to implement a given cryptographic function and biometric acquisition means (14), the mobile terminal (1) being connected to the locking equipment (2) and to a server (3) via a network (10), the method being characterized in that it comprises the implementation of steps of: (a) Issuing, from the terminal (1) to the server (3), an authentication request to the locking equipment (2); (b) Acquiring a candidate biometric datum by the acquisition means (14); (c) Verifying, by data processing means (31) of the server (3) or the data processing means (11) of the terminal (1), that the candidate biometric datum matches with a reference biometric datum; (d) Transmitting, to the mobile terminal (1) from the server (3), an encrypted form of a virtual key of the locking equipment (2); (e) Authenticating the mobile terminal (1) to the locking equ

  • Publication number: 20190305945
    Abstract: The present invention relates to a method for implementing a cryptographic function for a secret key, the method being characterized in that it comprises the implementation, by data processing means (11) of an equipment (1), of steps consisting in: (b) Constructing a unique sequence of cryptographic macro-instructions, representing said cryptographic function for said secret key, based on: a generic list of cryptographic macro-instructions executable by a given virtual machine; and an individual file of data describing said sequence; (c) Executing, by said virtual machine, said unique sequence of cryptographic macro-instructions.
