Abstract: The subject application is directed to a system and method for document processing device status logging. Status data is first received corresponding to operations of an associated document processing device. The received status data is then stored in a suitable storage location. A determination is then made whether a predefined interval occurred. When the interval has occurred, the stored data is deleted or overwritten. When a secondary memory device is received and recognized by the document processing device, the received status data is routed to the secondary memory device, whereupon the status data remains in the storage location until such time as the predefined interval has occurred. When the secondary memory device that was received by the document processing device is not detected or recognized, operations return to awaiting the elapse of the predefined interval or the detection of a recognizable secondary memory device.

Abstract: Sensitive or confidential information is received in to a serialization library where it is associated with one or more fields. Fields into which such information is received are tagged with a type identifier representative of the sensitive or confidential nature of associated field content. Information thus tagged is then automatically encrypted with either a process associated key or a session associated key. Encrypted messages are then communicated to an associated web service or message service. Such encryption is particularly useful in automatically encrypting confidential information in XML-based systems.

Abstract: A system and method for selective sharing of restricted electronic documents. A requesting client generates query data representing a search for one or more documents stored on a document management system. The query data is then analyzed by an indexing engine and a repository containing a plurality of documents is searched. Documents meeting the query data are located and a list of the documents is returned to the requesting client. The client selects a document from the list and a determination is made whether the document is a restricted access document. When the document is restricted in access, the document management system forwards a request from the requesting client to a custodian client associated with the restricted document. The custodian client is then able to selectively allow access to the document, without the requesting client learning the identity of the custodian or the contents of the restricted document.

Abstract: A system and method for the secure recognition of network devices. The method begins with the receiving of a first communication via a first communication network. The first communication includes identification data representing a network device to be added to a selected network. In response to the identification data, a first data key associated with an initial login of the network device is transmitted and entered into the network device. The identification data entered into the network device is validated and upon validation, the network device is connected so as to enable it for initial data communication via a second network. Via the second network, the network device receives a second data key, which enables the network device for further data communication via the second network.

Abstract: This invention is directed to a system and method for the digital payment of document processing services. More particularly, this invention is directed to a system and method which uses a pre-paid or digital payment mechanism to charge for document processing services.
