  • Patent number: 7644171
    Abstract: A method for communicating Internet Protocol data over a network, comprises providing an IPv4 data stream and providing an IPv6 data stream. An encrypted Internet Protocol communications tunnel is established through the network between a roaming mobile device and a further computing device. The IPv4 and IPv6 data streams are combined for encapsulation within and transmission through said encrypted tunnel. Continual secure communications of the encapsulated IPv4 and IPv6 data streams is maintained between said roaming mobile device and the further computing device while the roaming mobile device roams between network access points. The encapsulated, transmitted IPv4 and IPv6 data streams are received from said tunnel, and the received IPv4 and IPv6 data streams are demultiplexed.

  • Publication number: 20090268902
    Abstract: A system for and method of securely provisioning a module with cryptographic parameters, such as cryptographic keys and key tables, is presented. Such modules may be used to enable encrypted communications between mobile phones to which they are coupled. The system and method prevent a malevolent individual involved in manufacturing the modules from compromising the security of the module. In particular, the modules are provisioned by an entity different from the manufacturer.

  • Publication number: 20090204393
    Abstract: A method of processing a codec sample is provided. The method includes: removing from a first portion of the codec sample, a first number of first information bits. The first information bits are indicative of frame information associated with the codec sample. The method also includes inserting at the first portion of the codec sample from a second portion of the codec sample, a second number of data bits. The first number of the first information bits is greater than or equal to the second number of the data bits. The method also includes removing the second portion of the codec sample. The method may also include encrypting and decrypting the codec sample. In some embodiments, the codec sample is an adaptive multi-rate codec sample. In some embodiments, the adaptive multi-rate codec sample is a 5.15 mode adaptive multi-rate codec sample.

  • Patent number: 7574208
    Abstract: A seamless solution transparently addresses the characteristics of nomadic systems, and enables existing network applications to run reliably in mobile environments. A Mobility Management Server coupled to the mobile network maintains the state of each of any number of Mobile End Systems and handles the complex session management required to maintain persistent connections to the network and to other peer processes. If a Mobile End System becomes unreachable, suspends, or changes network address (e.g., due to roaming from one network interconnect to another), the Mobility Management Server maintains the connection to the associated peer task—allowing the Mobile End System to maintain a continuous connection even though it may temporarily lose contact with its network medium. An interface-based listener uses network point of attachment information supplied by a network interface to determine roaming conditions and to efficiently reestablish connection upon roaming.

  • Publication number: 20080313458
    Abstract: A method of per-packet keying for encrypting and decrypting data transferred between two or more parties, each party having knowledge of a shared key that allows a per-packet key to differ for each packet is provided. Avoiding the use of a static session key during encryption offers several advantages over existing encryption methods. For example, rejecting packets received with duplicate sequence numbers, or sequence numbers that are beyond a specified deviation range mitigates Replay Attacks.

  • Publication number: 20080313464
    Abstract: A method of encrypting broadcast and multicast data communicated between two or more parties, each party having knowledge of a shared key, is provided. The key is calculated using values, some of which are communicated between the parties, so that the shared key is not itself transferred. Avoiding the transfer of the key offers several advantages over existing encryption methods.

  • Publication number: 20030182431
    Abstract: Method and apparatus for enabling secure connectivity using standards-based Virtual Private Network (VPN) IPSEC algorithms in a mobile and intermittently connected computing environment enhance the current standards based algorithms by allowing migratory devices to automatically (re)establish security sessions as the mobile end system roams across homogeneous or heterogeneous networks while maintaining network application session. The transitions between and among networks occur seamlessly—shielding networked applications from interruptions in connectivity. The applications and/or users need not be aware of these transitions, although intervention is possible. The method does not require modification to existing network infrastructure and/or modification to networked applications.
