  • Method and transmitting device for securely creating and sending an electronic message and method and receiving device for securely receiving and processing an electronic message
    Patent number: 8560844
    Abstract: The subject matter relates to a method for securely creating and sending an electronic message, whereby the message is created using a first application running in a secure operating system, the created message is stored in a storage that can only be accessed by the secure operating system and a virtualizing unit. In a second application executed by the virtualizing unit, the internal storage is analyzed for the presence of a message and, if the message is present, the message is transmitted to a receiver. The subject matter also relates to a method for securely receiving and processing an electronic message, whereby an external storage is analyzed for the presence of a message using a second application and, if the message is present, the message is transmitted to the internal storage. The presence of the message is polled using the first application and, if the message is present, the message is transmitted from the internal storage to the first application for processing.
