  • Patent number: 11574245
    Abstract: A system configured to perform decision tasks carried out by a machine learning engine operates with a machine learning model, and includes a training component for improving the machine learning model, a device for carrying out decisions based on a set of input data, and an interaction interface for switching the machine learning model between training component and a device that includes a model attestation checker. The device performs acquiring input data, and ascertaining at least one machine learning model over the interaction interface. The model attestation checker performs checking if said machine learning model is trusted by a model attestation, and considering, for decision making, only those machine learning models that are trusted. The machine learning engine performs carrying out the decision task for input data by using a trusted machine learning model, and providing a result attestation for the decision output.

  • Patent number: 10601587
    Abstract: A method for establishing a first secured communication channel between an administrative agent in a device and a distant server, the device comprising a secure element communicating with the administrative agent, the secure element being administrated through the administrative agent by the distant server, the administrative agent being administrated by a third party server through a second secured communication channel, the distant server and the third party server being connected through a third secured channel. The third party server requests, from the distant server, an operation on the secure element and a one-time PSK. The distant server sends, to the third party server, the one-time PSK. The third party server sends, to the administrative agent, a triggering message including the one-time PSK. A TLS-PSK handshake is performed between the administrative agent and the distant server with the one-time PSK to establish the first secured communication channel.

  • Patent number: 9872167
    Abstract: The invention is a method for managing communication between a secure element and a device. The secure element comprises a physical communication interface and first and second virtual profiles. It is configured to exchange data targeting the virtual profiles with the device through the physical communication interface. The method comprises the steps of: running simultaneously said first and second virtual profiles, demultiplex incoming data received through the physical communication interface and multiplex outgoing data sent through the physical communication interface, resetting one of said virtual profiles individually without affecting the other virtual profiles in response to receiving a specific signal sent by the device through the physical communication interface.

  • Patent number: 9615244
    Abstract: A first device stores a subscription manager and at least two subscriptions. A first subscription is active and a second subscription is non-active. A second device sends a request for switching to the second subscription. The subscription manager sets a first variable relating to a next active subscription to the second subscription. The subscription manager sends to the first device a message requesting the first device to re-launch an execution of the subscription manager and to read data. The first device sends to the subscription manager a message including a command for re-launching an execution of the subscription manager. The subscription manager de-activates, based upon the first variable value, the first subscription. The subscription manager activates, based upon the first variable value, the second subscription, and sends to the first device operating system data relating to the second subscription, as a current active subscription.

  • Patent number: 9148783
    Abstract: A method of managing data in an electronic token includes an initial step of storing a first data into the electronic token and into a secured site. Secret data, intended to be initialized in the electronic token, is identified. Instructions and a subset of the first data are also identified, wherein the subset allows the secret data to be rebuilt by applying the instructions. A reference identifying the subset is sent to the electronic token. In the electronic token, the secret data is rebuilt from the first data and the reference by applying the instructions.

  • Patent number: 9032121
    Abstract: The invention is a method of analyzing the wear of a non volatile memory embedded in a secure electronic token. A set of events are intended to generate writing and/or erasing operations in said memory. The token comprises a buffer. The method comprises the following steps: each time an event belonging to said set occurs, generating a data which reflects the event and storing said data in the buffer, sending the buffer to a remote machine, analyzing the buffer to determine the wear of the memory.

  • Patent number: 8793340
    Abstract: A first user of a first communicating object shares personal data in response to a request from a second user. The shared data are associated with a reference of the second user in the first communicating object and are transmitted to the second communicating object in order to be recorded therein in association with a reference of the first user. The first user controls the shared personal data from the first communicating object by transmitting a control instruction to the second communicating object. The instruction contains at least the reference of the first user in order to find the personal data of the first user in association with the reference in the second communicating object, and to treat the personal data according to the transmitted control instruction.
