  • Patent number: 8209541
    Abstract: A system and method links first and second computers of a network to implement a single sign on feature. The first computer generates a link request having a plaintext component and a hashed component. The plaintext component includes an identifier associated with the first network computer and information for locating a resource of the second network computer. The hashed component includes a first hash result formed by applying a hashing function to the plaintext component and a secret known to the first network computer and the second network computer. The second computer authenticates the link request without using a two-way encryption process by generating a second hash result by applying the hashing function to the plaintext component of the link request and the secret and comparing the first hash result with the second hash result.

  • Patent number: 7774612
    Abstract: A system and method links first and second computers of a network to implement a single signon feature. The use has a first username for accessing the first computer and a second username for accessing the second computer. The first computer generates a link request having a plaintext component including the first username and the second username and an encrypted component formed by encrypting the plaintext component using an encryption process and a secret. The link request is sent to the second computer, which validates the unencrypted information then generates an encryption result by encrypting the unencrypted information using the encryption process and a second secret known to the second computer and associated with the first network computer. The second computer compares the encryption result with the encrypted component of the incoming link request to determine whether the link request is valid.

  • Publication number: 20060106401
    Abstract: The invention concerns a method and a lens injection insert for inserting a flexible lens into a lens injection device which has a body with a receiving means and a lens injection insert which can be inserted into the receiving means, with a storage space for lens storage, wherein the storage space is defined by mutually movable side walls of the lens injection insert, by which the volume of the storage space is variable between a transport volume for transporting the lens in a transport position in which the lens is stored in the storage space in positively locking and/or force-locking relationship and a readiness volume for readying the lens in a readiness position in which the lens can be pushed out of the storage space for injection into an eye.

  • Patent number: 5954445
    Abstract: An index sheet or divider which may be accommodated by and directly printed upon by a conventional printer. The index sheet is provided with a combination of features selected from one or more perforations or foldable portions defining a guide, foldable bindable portions, hinged cutouts, removable index tab portions and the like which allow the index sheet to pass, in a guided or controlled fashion, through a printer. After the index sheet is directly printed upon, such features also allow the index sheet to be transformed, either manually or by machine, so that an index tab portion of the index sheet stands out, identifies, separates, or otherwise distinguishes documents or items with which one or more index sheets are kept.
