Abstract: A travel vault includes a system and method for backing up and retrieving an encrypted data file containing user identification and credential information held in the dedicated tamperproof module of a mobile device. During backup, the encrypted data file is locked by the user with a personal identification number (PIN) and stored on a server secured by an HSM (Hardware Security Module). The user may then later retrieve and re-provision the locked, encrypted data file containing the user's identification and credentials into another dedicated tamperproof mobile device, provided the user verifies his identity by providing the PIN used to lock the file, and/or verifies his identity through an out-of-band user authentication process.

Abstract: Storing and forwarding credentials securely from one RFID device to another includes a system and method of securely storing credentials onto a tamperproof module with a Poken-like Device, and using that device in connection with a Padloc, iPhone or Smartphone in a known paired relationship to securely provide a user credentials for resources the Padloc, iPhone or Smartphone applications are attempting to access.
