Patent number: 9848288Abstract: The system provides secure controlled access to multiple Bluetooth devices issued to users. For example an officer may be issued a weapon. To enable monitoring of weapon status, a Bluetooth sensor may be fitted to a holster and the Officer issued with a Bluetooth enabled mobile phone. In order to establish a secure Bluetooth connection between the devices, sensor contains a restored link key and the mobile phone stores a partial link key. The supervisor enters their username and password, and a secret key into the phone which is then used with the partial link key to generate a copy of the link key stored in the first device, so that a secure connection can be established with the first device. The officer enters their username and password into the sensor, and once the secure connection is established it is sent over the secure connection to the mobile phone which then sends both user names and passwords to a verification authority.Type: GrantFiled: September 14, 2016Date of Patent: December 19, 2017Assignee: Certis Cisco Security PTE LTDInventors: Poh Beng Tan, Martin James Baptist, Keen Hon Wong, Honching Lui, Xiang Li

Patent number: 9479514Abstract: A system for securely controlling access between two wireless (i.e. Bluetooth-enabled) apparatuses, also comprising a supervisor apparatus. The first apparatus is paired to the second by establishing a secure wireless (i.e. Bluetooth) link. The first apparatus includes a stored partial link key and a link key generator: The first apparatus receives a first secret key from the apparatus user, and may also receive a second secret key from the supervisor apparatus. The link key generator generates either a first link key based upon a stored first partial link key, the first secret key and the second secret key or a second link key based upon the stored first partial link key and the first secret key. An access control module in the second apparatus determines the level of access that the first apparatus is granted based upon the link key used to establish the secure connection—full/restricted access.Type: GrantFiled: March 18, 2014Date of Patent: October 25, 2016Assignee: Certis Cisco Security PTE LTD.Inventors: Poh Beng Tan, Martin James Baptist, Keen Hon Wong, Honching Lui, Xiang Li

Publication number: 20130038448Abstract: An access control system is disclosed comprising a credential reader arranged to gather at least one credential from a person desiring to pass through an access point associated with the access control system, the system being arranged to use the at least one credential to provide an indication about the identity of the person. The system also comprises at least one access control device controlling access through a respective access point such that a person is allowed or denied access dependent on whether the person is positively identified, and a data storage device that stores data indicative of a current security level applicable for each access point associated with the system, the security level defining the criteria required to provide a positive identification of the person. Stored security level data can be modified to change the criteria required for positively identifying a person.Type: ApplicationFiled: May 25, 2012Publication date: February 14, 2013Applicant: CERTIS CISCO SECURITY PTE LTDInventors: Kai Yew Paul Chong, Joon Keng Yong, Honching Lui, Liang Cheng Wang
