Abstract: A device and method associates a certificate with a first recipient identity. The method comprises receiving the first recipient identity of a user. The method comprises associating the first recipient identity of the user with a second recipient identity of the user. The second recipient identity is associated with a certificate so that subsequent transmissions of data to the first recipient identity encrypts the data according to specifications of the certificate.

Abstract: A system for authentication comprises a mobile unit and a smart card reader. The mobile unit includes a security application that prevents access to functionalities and data stored thereon and further includes an authentication application that securely stores an authentication token. The smart card reader communicatively connects to a smart card. The smart card includes authentication data. The authentication application transmits the authentication token to the smart card reader to verify the smart card. The authentication application shares the authentication token with the security application when the verification is successful. The authentication token indicates to the security application to grant access to the functionalities and the data.

Abstract: A device and method identifies a certificate. The method comprises determining, by a transmitter of data, an identity of a recipient of the data. The method comprises identifying a certificate associated with the identity. The identifying includes a local search and a remote search. The method comprises encrypting the data according to the certificate prior to transmission.

Abstract: A document transfer buffer device for holding temporarily a document between an upstream document feeding device and a downstream envelope inserter has a transporting device for moving the document from the upstream document feeding device to the envelope inserter and an envelope holding device for temporarily holding the document in a holding location between the upstream document feeding device and the envelope inserter and a controlling program that selectively activates the transporting device and the temporary holding device and is responsive to the upstream feeding device and the envelope inserter possible error conditions that initiate document holding and releasing situations.
