Patent number: 10719606Abstract: Dynamic Trust Manager (DTM) having an interface coupled to an embedded system including an Application Processor (AP), boot media, and security processor. The security processor, at a start of a boot sequence of the AP, prevents the AP from proceeding with the boot sequence, verifies bootloader code stored in the boot media via boot media access, and if the bootloader code verification is successful, allows the AP to proceed using the verified bootloader code. The security processor may also be configured to activate an interrupt request of the AP during runtime, request the AP to execute a Security Monitor Driver (SMD) of the embedded system to measure an integrity information of code/data stored in an embedded system memory, receive from the SMD the measured integrity information of code/data, and verify whether the measured integrity information equals a reference integrity information stored in an integrity table of a DTM memory.Type: GrantFiled: February 23, 2018Date of Patent: July 21, 2020Assignee: Infineon Technologies AGInventors: Oscar David Sanchez Diaz, Jurijus Cizas, Jeffrey Kelley, Mark Stafford

Patent number: 9681290Abstract: A user is enabled to change state on a mobile phone through a peripheral device, such as a vehicle or headset. The mobile phone is coupled with the peripheral device by a communication link. Contacts stored by the mobile phone are copied to the peripheral device. The contacts include contact names and corresponding dummy phone numbers. Each contact name and corresponding dummy phone number is associated with a corresponding mobile phone state. A user can interact with the peripheral device to select a contact name of the contacts as if initiating a phone call with the corresponding dummy phone number to cause the corresponding mobile phone state to be activated at the mobile phone. Examples of mobile phone state activations/changes include activating an application in the mobile phone, or activating a particular SIM (subscriber identity module) of multiple SIMs of the mobile phone.Type: GrantFiled: September 12, 2013Date of Patent: June 13, 2017Assignee: Microsoft Technology Licensing, LLCInventor: Jeffrey Kelley
