  • Patent number: 9397728
    Abstract: The present disclosure provides systems and methods for utilizing close proximity wireless communication (CPWC) technology for a secure out-of-band (OOB) transfer of communication information between two or more devices at close range. The communication information may be used to establish a secure communication channel over a greater distance than possible using CPWC technologies. A host device may include a processing unit in communication with a communication module and a CPWC module. An edge device may include a processing unit in communication with a communication module and a CPWC tag. The CPWC tag may receive communication information from the CPWC module of the host device. In other embodiments, the edge device may receive communication information from an intermediary transfer device. The edge device may then use the communication information to facilitate secure communication via the communication module of the edge device and the communication module of the host device.

  • Publication number: 20150289086
    Abstract: The present disclosure provides systems and methods for utilizing close proximity wireless communication (CPWC) technology for a secure out-of-band (OOB) transfer of communication information between two or more devices at close range. The communication information may then be used to establish a secure communication channel over a greater distance than possible using CPWC technologies. In various embodiments, a host device may include a processing unit in communication with a communication module and a separate CPWC module. An edge device may include a processing unit in communication with a communication module and a CPWC tag. The CPWC tag may be configured to receive communication information from the CPWC module of the host device. The edge device may then use the communication information to facilitate secure communication via the communication module of the edge device and the communication module of the host device.
