  • Patent number: 11941605
    Abstract: The invention relates to an electronic transaction method. The method comprises carrying out an initiation communication between a terminal device and a mobile device, and carrying out an electronic transaction on the basis of the initiation communication between the terminal device and the mobile device. The initiation communication between the terminal device and the mobile device is a unidirectional communication in which initiation data is transmitted from the terminal device to the mobile device. The invention furthermore relates to a terminal device for use in an electronic transaction method, and to a transaction application for a mobile device for use in an electronic transaction method.

  • Patent number: 7555617
    Abstract: An electronic data processing device includes a data processing member provided for controlling, based on first and second encoded data, a secured operation initiated by a user, a memory which is configurable in order to delimit at least one secured memory part within that memory, to each secured memory parts there being assigned a dedicated address range. The data processing member includes N (N?2) processing units of which M (M?N?1) processing units are provided to process the secured operation and at least one of the remaining N-M processing units is provided for processing application data, to each of the M processing units there is assigned at least one of the secured memory parts via of a configuration element controlled by a selected one of the M processing units. The second memory is provided with a memory access controller provided for controlling access to the second memory.

  • Patent number: 7330135
    Abstract: A method and a device for reading out keys of a keyboard. The read-out is realised by randomly generating a scanning pattern comprising for each row and column a read-out value to be applied on the rows and columns. The scanning pattern is preferably changed after having been applied to the keys. After application of the randomly generated pattern, the verification routine is applied in order to identify the selected keys.
