Abstract: A method for the confidential verification of an electronic identity includes applying block chain. The method allows an acting party to recognize a block-chain identity while at the same time a level of confidentiality of the respective identity and its identity attributes is maintained. A correspondingly adapted identity system and a computer program product with control commands are arranged to implement the method and/or operate the proposed system arrangement.

Abstract: The present invention relates to a method for making available a security key, wherein a smart card adapted according to the invention is employed for the production thereof. In this case, an expedient method sequence is proposed which makes it possible for the smart card to make available, for example, a so-called one-time password or a dynamic check number in interaction with a token server. The present invention further relates to a correspondingly adapted computing arrangement and to a computer program product with control commands which implement the method and/or operate the computing arrangement.

Abstract: The invention relates to a method for carrying out a two-factor authentication between a client and a relying party, wherein, as the second factor, a data carrier is employed which carries out a communication with a token server.

Abstract: A method is provided for carrying out a cryptographically secured authentication which complies with the Universal Authentication Framework (UAF) of the FIDO Alliance. It is thus possible to employ an existing infrastructure of the FIDO Alliance and the method can be embedded into the infrastructure using standard interfaces.

Abstract: The invention provides a system for encryptedly storing product data of a product having an attached tag centrally on a product data server, and reading out the centrally stored product data by production stations which are to process the product. The product data are encrypted with a document key which in turn is encrypted with a public key of the tag. The tag contains access information for the centrally stored product data. When a production station accesses product data on the product data server, the tag carries out a re-encryption of the document key from the key system of the tag to that of the accessing production station.

Amlodipine, anipamil, barnidipine, benidipine, bepridil, darodipine, diltiazem, efonidipine, felodipine, isradipine, lacidipine, lercanidipine, lidoflazine, manidipine, mepirodipine, nicardipine, nifedipine, niludipine, nilvadipine, nimodipine, nisoldipine, nitrendipine, perhexiline, tiapamil, verapamil and pharmaceutically acceptable salts thereof, are suitable calcium channel blockers.

Abstract: The 8-speed transmission which comprises an input shaft (AN), an output shaft (AB), four planetary gearsets (RS1, RS2, RS3, RS4), eight rotary shafts (1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8), and five shifting elements (A, B, C, D, E). The input shaft is directly connected to the fourth planetary gear set while the output shaft is directly connected to the third planetary gear. A third shaft directly connects one element of the first planetary gear set with one element of the fourth planetary gear set. A fifth shaft directly connects one element of the second planetary gear set with one element of the third planetary gear set. A sixth shaft directly connects one element of the first planetary gear set with one element of the third planetary gear set. A seventh shaft directly connects one element of the fourth planetary gear set with one element of the fifth shifting element.

Abstract: A vehicle multi-speed automatic transmission which comprises an input shaft (AN) and an output shaft (AB); first, second, third and fourth planetary gear sets (RS1, RS2, RS3, RS4); at least third, fourth, fifth, sixth, seventh and eighth rotatable shafts (3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8); and first, second, third, fourth and fifth shifting elements (A, B, C, D, E) whose selective engagement, in combinations of three engaged shifting elements, defines different gear ratios, between the input shaft (AN) and the output shaft (AB), for implementing eight forward gears and at least one reverse gear. When shifting from one forward gear into a successive higher or lower forward gear, only a single one of the first, the second, the third, the fourth and the fifth shift elements is disengaged and only a single one of the first, the second, the third, the fourth and the fifth shift elements is engaged.

Abstract: Bethanechol, diltiazem, or a combination thereof is administered locally to the anus for the treatment of benign anal disorders, in particular anal fissures and hemorrhoids. The agents induce a reduction in the mean and resting pressure, thereby assisting in the healing of the anal fissures and hemorrhoids.
