  • Patent number: 9225618
    Abstract: A network includes communication media transmitting streams to addressees, and a method includes: step of allocation of a cryptonymic identity to communication media by a first instance, the streams transmitted by a medium bearing a mark, as a function of its cryptonym, the cryptonymic identity of a medium being distinct from its real identity; step of reading and of analyzing the streams by a second instance, the analysis including a phase of identifying streams to their communication media by searching for similarity between the mark of the streams and the cryptonymic identity of the media, with the aid of a table listing the cryptonyms, and a phase of logging observable characteristics of the streams through the network. A behavior defined by a set of characteristics is declared typical or atypical by comparison with a given set of criteria, the table of cryptonymic identities having no link with the real identities.

  • Patent number: 9003178
    Abstract: A method of checking and protecting data and identities within a communication or computing process between at least one author and at least one recipient comprises at least: a step of allocation by an anonymization authority of one and the same stamp forming a cryptonymic marking, to one or to several different authors and to their objects; a step of inserting said stamp into the communication or computing protocol associated with the data stream, by means of a stamp system, the protocol containing the identity of said author or of said object of the author or authors, and each author being able moreover to simultaneously have a plurality of different cryptonyms; a step of reading, at at least one recipient, of said protocol by means of a reading system able to detect the presence of said stamp.

  • Patent number: 8959592
    Abstract: A method of securing and controlling data and identities within a communication process between an author and at least one recipient comprises at least: inserting at least one stamp in the computer or communication protocol associated with the data stream by means of a stamping system, the protocol containing the identity of the author, said stamp being a distinctive sign and a sign of recognition and a means of access to a secured account; the author using said secured account, administered by an anonymization authority, and said stamp being used to identify itself with said authority; the data stream comprising at least one instruction; at least one additional instruction having been registered with the anonymization authority and placed in the secured account; reading, at least one recipient, of said protocol by means of a reading system capable of detecting the presence of said stamp and then in extracting all or part of the additional instruction from the anonymization authority or from the secured accou

  • Publication number: 20060010430
    Abstract: The product/program and the process according to the invention make it possible to insert into an item of software in source code, in particular Java, watermarks which comply with the semantics of the program and are very difficult to detect. They make it possible to: compute a secret semantic signature of a software or hardware computer program from an infinity of possible secret semantic signatures; —mark a software or hardware computer program by inserting a visible or invisible watermark making it possible to retrieve an authenticator of the original program; retrieve the mark and extract this authenticator from the secret semantic signature of the watermarked software or hardware computer program. The secret semantic signature of the software or hardware computer program to be protected is characteristic of the semantics of said program.
