  • Patent number: 11177934
    Abstract: A computing device comprises a network element configured for receiving messages sent over a network from a control facility, a reduced instruction set computer processing circuitry comprising a central processing unit (CPU) and a secure hardware-implemented module adapted to verify that a signed PKI message is encoded in the received messages at a plurality of sequential intervals and to either switch the CPU from an operational state to a safe state, or prevent switching of the CPU from the safe state to the operational state, when a receipt of a signed PKI message is not verified in one of the sequential intervals. In the operational state, the CPU accesses a memory address space in the processing circuitry for executing software-based commands. In the safe state the CPU is prevented from executing the software-based commands while access to the memory address space is retained.

  • Patent number: 10997302
    Abstract: A computer implemented method of authenticating a user accessing a secure terminal, comprising obtaining identification information stored in a personal machine readable storage medium exclusively associated with an accessing user attempting to access a secure system, retrieving authentication information exclusively associated with the accessing user from a remote network resource using the identification information, operating one or more privately directed user interfaces to exclusively present to the accessing user a requested alteration to a challenge request generated based on the authentication information and presented via another user interface, receiving a response to the challenge request from the accessing user and granting the accessing user access to the secure terminal in case the response matches the altered challenge request and denying access in case of no match.

  • Patent number: 10878067
    Abstract: A computer implemented method of correlating between detected access events to access client terminals in a monitored location and physical activity of people in the monitored location, comprising detecting one or more access events to access one or more of a plurality of client terminals located in a monitored location and operatively connected to a first network, obtaining sensory activity data from one or more activity detectors deployed in the monitored location to capture physical activity of people in the monitored location wherein the activity detector(s) are operatively connected to a second interconnection isolated from the first network, analyzing the sensory activity data to identify a spatiotemporal activity pattern of one or more persons in the monitored location, correlating between the access event(s) and the spatiotemporal activity pattern(s) to validate the access event(s) and initiating one or more actions according to the validation.
