Abstract: Systems, methods and software merge a Virtual World, Live Event and Entertainment Channel, thus creating “The Perfect Storm” of gaming and entertainment whereby the characters of a social network game (e.g., an online fantasy sports league) are represented by human beings who register to be avatars of characters supported by a “Character Service Center,” while players compete to bring avatars to life in a Real World event (e.g., a Real World sports league), where the human beings behind the avatars compete for prizes while staying in character, as these competitors and players are incentivized by a “Collaboration Incentive Platform.

Abstract: In a wireless network, a primary synchronization signal and a secondary synchronization signal are sent at a predetermined bandwidth in a transmission. The predetermined bandwidth is a lowest operating bandwidth of the wireless network. Data is also sent in the transmission using an operating bandwidth greater than the lowest operating bandwidth.

Abstract: Systems, methods, and software technology for managing keys used to encrypt data at-rest and decrypt the data when serving requests for the data. In an implementation, a data service receives a request for data that has been encrypted at rest using a data key, wherein the data key has been encrypted using a policy key, and wherein the policy key has been encrypted using a root key. When the root key is unavailable, the data service requests a key service to decrypt the policy key using an alternative root key. When the data service receives the policy key in an unencrypted state from the key service, it decrypts the data key using the policy key and decrypts the data using the data key.
