Abstract: A communication system, comprising a first apparatus and a second apparatus. A processing entity of the first apparatus is configured for: obtaining a first bit stream; subdividing it into a plurality of N-bit input segments; for each of the input segments, determining an input index as a value represented by the N bits of a particular input segment, determining an output index based on the input index and a mapping between 2N possible input indexes and 2N possible output indexes, and setting bits of a corresponding N-bit output segment so as to represent the value of the output index; and causing transmission of a second bit stream formed using each corresponding first output segment to the second apparatus, where a similar operation is performed to recover the N-bit first input segments.

Abstract: A robust header compression (ROHC) controller provides for service flow processing of a ROHC channel in a WiMAX wireless communication system. The ROHC controller controls the negotiations of the MS ROHC capabilities during its registration and the negotiations of the ROHC channel parameters during ROHC enabled service flow setup; the MS ROHC capabilities including ROHC compression and decompression capabilities and ROHC channel and feedback strategies; the channel parameter negotiation covers the ROHC profile set and feedback channel information in addition to the 16e/12D standard. The ROHC controller receives a service flow request for a ROHC enabled service flow, wherein the request includes a QoS profile.

Abstract: Method and system for secure access from a security device at a local network location to a remote network location are disclosed. At the security device having a unique identifier (UID), processor, and memory, a security software is obtained from a remote network location, the security software obtaining a personal identification number (PIN) of a user, and the UID of the security device. The PIN, the UID and the private security software are forwarded to the remote network location for generating a credential code, including encrypting the credential code. At the security device, the credential code is obtained from the remote network location, and authenticity of the PIN and the UID is verified, without communicating over a network, including decrypting the credential code. Upon verifying the authenticity of the PIN and the UID, access credentials to the remote network location are retrieved.

Abstract: Methods and systems for authenticating a security device for establishing trusted email communication. The security device is authenticated by installing private security software on the security device. In order to authorize an email transaction, a transaction authorization is performed using the security device by display a QR (Quick Response) code from an authorization server on a user terminal and scanning the QR code into the security device. After scanning the QR code, an OTA (One-Time-Authorization) code is sent from the security device to the authorization server for verifying the transaction. Embodiments of the present invention provide trusted email communication. A corresponding system for authenticating a security device and preforming trusted email communication is also provided.

A Two-Channel authorization method includes a transaction notification/authorization channel and a transaction channel. A Three-Channel authorization method includes a transaction notification channel, a transaction authorization channel, and the transaction channel. Embodiments of the present invention provide increased security and privacy. A corresponding system for authenticating a security device and preforming secure private transactions is also provided.

Abstract: A method and system for automatically generating a new password from user selected characters via key press which are different from the user selected characters. Each key of a keypad can be entered within one or more contexts, manually selected by the user or automatically selected by the described system, such that the same key press within one context provides a unique code different than the same key press within another context. The code corresponding to the proper combination of a key press, the contexts of the selected key press, and the sequence of entry must match the previously stored code set by the user. Context selection is not based on any of the possible key presses selectable on the keypad. Therefore if the password characters are discovered without the context for each character, then it becomes difficult to access the content. The newly generated password can be the same length as the originally entered password, or can be longer or shorter in length than the originally entered password.

Abstract: Methods for authenticating a security device at a local network location for providing a secure access from the local network location to a remote network location are provided. A security device is registered by installing private security software on the security device that generates an asymmetrical encryption key pair including an encryption key and a decryption key. The encryption key is stored only on the security device and the decryption key is stored only on a remote server. Embodiments of the present invention provide increased security by not storing the encryption key on the remote server so that attackers stealing data from the server cannot pretend to a user having the registered security device. A corresponding system for authenticating a security device is also provided.
