Publication number: 20240192380Abstract: A pay television satellite broadcast includes validation data that can be used to validate authenticity of live global positioning system (GPS) data. The validation data may be included within entitlement messages and encrypted for security and selective reception by authorized receivers. A navigation system may compute checksums of received live GPS data and compare with the validation data for a match. A decision about whether or not to use the live GPS data may be taken based on whether or not the computed checksums match the validation data received via the pay television satellite broadcast signals.Type: ApplicationFiled: December 28, 2023Publication date: June 13, 2024Applicant: OpenTV, Inc.Inventors: Scott Jantz, Nir Livay

Patent number: 11039189Abstract: The present invention relates to the domain of control of access to audiovisual content transmitted to a receiver, in particular control based on the localization of the receiver. This invention proposes a method of control of access to content transmitted to a receiver, said receiver being part of an access geographic control system comprising verification means and security means, the method comprising the following steps: acquisition of a current localization by a portable device, transfer of the current localization to the verification means, extraction, in a memory of the verification means, of a localization data set defining at least one area, verification, by the verification means, that the current localization is included in said area, and if so, transmission of an authorization message for the reception of the audiovisual content to the security means relative to the receiver.Type: GrantFiled: November 29, 2019Date of Patent: June 15, 2021Assignee: NAGRAVISION S.A.Inventors: David Servignat, Jose-Emmanuel Pont, Frederic Thomas, Scott Jantz, Nir Livay

Patent number: 10984091Abstract: Disclosed herein are methods and systems for validating an autonomous system that comprises a static-code module and a dynamic-code module, the method including the steps of performing a code-integrity-validation process on the static-code module and performing a behavior-integrity-validation process on the dynamic-code module. In some embodiments, performing the code-integrity-validation process on the static-code module includes performing a signature-verification process on the static-code module. In some embodiments, performing the behavior-integrity-validation process on the dynamic-code module includes using an encrypted-and-signed test vector.Type: GrantFiled: August 13, 2018Date of Patent: April 20, 2021Assignee: NAGRAVISION S.A.Inventors: Scott Jantz, Steven Seltzer
