  • Publication number: 20240098071
    Abstract: Systems and methods to securely send or write data to a cloud storage or server. In one embodiment, a method includes: establishing a connection to a client using a client-side transport protocol; receiving, over the connection, data from the first client; decrypting, using a client session key, the received data to provide first decrypted data; encrypting the first decrypted data using a stored payload key (that is associated with the client) to provide first encrypted data; encrypting, using a cloud session key, the first encrypted data using a remote-side transport protocol to provide second encrypted data; and sending the second encrypted data to the cloud storage or server.

  • Publication number: 20230214188
    Abstract: A computing device (e.g., an FPGA or integrated circuit) processes an incoming packet comprising data to compute a Galois hash. The computing device includes a plurality of circuits, each circuit providing a respective result used to determine the Galois hash, and each circuit including: a first multiplier configured to receive a portion of the data; a first exclusive-OR gate configured to receive an output of the first multiplier as a first input, and to provide the respective result; and a second multiplier configured to receive an output of the first exclusive-OR gate, wherein the first exclusive-OR gate is further configured to receive an output of the second multiplier as a second input. In one embodiment, the computing device further comprises a second exclusive-OR gate configured to output the Galois hash, wherein each respective result is provided as an input to the second exclusive-OR gate.

  • Patent number: 11267112
    Abstract: An installation apparatus for mounting a garnish having at least one attachment element onto a pillar frame structure of a vehicle can include a handle portion and a J-shaped portion located at one end of the handle portion. The J-shaped portion can include a shorter member configured to engage the vehicle from a bottom area of the pillar frame structure to create a hinge point, and a longer member configured to engage the garnish and attachment structure. The garnish can be installed to the pillar frame structure when pivoting the handle of the apparatus about the hinge point downward and towards an interior of the vehicle.

  • Patent number: 9794064
    Abstract: Systems and methods to send or write data or file objects to a remote cloud storage or data server using an encryption gateway. In one embodiment, a communication system includes: an encryption gateway configured to receive TLS (or an equivalent security) encrypted data in a payload from a client application, to terminate the client TLS connection, and to extract the payload and encrypt the payload data with keys from the key manager. The encryption gateway establishes a TLS connection and inserts the encrypted-authenticated data into the TLS payload and sends or writes the TLS encrypted data to a remote cloud storage or data server for storage. The system further includes a key manager configured to provide at least one key to the encryption gateway for encryption of the data in the payload.
