  • Publication number: 20190130395
    Abstract: Methods and systems are provided for enhanced data transmissions. A central controller of a communications network may identify, based on a user profile corresponding to a particular user, a communications terminal associated with the user, and may determine accessibility of the communications terminal. The central controller may then encrypt based on a user defined time associated with the user, data with an electronic key associated with a type of data. The central controller may then transmit the encrypted data to the communications terminal. The central controller may then verify that the user is entitled to access the encrypted data, and based on successful verifying, may transmit at least a portion of the electronic key to the communications terminal.

  • Publication number: 20190050857
    Abstract: Methods and systems are provided for enhanced data transmissions. A central communications device may be configured for encrypting data into encrypted data, using an encryption parameter associated with a particular user; transmitting the encrypted data to a communications terminal associated with the particular user; and receiving in response to the transmitting of the encrypted data, user related data from the communications terminal. The communications device may be further configured for comparing the user related data received from the communications terminal with pre-set user related data associated with the encryption parameter, with the pre-set user related data is stored in the central communications device; and when the user related data received from the communications terminal matches the pre-set user related data, transmitting the encryption parameter to the communications terminal.

  • Patent number: 10096024
    Abstract: The present invention relates to a process and a system for data transmission. Authentication data and an electronic key are generated, whereby the electronic key is stored as assigned to the authentication data. At least part of the electronic key is transmitted by means of an authentication module of the central module to a communications terminal. Asynchronously to that, data are encrypted into encrypted data by means of an encryption module and by means of at least part of the electronic key. The encrypted data are transmitted between a central module and a communications terminal. The encrypted data are decrypted by means of a decryption module and by means of at least part of the electronic key.

  • Patent number: 10097519
    Abstract: Methods and systems are provided for selectable data transmissions. An electronic key may be assigned to authenticated data associated with a particular user, electronic data may be encrypted, using at least part of the electronic key, to generate encrypted data, and a program code that must be executed to decrypt the encrypted data may be incorporating into the encrypted data. The encrypted data may be transmitted to a communications terminal identified by the user, and at least part of the electronic key may be transmitted to the communications terminal to cause decrypting the encrypted data using the at least part of the electronic key. The program code may be configured to cause checking one or more validation criteria associated with the encrypted data, at the communications terminal, during execution of the program code.

  • Patent number: 7995573
    Abstract: A method and a system for creating a communications link between at least two mobile network nodes. A first and a second interface administration module generates look-up tables including available network interfaces of the corresponding mobile network node. Configuration data of the corresponding mobile network node is transmitted to a central unit. Configuration data is transmitted from the central unit to at least one of the mobile network nodes, based on the configuration data. At least one signalling channel is created for transmitting further configuration data via one of the available network interfaces, and, based on the configuration data, at least one data channel is created via one of the available network interfaces.
