Abstract: A system and method for communicating wirelessly from a mobile device to a remote receiver station is disclosed. The system includes a controller configured to monitor a status of the mobile device and, upon an initiation event, initiate a data transfer process to wirelessly communicate data to the remote receiver station. The system also includes a voice-band modem that, upon initiation of the data transfer process is configured to receive data for transfer to the remote receiver station, divide the source data into a collection source packets, and encode the data using a fountain code encoding protocol to form a series of encoded packets. The voice band modem is also configured to transmit the series of encoded packets to the remote receiver station as a burst including all of the source data and repeatedly transmit the encoded packets until receiving an indication that the series of packets including all of the source data has been received at the receiving station.

Abstract: A method and system for performing garbage collection involving sensitive information on a mobile device. Secure information is received at a mobile device over a wireless network. The sensitive information is extracted from the secure information. A software program operating on the mobile device uses an object to access the sensitive information. Secure garbage collection is performed upon the object after the object becomes unreachable.

Abstract: A method for handling digital certificate status requests between a client system and a proxy system is provided. The method includes the steps of receiving at the proxy system digital certificate status request data transmitted from the client system and generating query data for the digital certificate status in response to receiving the digital certificate status request data. The query data is transmitted to a status provider system, and status data from the status provider system in response to the query data is received at the proxy system. Digital certificate status data based on the status data received is generated and transmitting to the client system.

Abstract: A method to be used with first and second devices where the first device communicates with the second device via numbered data packets where the second device needs to know the number of each received packet upon reception, the method comprising the acts of at the first device, forming a plurality of separate initial data packets, for each initial data packet, associating a unique number with the initial data packet, combining the initial data packet with its associated unique number to form a numbered packet, calculating a checksum for the numbered packet, combining the checksum with the initial data packet to form a transmission packet that fails to include the associated unique number and transmitting the transmission packet to the second device.

Abstract: A method and system for supporting multiple digital certificate status information providers are disclosed. An initial service request is prepared at a proxy system client module and sent to a proxy system service module operating at a proxy system. The proxy system prepares multiple service requests and sends the service requests to respective multiple digital certificate status information providers. One of the responses to the service requests received from the status information providers is selected, and a response to the initial service request is prepared and returned to the proxy system client module based on the selected response.
