  • Publication number: 20220078168
    Abstract: Systems and methods are described that use cryptographic techniques to improve the security of applications executing in a potentially untrusted environment associated with a software application. Embodiments of the disclosed systems and methods may, among other things, facilitate cryptographic operations within an execution environment associated with browser software of a client system while maintaining security of cryptographic keys imported into the environment. As the security of keys is maintained in an execution environment implementing embodiments of the disclosed systems and methods, users and/or systems may be more willing to consign their keys for use in connection with cryptographic operations performed in such environments.

  • Publication number: 20210349712
    Abstract: Systems and methods are described that use software diversification techniques to improve the security of mobile applications. Embodiments of the disclosed systems and methods may, among other things, facilitate secure application distribution through deployment of diverse of applications in an application distribution channel. Software diversification consistent with certain disclosed embodiments may mitigate large-scale automated circumvention of security protections by presenting attacking malware moving and/or otherwise unpredictable diverse targets.
