  • Publication number: 20160154967
    Abstract: A method of data transfer in an electronic device including a secure module, which includes a processor and a secure element, an application processor, and a sensor, may include: switching an operation mode of the processor to a bypass mode; performing a cross-authentication, by the application processor and the secure element; generating a session key, by the application processor and the secure element, when the cross-authentication is succeeded; switching the operation mode of the processor to a normal mode; encrypting, by the secure module, sensing data provided by the sensor using the session key; transferring the encrypted sensing data from the processor to the application processor; and/or acquiring, by the application processor, the sensing data by decrypting the encrypted sensing data using the session key.

  • Publication number: 20160156599
    Abstract: A method for communicating medical data includes forming a secure channel between a first medical device and a second medical device connected to each other through a network on the basis of first authentication information of the first medical device and second authentication information of the second medical device; encrypting medical data that is obtained by the first medical device using a secure circuit that is provided in the first medical device; and transmitting the encrypted medical data to the second medical device through the secure channel.

  • Publication number: 20160080154
    Abstract: In a method of controlling an electronic device using a wearable device, the electronic device is paired with the wearable device. A cryptographic key, which corresponds to the electronic device, is stored in a secure storage device included in the wearable device. A distance between the wearable device and the electronic device is estimated by the wearable device. An unlock signal including the cryptographic key, which is stored in the secure storage device, is transmitted from the wearable device to the electronic device when the estimated distance is smaller than a threshold distance. The electronic device is unlocked based on the unlock signal.

  • Patent number: 7552441
    Abstract: There is provided a socket compatibility layer for a TOE in a high quality server system. The socket compatibility layer for a TOE provides a standard socket API to an application program and provides binary-level compatibility so that a networking function of a TOE can be used without modifying the conventional socket application program thereby supporting simultaneous use of a TOE and a general Ethernet-based NIC. In a kernel structure of the Linux operation system, the socket compatibility layer for a TOE is located below a BSD socket layer receiving a socket system call from an application program through a standard socket API, is located above an INET socket layer and a TOE driver to control connection between an upper layer and a lower layer, and transmits the socket system call received from the BSD socket layer to the TOE driver or the INET socket layer according to call contents of the socket system call.

  • Patent number: 7382802
    Abstract: The present invention propose a new mechanism, IP check layer which enables to use TOE cards and legacy NICs simultaneously within same protocol family in a Linux or a UNIX computing environment. The IP check layer is inserted between a BSD socket layer and an INET socket layer. IP check layer maintains a routing information and, information of IP addresses of each network interfaces and each socket's bind state. Using this information, IP check layer determines how to process a socket call and which layer (TOE layer, host INET layer) will take over the socket call. By means of the above mechanism, the present invention makes existing socket applications to use TOE cards and legacy NICs at the same time without modification or recompiling.
