Abstract: An automatic code generator that may be located at a server may generate code to handle crowdsourced data. The crowdsourced data may come from members of the public using automatic data collection technology on mobile devices, in one embodiment.

Abstract: This disclosure describes methods, apparatus, and systems related to secure device provisioning system. A first computing device comprising one or more processors and one or more transceiver components may determine data received in a data scan from a second computing device. The first computing device may determine a base Uniform Resource Locator (URL) based on the data. The first computing device may determine a domain-specific suffix based at least in part on a communication domain. The first computing device may append the base URL with a domain-specific suffix. The first computing device may identify domain-specific information from a provisioning server based at least in part on the domain-specific suffix. The first computing device may send a registration request to the provisioning server based at least in part on the domain-specific information. The first computing device may identify a registration notification received from the provisioning server.

Abstract: A multi-vehicle surveillance system includes vehicles that sense alarm-triggering events and activate various surveillance devices that can best capture data relating to the alarm-triggering events. The surveillance devices are activated based on the location and other information relating to the vehicle where the alarm-triggering event is sensed.

Abstract: A method can include a mobile device, of a user determining location information corresponding to the mobile device within an establishment and communicating with a smart shopping infrastructure. The communicating may include providing the smart shopping infrastructure with the location information. The method can further include cross-referencing the location information with inventory information to determine a first location within the establishment where the mobile device is currently situated, and providing the mobile device with at least one smart shopping service based at least in part on the cross-referencing.

Abstract: Embodiments of the present invention provide methods, apparatuses, and programming instructions configured to enable a device to receive provisioning data over a Near Field Communication link, and utilize the provisioning data to receive services.

Abstract: A three-way trust relationship is established between a mobile device, Internet-connected vehicle system, and a cloud-based service. Access rights are granted to the mobile device from the vehicle system, such that the mobile device can securely connect to, and obtain status information and/or control the Internet-connected vehicle system, through the cloud-based service.

Abstract: An embodiment of the present invention provides a method for discovering services provided in a wireless network, comprising enabling devices equipped with radio interfaces to advertise the services it provides and discover services offered by other nearby devices without establishing a network connection with the devices.

Abstract: Methods for transferring a credential between two devices according to a secure protocol are described. Portions of messages in the protocol are encrypted to prevent theft and tampering. Systems using the methods are described and claimed.

Abstract: Methods for transferring a credential between two devices according to a secure protocol are described. Portions of messages in the protocol are encrypted to prevent theft and tampering. Out-of-band (OOB) data is initially transferred to bootstrap trust in establishing one or more secure communication channels over which a new device may be configured. Systems using the methods are described and claimed.

Abstract: In some embodiments, a wireless trust kiosk is presented. In this regard, a trust agent is introduced to receive an out-of-band communication from a known wireless network provider, to use the communication to challenge the identity of a wireless network, and to connect to the wireless network if it is provided by the known wireless network provider. Other embodiments are also disclosed and claimed.

Abstract: Sending message notifications to a mobile station without requiring the mobile station to fully connect to a fee-based access point for a wireless network. A message notification system registers the mobile station as ready to receive a message notification, receives a message addressed to the mobile station from a sender, generates a message notification based on the message, and transmits the message notification to the mobile station through the access point. The fee-based access point allows the mobile station to partially connect to the access point without incurring a fee. The access point receives a registration request from the mobile station, forwards the registration request to the message notification system, receives the message notification from the message notification system, waits for a poll message from the mobile station, and forwards the message notification to the mobile station when the poll message is received.

Abstract: In an embodiment, a method includes registering applications and network services for notification of an out-of-band introduction, and using the out-of-band introduction to bootstrap secure in-band provisioning of credentials and policies that are used to control subsequent access and resource sharing on an in-band channel. In another embodiment, an apparatus implements the method.
