Abstract: A method and system for authenticating a user based on a human-recognizable visual representation of biometric data of the user is captured using the digital camera, wherein a biometric feature descriptor is generated from the captured biometric data of the user, and the feature descriptor, together with a user selected user profile, is transmitted to an inspection server adapted for validating whether the transmitted biometric feature descriptor corresponds to a centrally stored biometric feature descriptor of biometric data of the user. If this is the case, the inspection server transmits an “authentication approved” signal together with user personalization data specified in the selected user profile to the inspection terminal.

Abstract: A method for exchanging information about an event located in a zone, including a step of opening a two-way communication channel, triggered by a user located in the zone; a step of an electronic device acquiring zone data including images of the event and location data of the electronic device; a step of transmitting zone data to a server; a step of the server analysing the zone data; a step of the server generating user information on the basis of the analysis; a step of feeding back information, wherein the server transmits the user information to the electronic device, in order to send the user information to the user.

Abstract: A method for detecting bots in a user network (R), the method comprising the following steps: receiving (102) by a user terminal (2) an identifier (ID) associated with a network user account; transmitting (104), by the user terminal (2), the identifier (ID) to an access control system (3) configured to determine whether or not a mobile terminal owner has the right to access an area or service, the area or service being independent of the user network (R); transmitting (106), by the access control system (3) to the server (1), a representative data element supporting that the identifier (ID) has been received by the access control system (3); and using (108) by the server (1) the representative data element to determine whether the user of the account associated with the identifier (ID) is a bot or not.

Abstract: A method of sharing of a reference key (AppKey) between a connected object and at least one server. The method includes the object applying a function (f) to at least one datum (DevEUI, AppEUI, DevNonce) and to a key (KSE) specific to a secure element of the object to generate the reference key, transmitting to the server a join request of the object to a network of connected objects, which include the datum, and the key (KSE) of the secure element not being transmitted to the server. The method further includes obtaining, by the server, of the key (KSE) of the secure element on the basis of the request, the server applying the function (f) to the datum and to the key (KSE) obtained by the server, so as to obtain the reference key.

Abstract: The present invention relates to a method for enrolling an individual with a view to processing biometric data of the individual by a processor and by a secure element, comprising the following steps implemented by the processor from a reference biometric data acquired on the individual: obtaining a logical object calculated from the reference biometric data and from a key, said logical object making it possible to subsequently reconstruct said key from an acquired biometric data if a distance between the reference biometric data and the acquired biometric data is less than a threshold, said logical object being referred to as helper data, transmitting the key to the secure element. The processor and the secure element are for example embedded on the same physical medium.

Abstract: The invention relates to a method of sharing of a reference key (AppKey) between a connected object (1) and at least one server (2), the method comprising the steps of: application (102) by the object (1) of a function (f) to at least one datum (DevEUI, AppEUI, DevNonce) and to a key (KSE) specific to a secure element of the object (1) to generate the reference key, transmission (108) to the server (2) of a join request of the object (1) to a network of connected objects, comprising the datum, the key (KSE) of the secure element (4) not being transmitted to the server (2), obtaining, by the server (2), of the key (KSE) of the secure element (4) on the basis of the request, application (208) by the server (2) of the function (f) to the datum and to the key (KSE) obtained by the server (2), so as to obtain the reference key.

Abstract: The invention relates to a method for identifying a person to be identified having a certified data medium linking a primary identifier and a primary biometric characteristic of a holder of the data medium, acquiring, during a unique operation, the first biometric characteristic on the person to be identified and a second, distinct biometric characteristic, verifying that the person to be identified corresponds to the holder of the data medium by comparing the first acquired biometric characteristic to that of the data medium, storing the second acquired biometric characteristic and associating it with a secondary identifier and during a subsequent identification, acquiring the second biometric characteristic on the person to be identified and comparing it to the second biometric characteristic.
