  • Patent number: 7062650
    Abstract: A system and method for verifying integrity of a system with multiple components includes a plurality of related object components that forms the software system, a signed binary description file manager that generates a signed binary description file (SBDF) to store verification and license information of the plurality of related object components, and a verification agent that verifies itself and the plurality of related object components. The manager associates unique identification (ID) names that represents the related object components with corresponding sets of component license information, and stores the associations in the signed binary description file. The verification agent retrieves license information pertinent to itself and each of the related object components utilizing the SBDF. The verification agent verifies the related object components after verifying its own integrity.

  • Publication number: 20020126840
    Abstract: A circuit is presented including a key generating section. The key generating section generates a plurality of individual keys based on a main key. A decryption generating section is connected to the key generating section and a main decryption section. The decryption generating section generates a plurality of individual decryption processes based on the main decryption section and the plurality of individual keys. Also included is a main encryption section. The main encryption section uses the main key to encrypt content. Additionally, a method is presented that generates a plurality of individual keys based on a main key. The method also generates a plurality of individual decryption processes based on a main decryption process and the plurality of individual keys. Content is encrypted based on an encryption process and the main key.
