  • Publication number: 20150070134
    Abstract: A wearable device (“WD”) stores a token after its wearer completes a successful strong authentication on a primary protected device (“primary PD”). Other protected devices (“secondary PDs”) recognize the stored token as representing a strong authentication and grant the user access while the user continues to wear the WD within a “digital leash-length” proximity. The WD constantly monitors whether the user continues to wear the device. Upon sensing that the user has removed the WD, the WD deletes, disables, or invalidates the token, The user must then repeat the strong authentication to gain further access to the protected devices.

  • Publication number: 20150006667
    Abstract: This disclosure is directed to a dynamic data compression system. A device may request data comprising certain content from a remote resource. The remote resource may determine if any part of the content is identical or similar to content in other data and if the other data is already on the requesting device. Smart compression may then involve transmitting only the portions of the content not residing on the requesting device, which may combine the received portions of the content with the other data. In another example, a capturing device may capture at least one of an image or video. Smart compression may then involve transmitting only certain features of the image/video to the remote resource. The remote resource may determine image/video content based on the received features, and may perform an action based on the content. In addition, a determination whether to perform smart compression may be based on system/device conditions.
