Abstract: Techniques are disclosed relating to electronic security, e.g., for authenticating a mobile electronic device to allow access to system functionality (e.g., physical access to the system, starting an engine/motor, etc.). In some embodiments, a system and mobile device exchange public keys of public key pairs during a pairing process. In some embodiments, an asymmetric transaction process includes generating a shared secret using a key derivation function over a key established using a secure key exchange (e.g., elliptic curve Diffie-Hellman), and verifying a signature of the system before transmitting any information identifying the mobile device. In various embodiments, disclosed techniques may increase transaction security and privacy of identifying information.

Abstract: Data items such as files or database records associated with particular applications (such as messaging applications and other applications) can be stored in one or more remote locations, such as a cloud storage system, and synchronized with other devices. The remote storage can be configured such that each application executing on a client device can only view data items stored at the remote location to which the application has permission to access. An access manager on each client device enforces application specific access policies. Storage at the remote location can be secured for each application associated with a user or user account, for example, using isolated containers. The cloud storage of data can be anonymized and anonymous group data can be stored in the cloud storage.

Abstract: A method for determining the presence of a human being, comprising: measuring (S6) a movement (MOV) of a first device (4) by a sensor (44) of said first device (4), determining the presence of a human being on the basis of the measured movement (MOV).

Abstract: An electronic assembly for an electronic device may include a detection module to detect a security anomaly of a Rich-OS operating system and a disabling module to disable at least one secure function of the electronic device in response to the detection. The disablement nevertheless allows use of the electronic device in fail-soft mode. The electronic assembly may be implemented such that these two modules are dependent on a trusted operating system, and the trusted operating system and the Rich-OS operating system may be stored in a memory of the electronic assembly and executed on the electronic assembly.
