The secure communication methods may be used to transfer gaming software and gaming information between two gaming devices, such as between a game server and a gaming machine. For regulatory and tracking purposes, the transfer of gaming software between the two gaming devices may be authorized and monitored by a software authorization agent.

The invention relates to a system for securing access to resources or computer systems by means of a self modifying, single use password that limits access to a system and automatically changes each time it is used. Independent computer systems, or clients, are utilized by users to generate one time passcodes to prove their identity to one or more authentication servers. Servers are used to authenticate user inputted one time passcodes, to maintain and update the status of one time passcode clients, and perform rekeying and reset operations. Middleware, an optional component, allows for the interaction between one time passcode clients and servers. Middleware allows for client rekeying and resets as well as synchronisation between the client and server. The invention facilitates, inter alia, distribution of clients to users, maintaining and administering the status of clients on one or more servers, generation of a one time passcode (OTP), authentication of a one time passcode, rekeying of a one time passcode client, resetting of a one-time passcode client, Resetting of a one time passcode client, requesting for generation of a one time passcode on a communication enabled client through software or hardware interfaces, and authentication of one time passcodes by remote application servers.

Content such as computer software, data representing audiovisual works, and electronic documents can converted from a machine-bound state to user-bound state without modification to the content data itself. Instead, keys used to access the content are converted from the machine-bound state to the user-bound state. In particular, the keys are kept in a passport data structure which can represent either a machine-binding or a user-binding. A machine-bound passport can be upgraded to a user-bound passport without modifying the bound content. The private key of the machine-bound passport, in cleartext form, is included in the user-bound passport and encrypted using a user-supplied password to bind the private key to the user. In addition, private user information is collected and verified and included in the user-bound passport. Upgrading a machine-bound passport can be initiated automatically upon detection that an attempt is made to play back machine-bound content on a machine other than the one to which the content is bound.

A system and method of configuring an embedded system from removable media. The removable media is connected to the embedded system and the embedded system determines if the removable media includes a configuration key. If the removable media includes a configuration key, the embedded system determines if the configuration key includes configuration data applicable to the embedded system and, if the removable media includes a configuration key and the configuration key includes configuration data applicable to the embedded system, the embedded system applies the configuration data to the embedded system.

In connection with authenticating a client of a network, information is acquired that characterizes the client in a manner that enables a determination about authenticating the client of the network, the information being acquired other than in the form of a digital message that is passed on behalf of the client to the network; an authentication decision is made based on the information.Information is encrypted in a manner that is based on a physical property of an intended recipient of the information, and delivering the encrypted information to the recipient.A source of a beacon is physically associated with a person, times of receipt of the beacon at multiple stations are measured, and the location of the person is determined based on the times of receipt.A set of stations is established that are configured to acquire information that characterizes each of multiple clients in a manner that enables a determination about authenticating each of the clients with respect to a corresponding network, the information being acquired other than in the form of digital messages that are passed on behalf of the clients to the corresponding networks. The information is provided to operators of the networks to enable them to make authentication decisions based on the information.

Techniques for mapping at least one physical system and at least one virtual system into at least two separate execution environments are provided. The techniques include discovering an implicitly enforced security policy in an environment comprising at least one physical system and at least one virtual system, using the discovered policy to create an enforceable isolation policy, and using the isolation policy to map the at least one physical system and at least one virtual system into at least two separate execution environments. Techniques are also provided for generating a database of one or more isolation policies.

The present disclosure is directed towards systems and methods for performing multi-level tagging of encrypted items for additional security and efficient encrypted item determination. A device intercepts a message from a server to a client, parses the message and identifies a cookie. The device processes and encrypts the cookie. The device adds a flag to the cookie indicating the device encrypted the cookie. The device re-inserts the modified cookie into the message and transmits the message. The device intercepts a message from a client and determines whether the cookie in the message was encrypted by the device. If the message was not encrypted by the device, the device transmits the message to its destination. If the message was encrypted by the device, the device removes the flag, decrypts the cookie, removes the tag from the cookie, re-inserts the cookie into the message and transmits the message to its final destination.

An SECS communication device and an SECS communication method thereof are presented. The SECS communication device includes an SECS-II message communication part, a translation part, and an information storage device access part, and further includes at least one set of data structure files and a message format file for defining a message content and a message format of an SECS-II message. The translation part decodes the SECS-II message into data in various information storage formats of an information storage device according to the data structure file and the message format file, and encodes the data in various information storage formats of the information storage device into the SECS-II message, so as to enable message exchange between an EAP and the information storage device through the SECS communication device. By applying the SECS communication method, cost of program development is reduced, and meanwhile, high system stability and industrial efficiency are achieved.

Techniques are provided for dynamically connecting and transforming user interface events between user and generic devices based on physical keys. A user and a user device are determined. The user device is authenticated based on a login sequence, smartcard or the like. A physical key associated with the user is physically associated with a generic device by insertion, wireless link, proximity, RFID detection and the like. The dynamic association is communicated over a first communications channel. A user device confirms the dynamic association over a second communications channel. The dynamically associated generic device communicates user interface events with the dynamic user interface proxy. The user device also communicates user interface events with the dynamic user interface proxy. The dynamic user interface proxy receives, optionally transforms and routes the user interface events associated with the user device and the generic device. The dynamic user interface proxy routes received user interface events to the respective devices based on the dynamic associations between a user, a user identifier and devices associated with the user's physical key. Inter-modal user interface events are optionally transformed by the dynamic user interface proxy based on internal and / or externally accessible transformation functions.
