A method is provided for provisioning a device certificate on a device. The device is configured to communicate wirelessly with a plurality of backend servers via a communication network. The communication network includes a mobile data server. An activation request is initiated to the mobile data server for activating the device on the communication network. During activation, a device certificate request is provided to the mobile data server for the device. The device certificate request includes at least a user identifier, a device identifier and a device public key. The device certificate request is forwarded from the mobile data server to a predefined certification authority. A device certificate from the predefined certification authority is received at the device in response to the device certificate request.

Systems, devices, and methods for outputting an alert on a mobile device to indicate the use of a weak hash function are disclosed herein. In one example embodiment, the method comprises receiving data (e.g. from a server) that identifies at least one first hash function, identifying a hash digest generated using a second hash function, determining if the second hash function is weak using the received data, and outputting an alert indicating that the second hash function is weak if it is determined that the second hash function is weak.

Systems, methods, and software for providing digital security to a child message transmitted from a mobile device to a messaging server, where the mobile device typically does not transmit the parent message with the child message to the messaging server. Whether to apply digital security, such as encryption or a digital signature, or both, is determined, and if the mobile device does not include a complete copy of a parent message for insertion into the child message, the mobile device selectively downloads the parent message from the messaging server prior to the computation of a digital signature or prior to encryption. The systems and methods may also provide a check of the child message size, when the child message includes inserted parent content, to ensure that the child message does not exceed any prescribed limits on message size.

A system and method for dynamically and automatically updating the appropriate fields on the message application screen of an electronic message to show which of the appropriate service book, security encoding or security properties are acceptable or allowed for the message being composed. This updating occurs automatically based on the contents of the fields that are modified during composition of the message, such as, for example, modifications to classification of the message, recipients, keywords, or the like. Thus, the properties in place for a given message is reflected in a dynamic options list provided to the user based on the contents of various fields of the electronic message and the system policies resident on the system. The dynamic updating may provide an updated list of options to the user, or may optionally automatically apply minimum level settings based on security policy and contents of the message.

The invention relates to a method and device for authenticating a handheld electronic device to a computer or vice-versa. In a method of authenticating the handheld electronic device to the computer, the method comprises: providing the handheld electronic device with a token generator incorporated therein. The token generator is configured to generate a secure identification token as a first authentication code. The handheld electronic device requires a second authentication code for use thereof. The method involves receiving the second authentication code at the handheld electronic device; authenticating the second authentication code; automatically generating the secure identification token at the handheld electronic device as the first authentication code in response to the authenticated second authentication code; and transmitting the first authentication code from the handheld electronic device to the computer over a communication link therebetween to authenticate the handheld electronic device to the computer
摘要:
A system and method implemented at a server system, for securely wiping a remote mobile device after the device registration has been removed from the server system. Prior to removal of the device registration from the server system, a "prepackaged" command is created and stored at the server system. In the event that it is determined, after removal of the registration, that the device should be wiped or disabled, means are provided for an administrator to issue the previously stored command to the target mobile device.
