A method and device for securely displaying digital content, such as an advertisement, on a computing device includes establishing an advertisement enforcement module in a secured environment on the computing device. The computing device receives advertisements from a remote advertisement server, which are validated by the advertisement enforcement module. The advertisement enforcement module ensures that the advertisement is displayed on the computing device in a secure manner and monitors for tampering of the advertisement and advertisement service by the user of the device.

Illustrative embodiments of systems and methods providing remote management over a wireless wide-area network (WWAN) using short messages are disclosed. In one embodiment, a computing device may include an in-band processor, a wireless transceiver configured for communications over a WWAN, and an out-of-band (OOB) processor capable of communicating over the WWAN using the wireless transceiver irrespective of an operational state of the in-band processor. The OOB processor may be configured to receive a short message via the wireless transceiver, determine whether the short message originated from a trusted remote computing device, and execute at least one operation indicated by the short message in response to determining that the short message originated from a trusted remote computing device.

Methods and systems may provide for conducting an authentication of an external card associated with a borrower of a device, and tracking a usage of the device by the borrower if the authentication of the external card is successful. In addition, the usage may be reported to a billing service. The usage may be billed according to a fee based policy so that payment for the usage may be obtained from the borrower of the device rather than the owner of the device.

In some embodiments, the invention involves parental or master control of a child or subordinate mobile phone without service provider intervention. An embodiment of the invention is a system and method relating to master control of the subordinate smart phone using features on the smart phones, and independent of features provided by the phone service providers. Communication between the master and subordinate phones may be initiated using near field communication, Bluetooth, direct connect to a PC, or by other secure, local wireless or wired connections. Once initiated, desired communication events are captured by the parental control application to effect control policies on the subordinate phone. Communication between the phones may be encrypted to prevent malicious intervention of message traffic. Other embodiments are described and claimed.

摘要:
A method, system, and device for analyzing images captured by a vehicle-based camera includes establishing a communication connection between a mobile communication device and an in-vehicle computing system. Scanning data may be retrieved from a scanning data server by the mobile communication device and, in some embodiments, forwarded to the in-vehicle computing system. A vehicle-base camera may be used to capture one or more images. An image analysis module of the in-vehicle computing system or mobile communication device may be used to analyze the captured image(s) for a match between the image(s) and the scanning data. In response to identifying a match, the mobile communication device may notify the scanning data server of the identified match.
