摘要:
Before a device enters a power saving mode, a location-aware application in the device may provide at least one wake trigger (and a trigger limit) to a low power monitoring module (LPMM). In power saving mode, the LPMM receives device locations from a location service module and may determine when the device location corresponds to the at least one wake trigger or trigger limit. In one embodiment, device location may only be provided to the LPMM based on a condition (e.g., timer expiration or reaching a displacement threshold as measured by sensors in the device). When device location corresponds to the trigger limit, the LPMM may notify the device (e.g., cause a transition to an active power mode) so that the location-aware application can redetermine the at least one wake trigger. The device location corresponding to the at least wake trigger may also cause the LPMM to notify the device.

Methods and systems to allow an authorized user to remotely awaken, boot, and login to a computer in a secure manner. The user and computer may communicate using a short message service. (SMS). The user may communicate with the computer using a mobile device, such as a smart phone. The user may initially provide a wake-up message to the computer, which may then respond by asking for one or more boot passwords. In an embodiment, these boot passwords may be basic input/output system (BIOS) passwords that are required for the loading and operations of the computer's BIOS. The user may then provide these one or more passwords to the computer. The computer may further request an operating system (OS) login password. The user may then provide this password to the computer. In an embodiment, all passwords may be provided to the computer in encrypted form. Moreover, authentication measures may be used to provide assurance that the user is legitimate.

A method, apparatus, system, and computer program product for a secure subscriber identity module service. Communication via a mobile network is activated in response to receiving a request to activate communication service for the system by a secure partition of the system. In response to receiving the request, a key is retrieved for a permit service from storage accessible only by the secure partition. The key is included in a permit requesting to activate the communication service, and the permit is sent to a service provider for the communication service. The service provider communicates with the permit service to obtain a digital signature for the permit. The secure partition receives a signed permit from the service provider, confirms that the signed permit contains the digital signature by the permit service, and activates the communication service for the system in response to confirming that the signed permit contains the digital signature.
摘要:
A method, system, and computer program product for a host software tamper detection and protection service. A secure partition that is isolated from a host operating system of the host system, which may be implemented by firmware of a chipset of the host system, obtains file metadata from the host system and uses the file metadata to identify a first file for examination for tampering. The secure partition obtains data blocks for the first file, communicates with a service via an out-of-band communication channel, and uses information obtained from the service and the data blocks to determine whether the first file has been corrupted. The secure partition obtains the file metadata and the data blocks for the first file without invoking an operating system or file system of the host system.

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.
