    摘要: A micropayment system and method is presented for a payor U to establish payment to payee M for a transaction T, which typically has a very low value TV. The micropayment scheme minimizes the bank's processing costs, while at the same time eliminating the need for users and merchants to interact in order to determine whether a given micropayment should be selected for payment. In one embodiment, the micropayment scheme includes time constraints, which require that an electronic check C for the transaction T be presented to a bank B for payment within a predetermined time/date interval. In another embodiment, the micropayment scheme includes a selective deposit protocol, which guarantees that a user is never charged in excess of what he actually spends, even within a probabilistic framework. In another embodiment, the micropayment scheme includes a deferred selection protocol, which provides the bank with control and flexibility over the payment selection process.

    摘要: In one embodiment of a user authentication system and method according to the invention, a device shares a secret, referred to as a master seed, with a server. The device and the server both derive one or more secrets, referred to as verifier seeds, from the master seed, using a key derivation function. The server shares a verifier seed with one or more verifiers. The device, or an entity using the device, can authenticate with one of the verifiers using the appropriate verifier seed. In this way, the device and the verifier can share a secret, the verifier seed for that verifier, without that verifier knowing the master seed, or any other verifier seeds. Thus, the device need only store the one master seed, have access to the information necessary to correctly derive the appropriate seed, and have seed derivation capability. A verifier cannot compromise the master seed, because the verifier does not have access to the master seed.

    摘要: A cryptographic communications system and method. The system includes a communications channel coupled to at least one terminal having an encoding device and to at least one terminal having a decoding device. A message-to-be-transferred is enciphered to ciphertext at the encoding terminal by first encoding the message as a number M in a predetermined set, and then raising that number to a first predetermined power (associated with the intended receiver) and finally computing the remainder, or residue, C, when the exponentiated number is divided by the product of two predetermined prime numbers (associated with the intended receiver). The residue C is the ciphertext. The ciphertext is deciphered to the original message at the decoding terminal in a similar manner by raising the ciphertext to a second predetermined power (associated with the intended receiver), and then computing the residue, M', when the exponentiated ciphertext is divided by the product of the two predetermined prime numbers associated with the intended receiver. The residue M' corresponds to the original encoded message M.

    摘要: A data center for remote postage meter recharging receives resetting signal information to reset a remotely located postage meter. The remotely located postage meter has signal information stored therein for use in recharging the meter with additional postage in conjunction with a signal information received from the data center and entered into the meter. The data center includes a sealed unit for processing received resetting signal information and encrypted signal information stored at the data center outside of the sealed unit. The stored encrypted signal information at the data center is equivalent to the signal information stored in the remotely located postage meter. The sealed unit includes a decrypter for decrypting the encrypted signal information so that it may be combined with the resetting signal information to generate a signal for use in resetting the remotely located postage meter. The sealed unit also includes an encrypter for encrypting information to provide updated encrypted signal information to be stored at the data center outside of the sealed unit for use when the remotely located postage meter is again to be reset with additional postage.

    摘要: A plaintext message to be encrypted is segmented into a number of words, e.g., four words stored in registers A, B, C and D, and an integer multiplication function is applied to a subset of the words, e.g., to the two words in registers B and D. The integer multiplication function may be a quadratic function of the form ƒ(x)=x(ax+b) or other suitable function such as a higher-order polynomial. The results of the integer multiplication function are rotated by lg w bits, where lg denotes log base 2 and w is the number of bits in a given word, to generate a pair of intermediate results t and u. An exclusive-or of another word, e.g., the word in register A, and one of the intermediate results, e.g., t, is rotated by an amount determined by the other intermediate result u. Similarly, an exclusive-or of the remaining word in register D and the intermediate result u is rotated by an amount determined by the other intermediate result t. An element of a secret key array is applied to each of these rotation results, and the register contents are then transposed. This process is repeated for a designated number of rounds to generate a ciphertext message. Pre-whitening and post-whitening operations may be included to ensure that the input or output does not reveal any internal information about any encryption round. Corresponding decryption operations may be used to decrypt the ciphertext message.
