Abstract: Alerts are transmitted to subscribers to an alerts service in response to events that occur within a gaming environment. Communication within the gaming environment is limited to specific game consoles and the gaming service. A subscriber to the alert notification service can be alerted when a friend joins the gaming service to play a game, or can select other events for which an alert is requested to be sent to the subscriber. In response to any predetermined event occurring within the gaming environment, an alerts service provides an alert or message that is transmitted through a secure firewall and outside the gaming environment. The alert message can be in the form of a pop-up that appears on a user's instant messaging service, or an email, or a message that is transmitted through a mobile communication service to a cell phone or other portable communication device.

Abstract: An architecture is described to manufacture console-based gaming systems in a manner that allows them to be authenticated to a remote entity for online participation. The architecture involves placing pre-established secrets on the game console during console manufacturing that may be subsequently used to guarantee the authenticity of the game console during registration time.

Abstract: A network architecture for console-based gaming systems enables secure communication among multiple game consoles over a local area network. The system architecture supports a three-phase secure communication protocol. The first phase involves generating shared keys that are unique to an authentic game console running an authentic game title. In the second phase, a “client” console attempts to discover existing game sessions being hosted by a “host” game console by broadcasting a request over the local area network. The broadcast request is protected using the shared keys. If the host console agrees to let the client console play, the host console generates session keys that are returned to the client console. The third phase involves a key exchange in which the client and host consoles exchange data used to derive one or more secrets for securing future communications. The key exchange is protected using the session keys.

Abstract: A network test system utilizes known good responses when testing responses from in-test servers. In one embodiment, the test system includes a verification server that is known to provide correct responses. In-test servers are subjected to very high rates of requests, and the responses are compared to responses from the verification server. Hash values are optionally used to represent the correct responses, and are compared to similar hash values produced from the actual responses of the in-test servers. Dynamic data is accommodated by basing the hash values on only the static portions of responses. Alternatively, dynamic data is accommodated by using search patterns—when receiving an actual response from an in-test server, the response is searched for the specified search pattern. The response is deemed to be incorrect if the search pattern does not occur. Wildcards and other variable elements are used in the search patterns.

Abstract translation: 网络测试系统在测试来自测试服务器的响应时利用已知的良好响应。 在一个实施例中，测试系统包括已知提供正确响应的验证服务器。 测试服务器受到非常高的请求率，并将响应与来自验证服务器的响应进行比较。 哈希值可选地用于表示正确的响应，并且与从测试服务器的实际响应产生的类似哈希值进行比较。 通过将哈希值仅基于响应的静态部分来适应动态数据。 或者，通过使用搜索模式来适应动态数据 - 当从测试服务器接收到实际响应时，搜索指定的搜索模式的响应。 如果搜索模式不发生，则该响应被视为不正确。 通配符和其他可变元素用于搜索模式。

Abstract: Methods and apparatus for synchronizing access control in a web server are described. A plurality of security scenarios are defined, each of which has one or more security settings associated therewith. The security settings are those that are associated with a plurality of access control mechanisms that control access to a web server or to resources that are used by the web server. One or more of the security settings for one or more of the access control mechanisms are set when a security scenario is selected. Thus, the security settings for a number of different access control mechanisms can be set contemporaneously by selecting one security scenario.
