    Abstract: Some embodiments provide a method for a first device to synchronize a set of data items with a second device. The method receives a request to synchronize the set of data items stored on the first device with the second device. The method determines a subset of the synchronization data items stored on the first device that belong to at least one synchronization sub-group in which the second device participates. Participation in at least one of the synchronization sub-groups is defined based on membership in at least one verification sub-group. The first and second devices are part of a set of related devices with several different verification sub-groups. The method sends only the subset of the synchronization data items that belong to at least one synchronization sub-group in which the second device participates to the second device using a secure channel.

    Abstract: Techniques are disclosed relating to securely storing data in a computing device. In one embodiment, a computing device includes a secure circuit configured to maintain key bags for a plurality of users, each associated with a respective one of the plurality of users and including a first set of keys usable to decrypt a second set of encrypted keys for decrypting data associated with the respective user. The secure circuit is configured to receive an indication that an encrypted file of a first of the plurality of users is to be accessed and use a key in a key bag associated with the first user to decrypt an encrypted key of the second set of encrypted keys. The secure circuit is further configured to convey the decrypted key to a memory controller configured to decrypt the encrypted file upon retrieval from a memory.

    Abstract: A wireless device can obtain a network information record from another device operating as a credential source. The network information record can include network access information for a wireless network (e.g., SSID and password) and a usage policy specifying conditions under which the wireless device should search for the wireless network (e.g., temporal and/or spatial conditions). The wireless device can implement the usage policy by searching for the wireless network only when the conditions are satisfied. In some instances, the network access information can include instructions for dynamically generating time-varying network access information, and the wireless device can use the instructions to generate network access information during a search for wireless networks.

    Abstract: Some embodiments provide a method for an electronic device. The method stores user data associated with a web-based third party service based on user interaction with a web domain for the third party service through a web browser. The method receives a request from a service-specific application to utilize the user data stored for the third party service. The method provides the user data to the application only when the application is verified by the web domain for receiving user data associated with the third party service.
