    Abstract: A content distribution network is made up of terminals and servers that are connected as a network and cooperate in order to make content or data available to users. In order to be able to control access to the content via certain terminals, a solution called “URL signing” has been discussed. A “URL signing” solution requires establishing an active connection between a terminal requesting content and an originating server associated with the requested content. The solution relates to a method for accessing content implemented by a cache server, thus dispensing with the need for an active connection between a terminal requesting content and the originating server associated with the requested content.

    Abstract: A method for capturing a packet from an encrypted session established between a terminal unit and a data server. The packet includes a datum for determining a security key used for the encryption of the packet. The method is implemented by a device routing the packet between the terminal unit and the data server and includes: analysis of a plurality of packets transmitted by the terminal unit and destined for the server; identification of a cooperation packet from among the plurality of analyzed packets, the cooperation packet including the determining datum corresponding to a security key used for the encryption of packets transmitted by the terminal unit to the data server prior to the terminal unit sending the cooperation packet; and decryption of the received cooperation packet using a security key corresponding to the determining datum from the identified cooperation packet.

    Abstract: A method for measuring reputation of paths visiting nodes in a communication network and including, for each node visited by a current path of the network: a) assigning a security score for the node; b) estimating a first trust index based on: a cumulative on the current path of the successive scores of the nodes visited by the current path; and a number of nodes visited by the current path, the estimation of the first trust index providing a reputation measurement for the current path.

    Abstract: A method for determining a hosting device of a network infrastructure of an operator for the installation of a virtualized function. The virtualized function contributes to transmission and processing of at least one item of information relating to a service. The method is implemented by a management entity of the infrastructure and includes: transmitting to a virtualization entity a compatibility request including at least one datum relating to a test of a resource of the hosting device; receiving from the virtualization entity at least one first variable derived from the test, relating to the transmitted datum, executed on the resource; and determining an aptitude of the hosting device to accommodate the virtualized function as a function of the at least one first variable received.

    Abstract: A method for preserving a transmission rate of second data transmitted by a first terminal destined for a second terminal attached to at least one access device in a communications network. A communications network node capable of routing the second data identifies an inability of the at least one access device to send first data received from the first terminal to the second terminal, processes the first data received from the first terminal during the identified period of inability of the at least one access device, and transmits to the first terminal a notification indicating that the first stored data is not subject to congestion.

    Abstract: A method allowing execution of transmission functions hosted in intermediate pieces of equipment of a path established between two pieces of communication equipment. End-to-end encryption systems are designed to resist any surveillance or tampering attempt, as no third party can decrypt or modify the communicated data. There is a solution which, depending on the connection opening requests of the applications, allows to select and assemble the transport protocols necessary for the operation of the application. However, this method is local: this protocol stack is only assembled at the pieces of communication equipment constituting the ends of the connections. Consequently, the requests emitted by these applications are not transmitted to the intermediate pieces of equipment which host the desired functions. The method allowing execution of transmission functions allows to re-establish cooperation between pieces of communication equipment, constituting the ends of a connection, with intermediate nodes hosting transmission functions.

    Abstract: A method is provided for managing notifications between a user agent installed in a mobile terminal and a web server. The method includes the following acts, carried out by an intermediate piece of equipment: receiving a notification message from the mobile terminal in accordance with a first protocol designed for transmission over a signaling channel, the notification message including notification data from the user agent; generating a notification message in accordance with a second protocol designed for transmission over the Internet network, in which the notification data is inserted; and transmitting to the web server, of the notification message in accordance with the second protocol. Also provided are an intermediate piece of equipment implementing these acts, as well as a method for sending a notification message and a mobile terminal implementing such a sending method.

    Abstract: A method, a device and a program are provided for processing data. The method is implemented within an intermediary module. The data is transmitted between a customer module and a server module connected through a communications network. The method includes: receiving, from one among the customer and server modules, an intermediation request identifying an operation of intermediation to be performed relative to a stream of encrypted data exchanged between the customer module and the server module; and processing relative to said encrypted data as a function of said operation of intermediation.
