Abstract:
Various embodiments are generally directed to the provision and use of geometric location based security systems that use multiple beacons for determining a location. A beacon transmitted from an ultrasound broadcast as well as one or more different wireless broadcasts can be used to geo-locate a device and provide access controls based on the geo-location.
Abstract:
In embodiments, apparatuses, methods and storage media (transitory and non-transitory) are described that are associated with user profile selection using contextual authentication. In various embodiments, a first user of a computing device may be authenticated and have an access control state corresponding to a first user profile established, the computing device may select a second user profile based at least in part a changed user characteristic, and the computing device may present a resource based at least in part on the second user profile. In various embodiments, the computing device may include a sensor and a user profile may be selected based at least in part on an output of the sensor and a previously stored template generated by a machine learning classifier.
Abstract:
In one embodiment, a method includes receiving a first request from a first device to access a first resource of the system and determining whether to grant access to the first resource based on a first access control list stored in the system, the first access control list associated with the first device, the first device having a first relevance value, and based on the determination, granting the access to the first resource; and receiving a second request from a second device to access a second resource of the system and forwarding the second request to an access manager service coupled to the system to determine whether to grant access to the second resource based on a second access control list stored in the access manager service associated with the second device, the second device having a second relevance value, receive an access grant from the access manager service and based thereon, granting the access to the second resource.
Abstract:
In one embodiment, a method includes receiving, in an on-boarding system for a first network, a request to transfer ownership of a first device having a trusted execution environment to a new owner; receiving, in the on-boarding system, notification information from a spectrum analyzer regarding wireless signal information within the first network; determining if a potential attacker is within a radio range of the first network based on the wireless signal information; responsive to determining that the potential attacker is within the radio range, manipulating a signal strength of the on-boarding system and the first device, to limit an emission range of the on-boarding system and the first device; and performing a native communication protocol between the on-boarding system and the first device to communicate ownership information to execute the ownership transfer to the new owner, and to cause the first device to store the ownership information in a storage of the first device.
Abstract:
In one embodiment, a system includes a processor having a first logic to execute in a trusted execution environment, and a storage to store a plurality of access control policies, each of the plurality of access control policies associated with a composite device state of the system and including an access policy for a resource to be protected by the first logic, where the first logic is to apply one or more of the plurality of access control policies to a request for access to the resource, responsive to a matching of the associated composite device state of the one or more access control policies with a current composite device state of the system. Other embodiments are described and claimed.
Abstract:
Methods, apparatus, systems and articles of manufacture are disclosed to identify privacy relevant correlations between data values. An example disclosed apparatus includes a principal monitor to identify a first privacy value associated with a first principal, a tuple manager to build a probability tuple matrix comprising a first tuple and a plurality of second tuples, the first tuple including the first principal and the associated first privacy value, and an Eigenvector engine to evaluate the probability tuple matrix to identify a dominant Eigenvector indicative of a correlation between the first privacy value and one of the plurality of second tuples.
Abstract:
Various systems and methods for implementing a soft reset state. A server device includes processing circuitry; and at least one storage device including instructions embodied thereon, wherein the instructions, which when executed by the processing circuitry, configure the processing circuitry to perform operations of a soft reset operation, the operations to: define a soft reset state; cause a check of a secure virtual resource (SVR) of the server device, while in the soft reset state; and transition from the soft reset state in response to an event.
Abstract:
Various systems and methods for user-authorized onboarding of a device using a public authorization service are described herein. In an example, a 3-way authorization protocol is used to coordinate device onboarding among several Internet of Things (IoT) Fog users (e.g., devices in a common network topology or domain) with principles of least privilege. For instance, respective onboarding steps may be assigned for performance by different Fog ‘owners’ such as respective users and clients. Each owner may rely on a separate authorization protocol or user interaction to be notified of and to give approval for the specific onboarding actions(s) assigned. Further techniques for implementation and tracking such onboarding actions as part of an IoT network service are also disclosed.
Abstract:
This disclosure is directed to privacy enforcement via localized personalization. An example device may comprise at least a user interface to present content. A message may be received into a trusted execution environment (TEE) situated within the device or remotely, the message including at least metadata and content. The TEE may determine relevance of the content to a user based on the metadata and user data. Based on the relevance, the TEE may cause the content to be presented to the user via the user interface. In one embodiment, the TEE may be able to personalize the content based on the user data prior to presentation. If the content includes an offer, the TEE may also be able to present counteroffers to the user based on user interaction with the content. The TEE may also be able to cause feedback data to be transmitted to at least the content provider.
Abstract:
Various systems and methods for user-authorized onboarding of a device using a public authorization service (310) are described herein. In an example, a 3-way authorization protocol is used to coordinate device onboarding among several Internet of Things (IoT) Fog users (e.g., devices in a common network topology or domain) with principles of least privilege. For instance, respective onboarding steps may be assigned for performance by different Fog ‘owners’ such as respective users and clients (350A, 350B, . . . , 350N). Each owner may rely on a separate authorization protocol or user interaction to be notified of and to give approval for the specific onboarding action(s) assigned. Further techniques for implementation and tracking such onboarding actions as part of an IoT network service are also disclosed.
