Method and system of secured direct link set-up (DLS) for wireless networks. In accordance with aspects of the method, techniques are disclosed for setting up computationally secure direct links between stations in a wireless network in a manner that is computationally secure. A direct link comprising a new communication session is set up between first and second stations in a wireless local area network (WLAN) hosted by an access point (AP), the direct link comprising a new communication session. The AP generates a unique session key for the new communication session and transfers secured copies of the session key to each of the first and second stations in a manner under which only the first and second stations can obtain the session key. A security mechanism is then implemented on the unsecured direct link to secure the direct link between the first and second stations using a secure session key derived from the session key.

Briefly, in accordance with an embodiment of the invention, an apparatus and method to provide authentication and secure communication is provided. In one example, the method may include transmitting machine credentials of a first device, wherein the machine credentials are used to authenticate the first device so that the first device is able to communicate with a second device after the first device transitions from a first power state to a second power state in response to a command received by the first device from another device, wherein power consumption of the first device in the first power state is less than the power consumption of the first device in the second power state. The first device may be used in either a wired or wireless network.

Apparatuses for peer-to-peer network setup are presented. In one embodiment, an apparatus comprises a wireless processing unit to communicate with a master device. The wireless processing unit is operable to receive encoded data in a two-dimensional (2D) barcode. The encoded data comprise at least user information associated with the master device including a user identifier, a device identifier, or both. The encoded data further comprise network information including a network identifier, a password, and a profile lifetime value. In one embodiment, the apparatus further comprises a display unit to display at least part of the user information and the network information to a user. The wireless processing unit is operable to initiate a peer-to-peer network setup with the master device based at least on a response from the user.

Generally, this disclosure describes devices, methods and systems for securely providing context sensor data to mobile platform applications. The method may include configuring sensors to provide context data, the context data associated with a mobile device; providing an application programming interface (API) to a sensor driver, the sensor driver configured to control the sensors; providing a trusted execution environment (TEE) operating on the mobile device, the TEE configured to host the sensor driver and restrict control and data access to the sensor driver and to the sensors; generating a request for the context data through the API, the request generated by an application associated with the mobile device; receiving, by the application, the requested context data and a validity indicator through the API; verifying, by the application, the requested context data based on the validity indicator; and adjusting a policy associated with the application based on the verified context data.

Systems and methods may provide for online identification and authentication. In one example, the method may include generating a credential to represent a relationship based on a common ground of authenticated communication between a first user and a second user, identifying the second user to the first user, authenticating the relationship of the second user to the first user, and initiating, upon authentication, a communication between the first user and the second user.
摘要:
Systems and methods of conducting collaborative sessions between mobile devices may provide for determining a time delay associated with a set of participating mobile devices, and determining a command execution time based at least in part on a clock of a managing device and the time delay. One or more control messages may be transmitted to the participating mobile devices, wherein the control messages include the command and the command execution time. Upon receiving a control message, each participating mobile device may determine a local execution time based at least in part on the command execution time and an offset of the clock of the managing device relative to a local clock. Execution of the command can therefore be coordinated across the set of participating mobile devices.
