A system and method of sending an e-mail message associated with a wireless device is provided. A request to forward or reply to an original e-mail message is sent from the wireless device to a server. The request contains one or more recipients and includes a message identifier of an original e-mail message. A portion indicator is provided for retrieving portions of the original e-mail message identified by the message identifier. An e-mail message is sent to the one or more recipients comprising any added user text and the one or more retrieved portions of the original e-mail message such that text of the original message that the user may not be aware is not forwarded to new recipients.

A system and method for controlling access to a secure resource in a device are disclosed. In some embodiments, the device may include a processor capable of receiving a first request from a first application of a plurality of applications executable by the processor, where the first request requests access to the secure resource, and the first request identifies the plurality of applications. In response to the first request, the processor is capable of generating a ticket associated with the secure resource and with each of the plurality of applications, and then storing the ticket in a memory. After receiving a second request from a second application requesting access to the secure resource, the processor is capable of granting the second application access to the secure resource, if the ticket associated with the secure resource exists and if the ticket is associated with the second application.

A secure correlation identifier (SCID) for authentically correlating notifications received from event sources with subscriptions, a SCID authentication system and method of filtering unsolicited messages are provided. The SCID comprises a correlation identifier for making the SCID unique, a sequence of bits concatenated with the correlation identifier and a secure tag concatenated with the concatenation of the correlation identifier and the sequence of bits. The system comprises a SCID generator for generating a SCID to be used in a message and a SCID authenticator for authenticating the SCID. The method comprises the steps of receiving a notification message having a SCID, verifying that that SCID is authentic, accepting the message if the SCID is authentic and rejecting the message if the SCID is not authentic.

Methods and systems for secure channel initialization transaction security between a client network element and a server network element are disclosed. In accordance with one embodiment of the present disclosure, the method includes: choosing a random client ephemeral private key at a client network element; utilizing the client ephemeral private key and the shared secret to create a client ephemeral public key at the client network element; forwarding the client ephemeral public key in a channel initialization request to a server network element; selecting a random server ephemeral private key at the server network element; using the server ephemeral private key and the shared secret to create a server ephemeral public key at the server network element; creating a high entropy shared secret based on the client ephemeral public key and the server ephemeral private key; creating a message authentication code ‘MAC’ and encrypting a payload with the high-entropy shared secret; sending the encrypted payload and the server ephemeral public key to the client network element; utilizing the server ephemeral public key and the client ephemeral private key to derive the high-entropy shared secret; and decrypting the payload and verifying the MAC with the high-entropy shared secret.

A system and method of signing a message to be sent from a first communication device to a destination via a second communication device. The message includes a first portion on the first communication device and a second portion on the second communication device. The method includes receiving at the second communication device the first portion of the message and a first signature for the first portion from the first communication device; combining the first portion and the second portion to form the message; obtaining a second signature for the message; and sending the first signature, the second signature and the message from the second communication device to the destination.

By automatically obtaining the entirety of a received message to be included, an outgoing message that includes the received message can be processed in a manner that securely and accurately represents the intended outgoing message. Alternatively, a server can assemble a composite message from a new message and an original message and, in cooperation with a wireless messaging device, sign the composite message. In both the above contexts, handling message receipts when message processing ahead of message transmission involved more than one component may be facilitated by storing appropriate expected receipt content during the message processing, either on the device or the server. Validation of the receipt can then be accomplished through use of the stored expected receipt content in a manner that retains the benefits of message processing ahead of message transmission that involves more than one component.

Systems, devices, and methods for modifying a signed bundle and verifying the modified bundle are disclosed. A signed bundle may be modified by removing a file specified in a server file list from a plurality of files in the bundle. The signed bundle comprises a catalog of files in the signed bundle and their associated hashes. The modified bundle includes the remaining files of the signed bundle that are not specified in the server file list and the catalog file of the signed bundle, the catalog signature of the signed bundle. The modified bundle may be verified by verifying the catalog signature of the modified signed bundle, and checking that the files specified in the catalog are either in the modified signed bundle or specified in the server file list. The hashes of the files in the modified signed bundle may also be checked to verify the modified signed bundle.
摘要:
Often, for reasons of wireless bandwidth conservation, incomplete messages are provided to wireless messaging devices. Employing cryptography, for secrecy or authentication purposes, when including a received message that has been incompletely received can lead to lack of context on the receiver's end. By automatically obtaining the entirety of the message to be included, an outgoing message that includes the received message can be processed in a manner that securely and accurately represents the intended outgoing message. Alternatively, a server can assemble a composite message from a new message and an original message and, in cooperation with a wireless messaging device, encrypt and sign the composite message. Conveniently, security considerations are maintained even in view of bandwidth optimization measures.

Provided is a method and apparatus for sharing information from a communication device. The communication device is to send first information to a first apparatus and second information to a second apparatus. In accordance with an embodiment of the application, the communication device combines the first information and the second information in a single message and then sends the message to a network node. In accordance with another embodiment of the application, the network node separates the first information from the second information and sends the first information and the second information to the first apparatus and the second apparatus, respectively. Note that the communication device did not have to send separate messages to the apparatuses and therefore there is a reduction in number of messages sent by the communication device. This reduction has an effect of reducing network utilization by the communication device.
摘要:
A mobile communication device operates in a wireless communication network with use of a communication service provided by a service provider (e.g. a wireless carrier for voice telephony, or data service provider for data synchronization). An application server receives, via the wireless network, a message from the mobile device. The message has a field for inclusion of a token having a digital signature corresponding to the service provider. The application server performs token validation of the message, which includes a verification step for verifying the digital signature of the token with a public key corresponding to the service provider. The application server then grants or denies access to an application service depending on the outcome of the token validation. In one embodiment, the application service is an e-commerce transaction service, wherein a proof-of-work (POW) test (e.g. a Captcha test) otherwise utilized for the service is bypassed or excluded.
