Abstract:
A method can output content of interest of a structured electronic document from a computer or distributed computer system having a processor and memory. The method includes loading a common expression and a data structure definition into memory, the common expression identifying a content element in a first structured electronic document, the data structure definition defined according to the common expression; creating in memory an instance of a data structure defined by the data structure definition; applying with the processor the common expression to a second structured electronic document to extract a content element from the second structured electronic document; storing the extracted content element in the instance of the data structure; and populating a template structured electronic document using the instance of the data structure to produce an output structured electronic document.
Abstract:
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.
Abstract:
A technique in a mobile device which is configured to communicate in a wireless network with use of a communication service provided by a service provider is described. The mobile device is configured to access via the wireless network a server for execution of an e-commerce transaction. The server is configured to administer a proof-of-work test in order to allow completion of the e-commerce transaction. The mobile device receives via the wireless network a token from a token server. The token is digitally signed by the service provider with a digital signature thereof. The mobile device sends via the wireless network a message to the server, and this message includes the token. When token validation of the message at the server is successful, the mobile device completes the e-commerce transaction with the server without performing the proof-of-work test, which is bypassed for the mobile device.
Abstract:
An electronic device includes multiple applications that can access a smart card or other security apparatus. A first application that is to use the security apparatus prompts a user for a security string such as a PIN or password. Upon receipt of the PIN or password, the first application unlocks the security apparatus for use. Additionally, the first application receives a token from a security service that interfaces with the security apparatus. The token can be shared by the first application with other applications. For example, the first application can share the token with other trusted applications. The other applications that receive the token can refrain from issuing a prompt for a security string and receiving a response from the user. The token can be used instead of the security string to obtain access to the security apparatus.
Abstract:
A certificate enrollment assistant module may be provided to inject a challenge password into a certificate signing request to be sent, to a Certificate Authority, from a computing device. The certificate enrollment assistant module, thereby, acts as a trusted proxy to assist the computing device in building a valid certificate signing request without the computing device having access to the challenge password.

Abstract:
In some aspects, a first device detects information encoded in a wireless authenticator device based on a wireless interaction between the first device and the wireless authenticator device. The first device detects the information while securing resources on the first device according to a first security mode. Based on the detected information, the first device selects a second security mode associated with the wireless authenticator device. The first device then applies the selected second security mode. The selected second security mode is one of multiple distinct security modes. Each of the multiple distinct security modes is associated with a respective one of multiple wireless authenticator devices and defines accessibility attributes of the resources on the first device.
Abstract:
Methods and devices for storing sent message data are described. The sent message data corresponds to a message sent to a destination by a communication device via a server. The method includes compiling a first portion of the message which has a plurality of components; applying security encoding to the first portion; and storing the first portion. The first portion includes at least one but not all of the plurality of components in the message, and pointers to the components not included in the first portion. A method of verifying sent message data on a communication device is also described.
Abstract:
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.
