Disclosed is a protocol used by wireless stations sharing a single wireless channel. When a local station senses a communication between remote stations using the channel, the local station estimates whether its local transmissions would disrupt this on-going remote communication. To estimate, the local station forms capture models of the remote stations. From the capture models, the local station determines if its local transmission would prevent each remote station from capturing the signal from the other remote station. If the local transmission would not disrupt the remote communications, the local station transmits its message over the channel at the same time the remote stations use the channel. The local station performs the estimation using parameters of the remote stations. The stations could share their parameters by including them in headers of frames. The protocol can be implemented as an enhancement to the IEEE 802.11 standard.

A wireless computer network includes a backbone network including backbone network nodes authenticated to each other and in communication with each other. The wireless computer network also includes a master authenticator node and a proxy authenticator node among the backbone network nodes. When an unauthenticated new node requests authentication to the backbone network and the unauthenticated new node is in communication with at least one of the backbone network nodes, the at least one of the backbone network nodes becoming the proxy authenticator node for the unauthenticated new node and communicates with the master authenticator node to authenticate the unauthenticated new node to the backbone network.

A system for conducting an agreement between two parties relying on a trusted a third party includes a first party generating a first view of the agreement and transmitting the first view of the agreement to the third party, a second party independently generating a second view of the agreement and transmitting the second view of the agreement to the third party, a wireless network connecting the first party and the second party, and a wired or wireless network connecting the second party to the third party. The trusted third party, receives the first view of the agreement and the second view of the agreement, verifies conditions including that the identities of the parties that transmitted the agreements and that the independent views of the agreement are consistent with each other, and takes action to execute the agreement if the conditions are satisfied.
摘要:
A security management approach that combines network security management with application layer or software service security to address the threat of internal network security attacks. The invention is directed to a method for enhancing network security on a computer network. Data access privileges relating to users and services are interpreted, network access rules are determined based on the interpreted privileges, and network message traffic is monitored and filtered based on the determined network access rules. The interpreting, determining, monitoring, and filtering are performed at a network layer responsible for controlling how a network device gains access to the network, such as the Media Access Control (MAC) layer.

A mobile phone system and method of initializing, at a secure transaction server (STS), a mobile payment software with a software authentication parameter, as an authentic mobile payment software; providing an STS correlation between a personal identification entry (PIE) and the authentic mobile payment software; installing, in a mobile phone, the authentic mobile payment software; and inputting, by a user, the PIE to the installed authentic mobile payment software to generate according to the PIE and the software authentication parameter a transformed secure authenticable mobile phone cashless monetary transaction over the mobile phone network, as a mobile phone wireless wallet of the user of the mobile phone. The mobile phone authenticable cashless monetary transaction is performed according to an agreement view(s) protocol.

摘要:
A computer-based system securely transmitting and authenticating a transaction input by a user while retaining the anonymity of the user with respect to content of the transaction, including a device encoding the content of the transaction input by the user with a key known only to another device, encoding other portions of the transaction with another key known only to a secure transaction server, and sending the encoded content of the transaction and the encoded other portions of the transaction to the secure transaction server to authenticate an identity of the user of the device, wherein the secure transaction server decodes the other portions of the transaction and sends the encoded content of the transaction to the another device to be finally decoded.

A pay-per-connection system is coupled to a network service provider and to a client computer. The pay-per-connection system receives payment and a passcode from a user, determines duration of use based on the payment, and provides access by the client computer to the network service provider based on the payment and the passcode without advance sign-up by the user with the network service provider.

A method of migrating across link technologies on an IP-based subnet while maintaining on-going communication comprises selecting a link, and notifying interested hosts of the address of the selected link. A mobile computing devices migrates across link technologies on a subnet while maintaining on-going communication and comprises a link migration module selecting a link, and notifying interested hosts of the address of the selected link, and a dynamic MAC to IP binding module binding a MAC address to an IP address based upon the selected link. A computer-readable medium storing a program which when executed by a computer causes the computer to execute the functions of migrating across link technologies on a subnet while maintaining on-going communication, comprising selecting a link, and notifying interested hosts of the address of the selected link. The migration is executed within the mobile computing device and does not entail modification to the other components of the network.
摘要:
A computer system, a method of a computer system and a computer-readable medium securely transmit and verify a multiparty agreement. The method, the computer system, and the computer readable medium include developing and transmitting views of the multi-party agreement by each party to a separate verification party. The verification party authenticates the participants and determines whether the views of the agreement are mutually consistent, and notifies the partys of the results of the comparison.
