Abstract

An RFID device (10) is provided. The RFID device (10) includes a first loop antenna (14) embedded in a device body (12), and a second loop antenna (16) embedded in the device body (12). The first loop antenna (14) and the second loop antenna (16) partially overlap each other by a set distance (d). This results in a suppression of a cross-coupling between the first loop antenna (14) and the second loop antenna (16), and allows for an optimum use of the space that is available for the antennas on the device body (12). In this manner, a reliable operation of the two antennas within desired communication ranges can be obtained.

Abstract

A method and system for adaptive power saving for a multiple technology credential reader may provide improved credential reader power management. The multiple technology credential reader may poll for a first credential type using a first credential radio within the plurality of credential radios. The multiple technology credential reader may discover a first device associated with the first credential type within a radio frequency range of the first credential radio and may cause, responsive to discovering the first device, a second credential radio associated with a second credential type to enter a low power mode. The multiple technology credential reader may determine the first device is positioned within a close proximity threshold range of the multiple technology credential reader, and may authorize a credential access (e.g., physical access, logical access) for the first device responsive to determining the first device is positioned within the close proximity threshold range.

Abstract

In an embodiment, an initiating device and a responding device exchange ephemeral public keys. The initiating device generates a signature that includes a first value and both ephemeral public keys, and that is signed with an initiating-device static secret key. The initiating device calculates a shared secret from the responding-device ephemeral public key and the initiating-device ephemeral secret key, and then generates a symmetric key based on (i) the shared secret and (ii) context-binding identifiers of both ephemeral public keys. The initiating device generates an encryption package that includes the signature and a public-key certificate that includes an initiating-device static public key and a cryptographic signature of a trusted authority, and that is encrypted with the generated symmetric key. The initiating device transmits the encryption package to the responding device. The responding device performs similar complementary operations, and a secure mutual authentication flow is achieved.

Abstract

A first computing device maintains multiple resource-specific asymmetric keypairs that are each uniquely associated with a different protected resource on the first device, including a first resource-specific asymmetric keypair that is uniquely associated with a first protected resource. The first device engages with a second device in an authentication flow based on the first resource-specific asymmetric keypair. The first device receives, from the second device, a public-key certificate that contains target-binding data that indicates a specified asymmetric keypair. The first device checks whether the specified asymmetric keypair matches the first resource-specific asymmetric keypair. If so, and assuming any other authentication conditions are also met, the first device authenticates the second device to the first resource-specific asymmetric keypair, and grants the second device access to the first protected resource.

Abstract

Disclosed herein are systems and methods for using a web/Bluetooth API for mobile access control. In an embodiment, a computing system receives an endpoint identifier associated with a visitor. The system generates a URL associated with the endpoint identifier, and transmits the URL to an endpoint associated with the endpoint identifier. The system receives, from a mobile device associated with the visitor, a request for a web/Bluetooth Low Energy (BLE) webpage corresponding to the URL. The system generates the requested webpage, and transmits the webpage to the mobile device. The webpage contains a valid credential for access to a secured resource, and also contains executable code for calling at least one function of a web/BLE API. The system transmits the webpage to the mobile device, and thereafter receives the credential from the mobile device via a BLE communication, verifies the credential, and accordingly grants access to the secured resource.

Abstract

An RFID assembly (10) includes an RFID chip (14) having a coupling loop (15) formed as part of the RFID chip (14). In this manner, the RFID chip (14) can be inductively coupled to a far-field antenna (16) for RFID communications, without any physical connections between the RFID chip (14) and the coupling loop (15) and/or the far-field antenna (16). This results in a high temperature resistance of the RFID assembly (10), which can be advantageously used, in particular, during tracking of parts in assembly processes requiring higher temperatures.

Abstract

Disclosed herein are systems and methods for homomorphic-encryption-supported provisioning of secure devices. In an embodiment, a provisioning server (e.g., a cloud-based provisioning server) receives a request, associated with (e.g., from) a secure device (e.g., a keycard), for a homomorphically encrypted diversified key that is based on (e.g., derived from) a master key of an encryption system. The secure device stores a copy of a homomorphic-encryption key. The provisioning server derives a homomorphically encrypted diversified key from a homomorphically encrypted master key, which is the master key previously encrypted with the homomorphic-encryption key. The provisioning server transmits the homomorphically encrypted diversified key to the secure device. The secure device may then be operable to access at least one resource using a diversified master key, which is the homomorphically encrypted diversified key after having been decrypted on the secure device using its stored copy of the homomorphic-encryption key.

Abstract

It is provided a method for determining whether a portable key device is located inside or outside a metal door. The method is performed by a credential communication device and comprises the steps of: obtaining a first time-of-flight, ToF, measurement between a first antenna and the portable key device, wherein the first antenna is located on the outside of the metal door; obtaining a second ToF measurement between a second antenna and the portable key device, wherein the second antenna is located on the inside of the metal door; and determining the portable key device to be located on the outside of the metal door when the first ToF measurement is less than the second ToF measurement by an amount which is greater than a threshold value.
