Assignee:

EMC Corporation - Hopkinton MA

International Classification:

H04L 29/06
H04L 9/32

US Classification:

713185, 713150, 713155, 713159, 713168, 713169, 726 2, 726 3, 726 4, 726 9, 726 20, 726 26, 380249, 380270, 380274, 709227, 709229, 709230, 709237, 705 65, 705 66, 705 67

Abstract:

A method of generating authentication seeds for a plurality of users, the method involving: based on a single master seed, generating a plurality of derivative seeds, each one for a corresponding different one of a plurality of users; and distributing the plurality of derivative seeds to a verifier for use in individually authenticating each of the plurality of users to that verifier, wherein generating each one of the plurality of derivative seeds involves mathematically combining the master seed and a unique identifier identifying the corresponding user.

International Classification:

G06F 21/00

US Classification:

713185

Abstract:

A method of communicating within a system that includes a device, a controller for the device, a token, and a driver which implements a predefined interface for enabling communication with and/or control of the device through the controller, the method involving: via the predefined interface, receiving instructions and/or data at the controller from the driver for controlling the device; via the predefined interface, receiving at the controller a preselected control parameter indicating that communication with the token is desired; and in response to receiving the preselected control parameter, directing communications to the token.

Abstract:

Scanning systems and related methods are provided. The scanning systems and methods may be computed tomography (CT) based scanning systems and methods. According to some aspects, the scanning systems have a reduced size compared to conventional scanning systems and may have similar throughput to some conventional scanning systems. According to some aspects, the scanning systems are reconfigurable into at least two scanning arrangements. Reduced size and/or reconfigurable scanning systems can allow an operator to dispose a scanning system in an environment that would not accommodate a conventional scanning system. Accordingly, the scanning systems described herein can provide enhanced security in some environments.
