US Classification:

713182, 713183, 713185, 713193, 713178

Abstract:

A system and method is provided for confirmation of the identity of a contact on the network. A notification that a nearby user is present on a network is signed with a private key associated with the nearby user. The private key is also associated with a public key. A local user that has the nearby user's public key can verify the signature on the notification and confirm that the nearby user is the source of the notification. The verification of identity of the nearby user allows rich content previously stored for the nearby user to be displayed along with the nearby user's presence information.

Abstract:

A messaging system is provided whereby a message indicative of an invitation to collaboratively execute an application can be sent from one of the computing object to an intermediary system whereby the message is multicast to the other ones of the plurality of computing objects. The invitation message can be accepted by the other computing objects to cause the first object to launch the corresponding application. The other computing objects also launch versions of the application and exchange addressing information with the first application so that a multiparty application execution can be established.

International Classification:

G06F 1/32

US Classification:

713320

Abstract:

A method and device may selectively resume a computing device from a low power state according to a security policy. The security policy may be embedded in the hardware of the computing device and may be enforced even when the device is in a low power state. Such a policy may provide protection from hacker and virus based denial of service attacks using a flood of packets formatted to provide a wake event request. Other embodiments are described and claimed.

US Classification:

713323, 726 6

Abstract:

Methods, apparatuses, and computer program products that respond to wake events of communication networks are disclosed. One or more embodiments comprise setting a wake password of a computing device, such as a notebook computer or a server. Some of the embodiments comprise receiving a wake request from a communications network, establishing a secure communication session, and setting the wake password with the secure communication session. Some embodiments comprise an apparatus having a network controller to allow a platform to communicate via a communications network, non-volatile memory that stores a wake password, and a management controller which may communicate with a management console via a secure communication session to update the wake password. One or more embodiments the network controller may wake management hardware and/or wake the management controller while keeping one or more of the devices in the power conservation mode.
