Abstract:

This disclosure relates to techniques for performing Wi-Fi authentication in a wireless communication system. Public key cryptography may be used to enhance the confidentiality of the user's permanent identity in transit. In some embodiments, a RSA-OAEP(SHA-256) encryption scheme may be used to protect the permanent identity when the EAP client needs to send the user's permanent identity to the server in the absence of pseudonym or fast re-authentication identity. In some embodiments, a server certificate is used to authenticate a iWLAN tunnel to protect an IMSI during setup of a Wi-Fi call. Using the methods described herein on both or either of the EAP client and server side may offer improved privacy protection.

International Classification:

G06Q 30/02
H04L 29/06

Abstract:

The embodiments set forth techniques for managing advertisement attributions. A first technique can be implemented by an “app store” application, and include the steps of (1) receiving, from a first user application, a request to view a second user application, where the request includes a set of digitally-signed parameters that are specific to an advertising campaign (provided by an advertisement network) for the second user application that is presented by the first user application. In turn, and in response to identifying that the second user application satisfies at least one criterion, the app store application provides the set of digitally-signed parameters to an advertisement metrics manager that: (i) verifies the set of digitally-signed parameters, and (ii) indicates, to the advertisement network, that business logic should be carried out in association with the first user application and the second user application. A second technique for managing advertisement attributions is also disclosed.

International Classification:

H04L 29/06
H04L 12/24
H04W 12/06

Abstract:

A wireless device determines a location, identifies a mobile network operator (MNO), and/or experiences a network event. In some instances, the wireless device recognizes a base station as being operated by the MNO. Based on the location, the MNO and/or the network event, the wireless device determines a security action. The security action can include one or more of: (i) ignoring a network command associated with the network event, (ii) providing an alert notification via a user interface of the wireless device alerting a user of a security risk associated with the location, MNO, and/or network event, or (iii) ignoring communication from the base station temporarily or for an indefinite period of time. In some instances, the security action includes proceeding with normal communication with the base station at the location using network services of the MNO.

International Classification:

H04W 24/08

Abstract:

Systems, methods, and computer-readable storage media for maintaining user anonymity in content statistics. A system can first receive a media content request from a client device. The media content request can include a user account identifier and a content identifier. The content identifier can be different and separate from the user account identifier and a device identifier associated with the client device, and the content identifier can identify content presented at the client device. Next, the system can store the user account identifier and the content identifier in separate locations without attributing the content identifier to the user account identifier. In response to the media content request, the system can transmit a media content item to the client device based on the user account identifier. The system can also report the content presented at the client device with the content identifier and without the user account identifier.
