    Abstract: A system, comprising an authentication module to generate a challenge to authenticate a user, the challenge to be distributed to members of a set of verifying parties; and grant the user access to a resource upon receiving an authenticating response to the challenge; and a combiner module to receive partial responses from members of the set of verifying parties upon verification of the user by each member, the verification made using a provided contextual identifier of the user; based on the partial responses reaching a threshold number of responses, combine the partial responses to obtain a combined response, and provide the combined response to the authentication module as an authenticating response to the challenge.

    Abstract: In an example, a method includes receiving a signed message generated by a computing device associated with a private key and a public key. The signed message includes an input message signed with the private key. The method further includes generating, using processing circuitry, a candidate public key based on the input message and the signed message using a public key recovery procedure. The method further includes determining the public key associated with the computing device based on an indication as to whether or not the candidate public key corresponds to the public key associated with the computing device.

    Abstract: A method of operating a service provider server and a computing device to provide anonymous service access. For the service provider server, the method comprises: receiving a service message from a computing device; and determining whether to send a service response message, and if so sending a service response message. The service message includes a pseudonym associated with the computing device, service data and a signature on the pseudonym generated by either the service provider server or an identity manager. The service response message is broadcast by the service provider server or transmitted to the identity manager.

    Abstract: In an example, a method of encryption is described to include generation of a content encryption key and a key encryption key. In that example, the content encryption key is wrapped based on a key wrap operation using the key encryption key and the wrapped content encryption key is encrypted using a policy encryption key. Further in that example, the policy encryption key is encrypted using a public key corresponding to a print apparatus. In an example, a method of decryption is described. The example method of decryption performs recovery of a policy object using a private key corresponding to a print apparatus. In that example, the policy object includes a wrapped key that is unwrapped using a key encryption key to recover a content encryption key usable to decrypt an encrypted electronic document.

    Abstract: A system and method for authentication are described herein. An authentication request is received at a combiner proxy (350). The combiner proxy (350), is arranged to receive a user authentication request, receive one or more share values from one or more communications devices (330A, . . . , 330N) where each of the communications devices (330A, . . . 330N) stores at least one share value of a set of share values and determine if one or more share values that have been received from the communications devices (330A, . . . , 330N) meet a quantitative criteria. The combiner proxy (350) is arranged to authenticate the user if the received share values meet the quantitative criteria.

    Abstract: In an example, a method includes pairing a first electronic device and a data relay apparatus associated with a second electronic device to establish a secure wireless communication link therebetween. Each of the first electronic device and the data relay apparatus may be associated with an identifier and a verifier, each verifier being to verify the identifier of the other of the first electronic device or data relay apparatus. The pairing may include mutual verification of an identifier using the verifier, establishing shared key data and using the shared key data to establish a shared secret value for use in determining a derived key.
