A method for securely connecting to a remote server that provides improved Internet security. In the method, a client receives a request to connect to a remote server associated with a domain name. The client, when resolving the domain name, determines whether the remote server supports at least one predetermined IP layer security protocol. The client performs a key exchange protocol with the remote server to generate at least one shared secret in response to determining that the remote server supports the at least one predetermined IP layer security protocol. The client connects to the remote server using the at least one shared secret in the IP layer security protocol.

Aspects may relate to performing an Internet Key Exchange (IKE) to create an IPsec security association (SA) between a first device and a second device based upon both an authentication header (AH) and an encapsulating security payload (ESP), free of creating a child security association. Information exchange may then be allowed between the first device and the second device based upon the IPsec SA.

Internet key exchange (IKE) for secure association between devices

Apparatus, system and method for authenticating a device for secure network communication. Identification data is configured as a hash of a public key for identifying at least one of the device and/or a user associated with the device. An Internet Protocol (IP) message may be generated, wherein an IP source address in the IP message includes the identification data. The device may register with a server by transmitting the IP message and the public key and subsequently generate and transmit a second IP message, wherein an IP source address of the second IP message includes the identification data. The server may issue a challenge to the device in response to the second IP message, wherein the challenge is based at least in part on the identification data. After receiving the challenge, the device may transmit response data to the server for authenticating the device for secure network communication.

System, apparatus and method for generating dynamic IPV6 addresses for secure authentication

Various aspects of the present disclosure provide the concept of a wireless docking profile, which may be standardized across a number of vendors, such that a common standard defining minimum sets of peripherals can be shared by dockees and docking hosts to simplify connection setup and negotiation. Further aspects of the disclosure provide a docking procedure that may be utilized to establish a docking connection between the dockee and the docking host to utilize such a docking profile. Other aspects, embodiments, and features are also claimed and described.

System and method for wireless docking utilizing a wireless docking profile

This disclosure describes a method of establishing a bi-directional user interface back channel (UIBC) to a computing device, receiving encapsulated peripheral data from the computing device using the UIBC, and decapsulating the peripheral data, as well as a method of establishing a bi-directional user interface back channel (UIBC) to a computing device, receiving peripheral data, encapsulating the peripheral data, and transmitting the encapsulated peripheral data to the computing device using the UIBC.

System method for bi-directional tunneling via user input back channel (UIBC) for wireless displays

Aspects of this disclosure relate to data transfer. In an example, aspects of this disclosure include a method that includes generating, at a host device, a Universal Serial Bus (USB) redirect configuration request for establishing a connection between a first USB device connected to a USB hub and a second USB device connected to the USB hub, wherein the connection between the first USB device and the second USB device does not include the host device. The method also includes requesting, after the connection between the first USB device and the second USB device has been established, data to be routed from the first USB device to the second USB device via the USB hub.
