In embodiments, an authentication server interfaces between a user device with a self-signed certificate and a verifying computer that accepts a user name and password. The user device generates a self-signed certificate signed by a private key on the user device. The self-signed certificate is transmitted to a verifying party computer over a network. The verifying party stores the self-signed certificate with user identification data. The user migrates trust to another device by providing the root certificate and intermediate certificate as a certificate chain to a second device, which then adds a new intermediate certificate to create a longer certificate chain with the same root certificate. In subsequent communications, the verifying party receives a certificate chain including the self-signed certificate from the second user device, and matches that with the user identification data stored in a database.

User authentication with self-signed certificate and identity verification and migration

In embodiments, an authentication server interfaces between a user device with a self-signed certificate and a verifying computer that accepts a user name and password. The user device generates a self-signed certificate signed by a private key on the user device. The self-signed certificate is transmitted to a verifying party computer over a network. The verifying party stores the self-signed certificate with user identification data, including at least one of a user name, user address, user email, user phone number, user tax ID, user social security number and user financial account number. In subsequent communications, the verifying party receives a certificate chain including the self-signed certificate, and matches that with the user identification data stored in a database.

User authentication with self-signed certificate and identity verification

Embodiments include a vehicle turntable comprising a central hub communicatively coupled to a control unit for receiving control signals; a plurality of wedge-shaped panels radially coupled to the central hub so as to form a circular surface; a plurality of wheels coupled to a number of the plurality of panels; and at least one motor configured to drive a corresponding one of the plurality of wheels and to receive the control signals from the central hub. Embodiments also include a system comprising a first turntable hub configured to control operation of a first turntable; and a control unit communicatively coupled to the first turntable hub to provide control signals to the first turntable hub.

In embodiments, an authentication server interfaces between a user device with a self-signed certificate and a verifying computer that accepts a user name and password. The user device generates a self-signed certificate signed by a private key on the user device. The self-signed certificate is transmitted to a verifying party computer over a network. The verifying party stores the self-signed certificate with user identification data, including at least one of a user name, user address, user email, user phone number, user tax identification (ID), user social security number and user financial account number. In subsequent communications, the verifying party receives a certificate chain including the self-signed certificate, and matches that with the user identification data stored in a database.

In embodiments, an authentication server interfaces between a user device with a self-signed certificate and a verifying computer that accepts a user name and password. The user device generates a self-signed certificate signed by a private key on the user device. The self-signed certificate is transmitted to a verifying party computer over a network. A redirecting module redirects the self-signed certificate chain to an authentication server. The authentication server is also provided a user name, password and verifying computer address, which is stored in a password database by the authentication server, in association with the self-signed certificate. Subsequent communications intended for the verifying computer with the self-signed certificate are redirected to the authentication server, which looks up the associated user name and password and transmits the associated user name and password to the verifying computer.

Legacy authentication for user authentication with self-signed certificate and identity verification

In a method for controlling physical access to a computing device a first access request to a room containing the computing device is received. In response, a processor determines that the first access request is valid based on the room and the date and time of the first access request and unlocks a door to the room to permit entry to the room. Subsequently, a second access request to a cabinet that is located in the room and contains the computing device is received. In response, a processor determines that the second access request is valid based on the cabinet and the date and time of the second access request and unlocks the cabinet to permit access to the computing device.

Physical access request authorization

The invention provides methods for detecting elevated levels of phospholipase A.sub.2 activating protein in persons suspected of having rheumatoid arthritis to thereby indicate the presence of rheumatoid arthritis in the person comprising the steps of providing a sample of body fluid or tissue from said person; contacting the sample with an antibody specific for phospholipase A.sub.2 activating protein such that the antibody binds with phospholipase A.sub.2 activating protein in the sample; detecting the antibody thereby indicating the presence of phospholipase A.sub.2 activating protein, whereby elevated levels of phospholipase A.sub.2 activating protein in the sample as compared with levels found in persons not having rheumatoid arthritis indicates the presence of rheumatoid arthritis in the person. Kits and reagents for detecting rheumatoid arthritis are also provided.

DNA encoding phospholipase activating protein

The invention provides methods for detecting elevated levels of phospholipase A.sub.2 activating protein in persons suspected of having rheumatiod arthritis to thereby indicate the presence of rheumatoid arthritis in the person comprising the steps of providing a sample of body fluid or tissue from said person; contacting the sample with an antibody specific for phospholipase A.sub.2 activating protein such that the antibody binds with phospholipase A.sub.2 activating protein in the sample; detecting the antibody thereby indicating the presence of phospholipase A.sub.2 activating protein, whereby elevated levels of phospholipase A.sub.2 activating protein in the sample as compared with levels found in persons not having rheumatoid arthritis indicates the presence of rheumatoid arthritis in the person. Kits and reagents for detecting rheumatoid arthritis are also provided.
