Electronic documents may be large and have numerous pages, sections and areas of information that are useful to some individuals and not others. It is common for large documents to include some information that is intended for only certain recipients and other information that is intended for other recipients. One example may provide receiving a document including a number of pages, identifying a number of extraction attributes corresponding to various users identified in the document, querying the document for the extraction attributes, and creating a number of new documents corresponding to the extraction attributes.

A system and method are described for preventing security breaches in an IoT system. For example, one embodiment of a system comprises: an Internet of Things (IoT) device comprising a wireless communication module to establish communication with a plurality of IoT hubs over local wireless communication channels; advertising control logic to transmit first advertising beacons to the plurality of IoT hubs of a user indicating that the IoT device is connectable; the advertising control logic to begin transmitting a second advertising beacon to IoT hubs indicating that the IoT device is not connectable if the IoT device establishes a connection with a first IoT hub, the IoT hubs other than the first IoT hub to report the not connectable status of the IoT device to an IoT service; and a connection security module of the IoT service to determine whether the IoT device is connected to any known IoT hub upon receiving the not connectable status from one or more of the IoT hubs; wherein if the connection security module cannot identify a known IoT hub to which the IoT device is connected, then an alert condition is generated.

A system and method are described for validating an IoT device. For example, a method in accordance with one embodiment comprises: generating a first random value to be used as a first offset into a first block of program code of an Internet of Things (IoT) device; transmitting a challenge request message to the IoT device, the challenge request including the first offset or data based on the first offset; receiving a challenge response message transmitted by the IoT device, the challenge response message comprising first authentication data for the first block of IoT device program code; and using the first authentication data to attempt to validate the first block of program code.

Electronic documents may be large and have numerous pages, sections and areas of information that are useful to some individuals and not others. It is common for large documents to include some information that is intended for only certain recipients and other information that is intended for other recipients. One example may provide receiving a document that has a number of pages, identifying an extraction attribute, querying the document for the extraction attribute, applying a coordinate to information associated with the extraction attribute, extracting information based on the extraction attribute and a predefined area associated with the at least one coordinate, and creating a new document including the information extracted.

A system and method are described for establishing secure communication channels. For example, one embodiment of a system includes an IoT device comprising secret/counter processing logic/circuitry to generate a master secret, the master secret to be transmitted to an IoT service. The system may include one or more IoT hubs to receive the master secret from the IoT service over a first secure communication channel. At least one of the IoT hubs can use the master secret to establish a second secure communication channel with the IoT device.

A system and method are described for implementing latched attributes within an IoT system. For example, one embodiment of a method comprises: specifying an attribute for each of a plurality of items of data managed in an Internet of Things (IoT) device and/or an IoT service, at least some of the attributes comprising latched attributes having a current value and an indication of state changes to the latched attribute over a period of time; when an IoT device is unable to connect with the IoT service for a period of time maintaining an indication of any state changes occurring to the latched attribute over the period of time; upon establishing a successful connection between the IoT device and the IoT service after the period of time, transmitting the indication of state changes of the latched attribute from the IoT device to the IoT service; and analyzing the indication of state changes to determine whether to generate an alert condition on the IoT service.

A hosted system receives a request for the delivery of a voice message from a collective such as a school district. The hosted system determines whether the message should be sent over a telephone line at the hosted system or the school district. Instructions are sent to a delivery mechanism at the determined location indicating how to prepare the message and the number to be called. In one embodiment, the instructions are in XML script form to reduce the bandwidth required. Having the hosted system determine the allocation of messages allows for both the efficient use and lower calling cost of any available capacity on telephone lines at a school district or other collective organization, as well as the larger capacity access to telephone lines of a hosted service for quick delivery of numerous or urgent messages.
