CROSS PLATFORM CREDENTIAL SHARING - A simplified explanation of the abstract
This abstract first appeared for US patent application 17952126 titled 'CROSS PLATFORM CREDENTIAL SHARING
Simplified Explanation
The patent application is about devices and components that allow for sharing a credential to access a secured entity between two devices, even if they are running on different platforms.
- The patent application focuses on sharing a credential for accessing a secured entity between an origination device and a recipient device.
- The sharing of the credential can be done cross-platform, meaning the recipient device can have a different operating system or platform than the origination device.
- The invention includes apparatus, systems, and methods to facilitate this sharing process.
Potential Applications
- This technology can be applied in various industries where secure access to entities is required, such as banking, healthcare, and government sectors.
- It can be used in mobile devices, computers, and other electronic devices that require secure access to sensitive information.
- The technology can be integrated into software applications, operating systems, or security systems to enhance credential sharing capabilities.
Problems Solved
- The technology solves the problem of sharing credentials between devices that may have different platforms or operating systems.
- It provides a secure and efficient method for sharing credentials, reducing the need for manual input or synchronization between devices.
- The invention ensures that the shared credentials are protected and only accessible by authorized devices.
Benefits
- The technology simplifies the process of sharing credentials, making it more convenient for users.
- It enhances security by providing a secure method for sharing credentials between devices.
- The cross-platform capability allows for seamless sharing between devices with different operating systems, improving interoperability.
Original Abstract Submitted
The present application relates to devices and components including apparatus, systems, and methods to share a credential for accessing a secured entity between an origination device and a recipient device. In some embodiments, the sharing may be cross platform where the recipient device executes a different platform than the origination device.
