Abstract: A user inputting his access code (e.g., PIN or password) into an computing environment to access a transaction is at risk of losing the access code to an attacker who has physical or electronic access to the computing environment. To minimize this risk, the access code can be entered via a plurality of user-selectable fields, each of which takes on a series of values, the initially displayed values of which are established in a random or otherwise unpredictable manner. The user then uses a mouse, keyboard, or other input device to increment each of the selectable fields until the access code is correctly entered. Because of the randomization of the initial state, an attacker tracking the locations or number of mouse clicks or other navigation actions can not determine the finally entered access code by, e.g., computing an offset from a known initial state.

Abstract: The invention relates to a method for using standardised bank services via the mobile radiotelephone service. Data transmission between a bank server and a mobile station is based on the HBCI transmission method. The problem is that the HBCI protocol which is designed for the internet is too extensive for a direct projection to the contemporary mobile radiotelephone world. The invention is characterised in that a HBCI gateway is connected in the transmission path between the bank server and the mobile station. Said gateway carries out a transformation between the HBCI transmission method which is used by the bank and the transmission method which is used by the mobile radiotelephone service.

Abstract: Methods for integrating an authored DVD system and a WWW web browser are described. Universal Resource Locator (URL) information corresponding to sites accessible by the browser is stored in fields within the DVD data. When a user actuates a DVD element that has a corresponding URL, the web browser displays information from that site. When the user actuates an HTML menu or other browser-implemented feature, the DVD system accesses a portion of the DVD data specified in the menu. This arrangement provides for two-way communication, i.e., HTML in the browser is able to control DVD content and vice-versa. Having the WWW information embedded in the DVD brings a number of benefits, the foremost of which is the ability to write a one size fits all template web page that can interrogate the DVD for URL information and present WWW content corresponding to the URL synchronized with the DVD information.
