File sharing with a hostile system
Jul 5, 2007 - BlackBerry Limited
a storage device storing a first file and a second file;
a network connectivity device for connecting the mobile device to a remote system;
a user interface configurable to detect selection of the first file stored on the storage device and to detect selection of a type of access by the remote system as read/write or read-only; and
a file system created responsive to selection of the first file to contain an access information for the first file and not the second file, the file system comprising at least one of a file allocation table (FAT) file system, a file allocation table-32 (FAT-32) file system, a New Technology File System (NTFS), a second extended (Ext2) file system, a third extended (Ext3) file system, and a UNIX file system (UFS);
wherein when the mobile device is connected to the remote system via the network connectivity device, the remote system can only access the first file as read/write or read-only as designated by the user using the access information in the file system and the remote system only has knowledge of the selected one or more files including the first file.
2. The mobile device file sharing system of claim 1, wherein the storage device is a removable memory card.
3. The mobile device file sharing system of claim 1, wherein the network connectivity device communicates using a universal serial bus protocol, a firewire protocol, or an RS-232 serial protocol.
5. The mobile device file sharing system of claim 1, wherein the user interface is configured to detect selection of the first file and a third file stored on the storage device, wherein the file system is created responsive to selection of the first file and the third file and wherein the file system further contains an access information for the third file.
6. The mobile device file sharing system of claim 5, wherein two of the first file, the second file, and the third file on the storage device are stored under one or more directories.
7. The mobile device file sharing system of claim 6, wherein the user interface is enabled for the selection of a directory on the storage device such that when the mobile device is connected to the remote system via the network connectivity device, the remote system can only access the selected directory.
8. A method for mobile device file sharing comprising:
storing a first file and a second file on a storage device;
connecting the mobile device to a remote system via a network connectivity device;
detecting, via a user interface, selection of the first file stored on the storage device and detecting selection of a type of access by the remote system as read/write or read-only; and
creating a file system responsive to selection of the first file to contain an access information for the first file and not the second file, the file system comprising at least one of a file allocation table (FAT) file system, a file allocation table-32 (FAT-32) file system, a New Technology File System (NTFS), a second extended (Ext2) file system, a third extended (Ext3) file system, and a UNIX file system (UFS);
9. The method for mobile device file sharing of claim 8, wherein the storage device is a removable memory card.
10. The method for mobile device file sharing of claim 8, wherein the network connectivity device communicates using a universal serial bus protocol, a firewire protocol, or an RS-232 serial protocol.
11. The method for mobile device file sharing of claim 8, wherein the network connectivity device comprises a wireless connection.
12. The method for mobile device file sharing of claim 8, further comprising detecting selection, by the user interface, of the first file and a third file stored on the storage device, wherein the file system is created responsive to selection of the first file and the third file and wherein the file system further contains an access information for the third file.
13. The method for mobile device file sharing of claim 12, wherein two of the first file, the second file, and the third file on the storage device are stored under one or more directories.
14. The method for mobile device file sharing system of claim 13, further comprising selecting, by the user interface, a directory on the storage device such that when the mobile device is connected to the remote system via the network connectivity device, the remote system can only access the selected directory.
15. A non-transitory computer readable medium comprising instructions that when executed by a processor of a mobile device cause the processor to:
store a first file and a second file on a storage device;
connect the mobile device to a remote system via a network connectivity device;
detect, via a user interface, selection of the first file stored on the storage device and detect selection of a type of access by the remote system as read/write or read-only; and
create a file system responsive to selection of the first file to contain an access information for the first file and not the second file, the file system comprising at least one of a file allocation table (FAT) file system, a file allocation table-32 (FAT-32) file system, a New Technology File System (NTFS), a second extended (Ext2) file system, a third extended (Ext3) file system, and a UNIX file system (UFS);
16. The non-transitory computer readable medium of claim 15, wherein the network connectivity device communicates using a universal serial bus protocol, a firewire protocol, or an RS-232 serial protocol.
17. The non-transitory computer readable medium of claim 15, wherein the network connectivity device comprises a wireless connection.
18. The non-transitory computer readable medium of claim 15, further comprising the detect selection, by the user interface, of the first file and a third file stored on the storage device, wherein the file system is created responsive to selection of the first file and the third file and wherein the file system further contains an access information for the third file.
19. The non-transitory computer readable medium of claim 18, wherein two of the first file, the second file, and the third file on the storage device are stored under one or more directories.
20. The non-transitory computer readable medium of claim 19, further comprising selection, by the user interface, of a directory on the storage device such that when the mobile device is connected to the remote system via the network connectivity device, the remote system can only access the selected directory.
