Methods in OMA SEC_CF for providing security services to traffic over UDP between a client and a server and the relevant entities are provided. A pre-shared key is pre-shared between the client and the server. A pair of IPSec ESP SAs between the client and the server is established without shared key negotiation, wherein traffic data cryptographic algorithms are determined. Traffic data security keys are derived from the pre-shared key via the determined traffic data cryptographic algorithms. Then, data of the traffic can be provided with security services with the traffic data security keys through use of IPSec ESP.

A computing device to enable a feature thereof according to a current location and a control method thereof, the computing device including: a location unit to determine the current location of the computing device; and a licensing unit to determine whether the current location corresponds to a predetermined authorized location, and to enable the feature if the current location corresponds to the authorized location. Accordingly, a permission to use a software feature or a hardware feature of the computing device can be controlled according to the current location of the computing device.

The administration of protection of data on a client mobile computing device by a server computer system such as within an enterprise network or on a separate mobile computing device is described. Security tools are described that provide different security policies to be enforced based on a location associated with a network environment in which a mobile device is operating. Methods for detecting the location of the mobile device are described. Additionally, the security tools may also provide for enforcing different policies based on security features. Examples of security features include the type of connection, wired or wireless, over which data is being transferred, the operation of anti-virus software, or the type of network adapter card. The different security policies provide enforcement mechanisms that may be tailored based upon the detected location and / or active security features associated with the mobile device. Examples of enforcement mechanisms are adaptive port blocking, file hiding and file encryption.

A system and method for remote asset management is described which can provide the basis for a diverse product group including an improved remote location monitoring system, a means for communicating with and for monitoring the status and or location of a plurality of diverse assets, as well as the means for communicating with said assets for the purpose of modifying the operational status of one or more of said assets according to one or more stored data parameters such as location, use, battery power, and such like. The remote asset management system comprises a wireless module, which is associated with at least one of the plurality of asset and which is interfaced with the operating system of said assert and or with an electromechanical control means, which may control one or more features of the operation of said assets. A supporting network-based, or internet-based service platform, controls and manages the status of each of the plurality of assets, either automatically, or in response to received messages from fixed or wireless communication devices, and which is capable of selectively communicating data to said assets for changing the operational status of said assets according to pre-programmed conditions.

A method, and an apparatus performing the method, is provided by authenticating a mobile device communicably connectable to a wireless network by an authentication parameter from a secure transaction server (STS), as a mobile device authenticator; providing an STS correlation between a personal identification entry (PIE) and the mobile device authenticator; and inputting, by a user, the PIE and a provider action, to the mobile device authenticator to transmit a transformed secure user authenticable authorization request to the STS over the wireless network to authorize an action with a provider.
