Abstract

The invention relates to an NFC-enabled devices to store and retrieve portable application-specific personal information for use with computational platforms. A method of providing, over a near-field communications link, portable application-specific personal information to a web-based application, includes storing a list of at least one web-based application, storing at least one set of credentials in a corresponding at least one memory region within an NFC-enabled device, each set of credentials associated with a corresponding web-based application from the list of web-based applications, disposing the NFC-enabled device within a near-field operational range of a computational platform, near-field communicating the list of web-based applications to the computational platform, and near-field communicating the plurality of sets of credentials to the computational platform. Alternative methods further include one or more of communicating commands to a near-field coupled computational platform, storing sets of cookies, and communicating sets of cookies to a near-field coupled computational platform. Commands may include reset the computational platform, restart the computational platform, perform a virus scan, and perform a malware scan.

Description

technical field [0001] The present invention generally relates to near field communication (NFC) devices and their operation and applications. More specifically, the present invention relates to methods and apparatus for storing and retrieving portable application-specific personal information for use by a computing platform using an NFC communication device. Background technique [0002] Advances in semiconductor production technology have resulted in dramatic increases in circuit packing density and higher operating speeds. Consequently, these advances have enabled designers to create many processor and communication functions that were not possible before. In some cases, these functions are combined in a single highly integrated device. In other cases, these functions are divided among more than two devices and chips. [0003] Advances in digital system architectures, coupled with improvements in the speed and density of semiconductors, have made it possible to impleme...
