Abstract:

A connection between a monitoring device and a remote user is accomplished securely over the Internet by using a communication channel with public/private key encryption to connect the two locations and by performing authentication of a user at the local monitoring device rather than at a device server at the remote location, thereby effectively removing the device server as vulnerable point for attack. In particular, when a remote user attempts to log in, via a web browser or interactive telephone system, the encrypted channel is established using the public/private key of the device and the device server proxies the log-in request to the monitored device. The device itself is then responsible for granting or denying access.

Abstract:

A system and method of interactive, location-based presentation and advertising that enables users with wireless network addressable communications devices to control multi-media content on network addressable screens and enables marketers to track, monitor and respond to users interactions in real time. A Proxy Gateway directs a network addressable client PC, connected to a digital display, to serve local content or pull content from one or more web servers. A wireless, network addressable device, typically a mobile phone, is used to communicate commands to the physically remote Proxy Gateway. The Proxy Gateway bridges between the communications device and the display by interpreting the commands from the communications device, forwarding them to the client PC which may pull content from the appropriate web server, or display native message content.
