摘要： Methods and systems that protect the privacy of signatures on envelopes containing ballots sent through the mail are provided. The envelope for returning ballots by mail includes an electronic optical shutter that covers an opening in the flap of the envelope. The voter signs the back of the envelope in an area that will be visible through the opening in the flap (covered by the optical shutter) when the envelope flap is sealed. The optical shutter is opaque under static conditions, but will become transparent when power is supplied to it. When the envelope flap is sealed and no power is applied to the optical shutter, the voter's signature will be concealed by the optical shutter. Upon receipt at the registrar's office, the optical shutter can be powered, thereby rendering the optical shutter transparent, and the voter's signature can be viewed.

摘要： Methods and systems that provide privacy of signatures on envelopes containing ballots are provided. The envelope for returning ballots includes a flap with a window that aligns with a signature area on the envelope. The window appears opaque under normal lighting conditions, but appears transparent when illuminated with light having a predetermined wavelength. A movable signature stub is positioned on top of the signature area. The voter signs the back of the envelope on the signature stub, thereby imprinting a signature on the signature area by transferring a material from the signature stub to the signature area, and moves the signature stub. The flap of the envelope is then sealed, thereby covering the voter's signature in the signature area with the window of the envelope flap. To read the signature, light having the predetermined wavelength can be directed onto the window, thereby rendering the window transparent and the signature visible.

摘要： A signature scheme is provided in which a message is divided into a first portion which is hidden and is recovered during verification, and a second portion which is visible and is required as input to the verification algorithm. A first signature component is generated by encrypting the first portion alone. An intermediate component is formed by combining the first component and the visible portion and cryptographically hashing them. A second signature component is then formed using the intermediate component and the signature comprises the first and second components with the visible portion. A verification of the signature combines a first component derived only from the hidden portion of the message with the visible portion and produces a hash of the combination. The computed hash is used together with publicly available information to generate a bit string corresponding to the hidden portion. If the required redundancy is present the signature is accepted and the message reconstructed from the recovered bit string and the visible portion.
摘要翻译：提供了一种签名方案，其中消息被分成在验证期间被隐藏并被恢复的第一部分，以及作为验证算法的输入可见并被要求的第二部分。通过单独加密第一部分来产生第一签名组件。通过组合第一组件和可见部分并对其进行密码散列来形成中间组件。然后使用中间部件形成第二签名部件，并且签名包括具有可见部分的第一和第二部件。签名的验证将仅从消息的隐藏部分导出的第一组件与可见部分组合，并产生组合的散列。所计算的散列与公开可用的信息一起使用以产生对应于隐藏部分的位串。如果存在所需的冗余，则签名被接受，并且从恢复的位串和可见部分重建消息。

摘要： A method includes assigning a respective document tracking identifier to each of a plurality of documents. The documents are required for a college admission application. The user is allowed to register, with a central computer, as an applicant for college admissions in connection with the college admission application. The document tracking identifiers are associated with the user. It is detected whether or not the documents are handled by a document delivery service. A report is made to the user, via the central computer, as to at least some data obtained from the detecting step.

摘要： A method for printing secure source images of the type that contain specific critical elements and non-secure images on a single printer includes determining the origin of an image (secure source or non-secure source). If the image to be printed is from the non-secure source, a determination is made if the image contains the specific critical elements of the type contained in secure source images. Printing of the image from the non-secure source is disabled if the image contains specific critical elements of the type contained in secure source images. Printing of the image from a non-secure source is enabled if the image does not contain specific critical elements of the type contained in the secure image. The determination if the non-secure source image contains the specific critical elements of the type contained in secure source images can be made after printing has commenced of the non-secure image.
摘要翻译：用于在单个打印机上打印包含特定关键元素和非安全图像的类型的安全源图像的方法包括确定图像的来源（安全源或非安全源）。如果要打印的图像来自非安全源，则确定图像是否包含安全源图像中包含的类型的特定关键元素。如果图像包含安全源图像中包含的类型的特定关键元素，则禁用从非安全源打印图像。如果图像不包含安全图像中包含的类型的特定关键元素，则会启用来自非安全源的映像的打印。如果非安全源图像包含安全源图像中包含的类型的特定关键元素，则可以在非安全图像的打印开始之后进行确定。
