摘要： A system and method is provided for refilling a postage metering system that includes a host coupled to a postal security device (PSD). A user enters a first request for postage refill which is transmitted to a meter server. The meter server transmits a request for a PSD audit to the postage metering system. PSD audit data is signed with a first secret key stored in the PSD to produce an audit message that includes a first signature and the PSD audit data. The audit message is transmitted to the meter server which transmits the first signature to a key management system which then verifies the first signature using a second secret key stored in the key management system. The PSD audit data is verified at the meter server which then constructs a second request for meter refill and transmits it to a meter recharging data center. The meter recharging data center generates a refill combination and transmits it to the meter server. The refill combination is transmitted from the meter server to the key management system for signature using the second secret key to produce a refill message that is transmitted to the meter server. The refill message includes a second signature and the refill combination. The refill message is transmitted to the PSD which verifies the signature and the refill combination using the first secret key and credits the PSD for the amount.
摘要翻译：提供了一种系统和方法，用于重新填充包含耦合到邮政安全设备（PSD）的主机的邮资计费系统。用户输入发送到仪表服务器的邮资再填充的第一请求。仪表服务器向邮资计费系统发送PSD审核请求。 PSD审核数据使用存储在PSD中的第一秘密密钥进行签名，以产生包含第一签名和PSD审核数据的审核消息。审计消息被发送到计费服务器，该服务器将第一签名发送到密钥管理系统，密钥管理系统然后使用存储在密钥管理系统中的第二秘密密钥来验证第一签名。 PSD审核数据在仪表服务器上进行验证，然后构建计量器补充的第二个请求，并将其发送到仪表充电数据中心。仪表充电数据中心生成一个重新填充组合并将其传输到仪表服务器。重新填充组合从计量服务器发送到密钥管理系统以使用第二密钥进行签名，以产生发送到计费服务器的补充消息。再填充消息包括第二签名和再填充组合。将补充消息发送到PSD，PSD使用第一秘密密钥验证签名和再填充组合，并将该PSD记入该金额。

摘要： A method for removing postal funds from a postage meter provides an accounting unit of a postage meter with indicium-related information which is invalid for mailing such as invalid origin zip or date. The accounting unit generates a digital signature, which is an encrypted value of the postal funds removed from the postage meter and other postal data including the indicium-related information. The accounting unit through a Host PC sends to a data center the amount of the postal funds removed from the postage meter and the digital signature. The data center verifies that the digital signature has been generated using the indicium-related information. The meter is disabled when the digital signature cannot be verified. When the digital signature is verified a request for a refund is sent by the data center to a postal authority. An example of the indicium-related information is an invalid destination postal code or an invalid origination postal code.

摘要： A method is provided for establishing mutual authentication and secure communications between an microprocessor-based transaction evidencing device and a microprocessor-based server coupled thereto. A session key KS is generated at the transaction evidencing device and encrypted with a first key K1 to form a first message. The first message is sent to the server and decrypted using a second key K2. In response to the first message a second message is generated at the server and encrypted using the session key KS. The encrypted second message is sent to the transaction evidencing device and decrypted using the session key KS. A response to the second message is generated at the transaction evidencing device and is signed using a third key K3. The signed response is encrypted with the session key KS and transmitted to the server. The encrypted signed response is decrypted using the session key KS and the signature is verified using a fourth key k4.

摘要： A method is provided for authenticating an image printed at a predefined print resolution or in accordance with a predetermined print grid. The method includes the steps of scanning the image to produce digital data and segmenting the data into first and second groups corresponding, respectively, to first and second predefined sections of the image. Next, a determination is made concerning the anticipated spatial position of select columns of digital data from each of the first and second groups of data. By examining the data, differences may be identified between the anticipated and actual spatial position of the columns, to determine the authenticity of the image. The identified differences which may include (i) a rotary/linear displacement in the actual spatial position of the select columns. (ii) a change in beat frequency between sections of the image, and/or (iii) a phase shift in a beat frequency. Furthermore, the printed image may include a predefined phase shift introduced at the time of original printing, i.e., a change in spatial separation between adjacent columns of the print grid. The predefined phase shift can be used as a mark to validate the authenticity of the printed image.

摘要： A closed loop postage metering system includes networked meters that provide mailers and/or recipients the capability to request additional or modified services during processing of a mail piece by a carrier. The networked meter allows the Post to charge the mailer, or even the recipient for these services or to provide them with a refund or credit. The services can include changing the processing of the mail piece. Further, the closed loop postage metering system enables more precise methods of paying for services when multiple carriers handle a mail piece. A special case of such multiple carriers handling is the handling of international mail.
