Device for monitoring and protecting the power supply of electrical equipment and method for implementing said device [FR2941572] Issued

International patents UE, US, South korea, Japon, China

The invention relates to a device for monitoring and protecting the electrical power supply of electrical equipment enabling faults occurring in the power supply to be identified and logged in order to identify their cause and, if appropriate, the persons responsible. The invention also relates to a method for implementing such a device.
Current electrical and electronic systems—such as computers, for example—are formed from a number of interconnected devices and powered from the mains supply through a stabilised power supply that provides each device (motherboard, processor, disks, etc.) with a power source that is adapted to its characteristics with regard to voltage, current, etc.

Segmented key authentication system [FR3063365] Issued

International patents UE, US, South Korea, Japon, China, Algeria 

An authentication system to authenticate at least one application accessible by a user via a computer for which access is controlled by an authentication datum includes a main mobile device and a main token in which the authentication datum is recorded. The main mobile device is configured to recover the authentication datum of the main token using a pairing key that is segmented into a plurality of segments. A first segment is recorded on the main mobile device and at least one additional segment is recorded on a secondary mobile device and/or a secondary token. The main mobile device is configured to recover the additional segment or segments in order to reconstitute the pairing key and to present the reconstituted pairing key to the main token.
