DEVICE, METHOD, AND SYSTEM FOR CONTROLLING ACCESS TO WEB OBJECTS OF A WEBPAGE OR WEB-BROWSER APPLICATION

摘要

A method and device for securely displaying web content with secure web objects across untrusted channels includes downloading web content from a web server. The web content includes tags that a web browser uses to authenticate the current user and identify encrypted web objects packaged in the web content. The computing device authenticates the current user using a biometric recognition procedure. If the current user is authenticated and determined to be authorized to view the decrypted web object, the encrypted web object is decrypted and displayed to the user. If the user is unauthenticated, the encrypted web object is displayed in place of the encrypted web object such that the decrypted web object is displayed for only authorized persons physically present at the computing device. The biometric recognition procedure and web object decryption processes are protected through secure media path circuitry and secure memory.
