  • a selective call radio receiver 100 (e.g., a pager) comprises an antenna 102 that provides an RF carrier signal that is mixed with a local oscillator signal contained within a receiver module 104.
  • the receiver module 104 generates a recovered signal suitable for processing by a decoder 106 in a manner well known to those skilled in the art.
  • the decoder 106 converts the signal to an address.
  • a controller 112 compares the decoded address with one or more predetermined addresses contained in a memory 108.

In step 208, the selective call receiver 100 checks to verify if the password secured message presentation option is currently enabled.

  • a final pressing of the function key 324 completes the entry or programming of the message retrieving sequence which is then stored by the selective call receiver. In this way, the stored messages are protected from unauthorized users.
  • a user attempting to retrieve a stored message must follow the above delineated steps. Additionally, it may be desirable for the selective call receiver to prompt the user to enter the security code (i.e., same or substantially similar sequence to the previously entered key sequence) and upon entry of the security code, the user will be allowed to access or retrieve the stored messages. In this way, a user has the capability of entering a keyed sequence which forms a security code to protect or prevent unauthorized access to proprietary messages. Furthermore, the user, upon a verified entered security code, can access the stored messages.
  • the security code i.e., same or substantially similar sequence to the previously entered key sequence
  • the above steps are preferred, but after entering the current security code, and subsequent to its verification by the selective call receiver, the user is permitted to change his security code. This preferably occurs by selecting the security icon again which prompts the user to enter a new keyed sequence which will become the next security code.
  • the security code cannot be changed until the user enters the current security code, and subsequent to its verification by the selective call receiver.
  • a user has the capability of customizing his keyed sequence which forms a security code to protect or prevent unauthorized access to proprietary messages.
  • the user may change his security code as frequently as is necessary to maintain a high level of message protection which furthers the prevention of unauthorized accesses to proprietary information.
  • FIGs. 4A and 4B are a flow diagram illustrating the operation of the selective call receiver according to the invention.
  • the power-up sequence is executed when the selective call receiver is "turned-on" (step 402).
  • the selective call receiver Upon completion of the power-up sequence, the selective call receiver goes into a stand-by-mode (step 404). In this mode, the selective call receiver awaits a user entry or response by continually checking if the function key is activated (step 406). The process remains in the stand-by-mode until a key is activated.
  • the operation moves to step 408, which displays a menu of icons.
  • a timer is initialized (step 410), and step 412 determines if a security icon has been selected.
  • step 414 determines if a program bit is "set" (initialized).
  • the program bit is initialized only when a security code (i.e., the key sequence) has been programmed (or stored) within the selective call receiver. In this way, a new selective call receiver, after the user has selected the function key, will offer the user the option to enter a sequence of keys to form a security code for protecting received messages.
  • the program bit would not be initialized because the selective call receiver would not have a security code stored in memory.
  • Initialized refers to a digital one or zero or any other appropriate value depending on the designer's preference.
  • the selective call receiver reads the key inputs (step 416).
  • Step 418 decrements the timer, and step 420 determines if the timer is zero. If zero, the flow transfers to the stand-by-mode (step 404). Alternatively, if the timer is not zero, step 422 determines if the function key is activated. An activated function key signifies that the user has completed the entry of the key sequence.
  • step 416 If the function key is not activated, the process transfers to step 416 that reads the key inputs again. The process repeats itself until the timer reaches zero (step 420) or the function key is activated (step 422). Thus, if the function key is activated, the key inputs are stored in memory (or a code plug) to form the security code. After the security code is stored, the program bit is complemented (initialized), step 426. The program bit ensures that the selective call receiver will not attempt to store another security codes unless the user deliberately selects the change security code. In this way, the user is allowed to enter a key sequence that constitutes a security code for protecting confidential messages.
  • the selective call receiver determines if other icons are selected (step 450), and if yes, the corresponding operation is performed (step 452). Upon completion of this operation, the selective call receiver returns to the stand-by-mode (step 404). Conversely, if no other icons are selected, the timer is decremented (step 454) and step 456 checks if the timer is zero, and if zero, the process again continues to the stand-by-mode (step 404). Alternatively, if the timer is not zero, the control transfers to step 450 where the sequence of steps are repeated as mentioned above until the timer reaches zero, or until an icon is selected (step 450). Thus, when the security icon is selected (step 412),the flow transfers to step 414 where the program bit is checked. As previously discussed, an initialized program bit determines if the selective call receiver has an already stored security code.
  • the selective call receiver further checks if the security icon is again selected (step 428).
  • the user may change the security code by selecting the security icon a second time, after the verified entry of the current security code.
  • the process transfers to step 416.
  • the function key is checked to determine if it was activated (430). An activated function key signifies that the user has completed the entry of the security code.
  • the switch inputs are read (step 432) and checked to determine if the correct sequence was entered (step 434).
  • step 438 Upon verification, if the entry is incorrect, the timer is decremented (step 436) and then the timer is checked for a zero value (step 438). If no, the flow returns to step 432 to read another set of switch inputs (key sequences). In this fashion, the user is allowed a limited opportunity to reenter his key sequence after an incorrectly entered sequence. However, a zero value on the timer (step 438) disables the entry mode which signifies that the opportunity to reenter another security code has expired. Conversely, if at step 434 the key sequence was verified to be correct, the screen status is displayed and access is provided to the stored messages (step 440). The user then is allowed to access and read the stored messages by conventional methods (step 442).
  • this invention provides a method for entering a user customized security code for preventing unauthorized access of sensitive information. Additionally, periodic changes of security code is provided at the user's option for fostering the continued high security on stored messages. However, before changing the present security code, the user must first enter the present security code, and by selecting the security icon, the user is allowed to re-enter a new sequence of keys to be stored as a new security code.
