Patent Images
1. A method for interacting with a memory device, the method comprising:
- performing the following in a computing device;
in response to a memory device being removably connected with the computing device, registering a cryptographic communication application to be associated with a protocol type in a web browser, wherein the cryptographic communication application is operative to;
(i) receive a message transmitted to the web browser, the message being encapsulated in the protocol type and associated with a cryptographic operation; and
(ii) transmit the message to the memory device to perform the cryptographic operation; and
in response to the memory device being disconnected from the computing device, unregistering the cryptographic communication application from the web browser.

Abstract
A method for interacting with a memory device is provided. In this method, a cryptographic communication application is registered to be associated with a protocol type in a web browser. A message encapsulated in the protocol type from the web browser is received and thereafter transmitted to the memory device. Here, the message is associated with a cryptographic operation.
