First Claim
1. A decryption system for decrypting user information encrypted on a storage device associated with an identity document of a user, the system comprising:
- a server configured to collect user identity document data from the user and to construct a token comprising the user identity document data, wherein the server is further configured to send the token to a mobile device associated with the user for storing the token at the mobile device and wherein the mobile device is physically separate from said storage device;
a key construction unit communicatively coupled to a machine reader configured to read the data from the token by radio frequency identification communication with the mobile device,wherein the token further comprises user identification information and in particular in which the reader is further configured to read the user identification information from the token and wherein the key construction unit uses the user identity document data read from the token, stored on the mobile device, to construct a key for decrypting the user information stored on said storage device;
a comparator for comparing the user identification information read from the token stored on the mobile device and the user information decrypted from said storage device associated with the user identity document; and
authentication means for authenticating the user depending upon the result of the comparison.

Abstract
A decryption system for decrypting user identification information encrypted on a storage device associated with a user identity document is disclosed. The system comprises: a server configured to collect user identity document data from the user and to construct a token including the user identity document data encoded in a machine readable form; a key construction unit communicatively coupled to a reader configured to read the data from the token and configured to read the data encoded on the storage device. The key construction unit uses the user identity document data read from the token to construct a key which enables the identity document reader to decrypt the user identification information stored on the storage device.

12. A token generating system for generating a boarding pass and comprising:
-
a server configured to collect user identity document data and user identification information from a user and to construct a boarding pass token including the user identity document data and user identification information encoded in a machine readable form wherein the server is configured to generate the token having the data encoded on or within a predetermined region and the data comprises a user identity document number and an expiry date of the user identity document and preferably the user'"'"'s date of birth, wherein the system is further configured to send the token to a mobile device associated with a user for storing the token on the mobile device; and wherein; a storage device, separate from the mobile device, configured to store encrypted user information associated with the user identity document; a key construction unit communicatively coupled to a machine reader configured to read data from the token stored on the mobile device associated with the user by radio frequency identification communication with the mobile device and wherein the key construction unit further uses the user identity document data read from the token to construct a key for decrypting the user information encrypted on said storage device; a comparator for comparing the user identification information read from the token stored on the mobile device and the user information decrypted from said storage device associated with the user identity document; and authentication means for authenticating the user depending upon the result of the comparison.

13. A decryption system for decrypting user information encrypted on a storage device associated with an identity document of a user, the system comprising:
-
a machine reader configured to read data from a token stored on a mobile device associated with the user by radio frequency identification communication with the mobile device, the token including user identity document data encoded in a machine readable form, and the reader configured to read the data encoded on the storage device, wherein the mobile device is physically separate from said storage device and wherein a server is first configured to collect the user identity document data and user identification information from the user and to construct the token comprising the user identity document data and subsequently send the token to the mobile device for storing the token on the mobile device; a key construction unit configured to derive a key from the user identity document data encoded on or within the token, stored on the mobile device, which enables the reader to decrypt the user information stored on the storage device; a comparator for comparing the data read from the token stored on the mobile device and the user information decrypted from said storage device associated with the user identity document; and authentication means for authenticating the user depending upon the result of the comparison. - View Dependent Claims (14)
