MUMBAI, India, Oct. 26 -- Intellectual Property India has published a patent application (202611113184 A) filed by Abhay Chaudhary on September 22, 2026, for Method And System For Offline-Authorised Consumption Of A Shared Server-Held Quota By Disconnected Untrusted Devices.
Inventor includes Abhay Chaudhary.
The application for the patent was published on October 23, 2026, under issue no. 43/2026.
Abstract: A server holding a shared quota issues to each of a plurality of untrusted client devices a signed lease bounding the quantity, period and scope within which that device may authorise consumption while disconnected. The server maintains the invariant that the sum of the bounds of all outstanding unexpired leases does not exceed the uncommitted balance, whereby maximum aggregate over-consumption is bounded by a quantity chosen in advance and holds even if every device is compromised. Each device evaluates a compiled, versioned and signed policy representation in canonical deterministic form, emitting for each decision a receipt recording the inputs, the policy version, the outcome, a hardware counter value and a hash of the preceding receipt, signed by a non-extractable key held in a secure element. Upon reconnection the server verifies the chain, independently re-evaluates each decision, classifies any divergence and applies a corresponding resolution.
