Patent number: 11973745Abstract: The techniques herein are directed generally to a “zero-knowledge” data management network. Users are able to share verifiable proof of data and/or identity information, and businesses are able to request, consume, and act on the data—all without a data storage server or those businesses ever seeing or having access to the raw sensitive information (where server-stored data is viewable only by the intended recipients, which may even be selected after storage). In one embodiment, source data is encrypted with a source encryption key (e.g., source public key), with a rekeying key being an encrypting combination of a source decryption key (e.g., source private key) and a recipient's public key. Without being able to decrypt the data, the storage server can use the rekeying key to re-encrypt the source data with the recipient's public key, to then be decrypted only by the corresponding recipient using its private key, accordingly.Type: GrantFiled: December 4, 2019Date of Patent: April 30, 2024Assignee: Journey.aiInventors: Brett Shockley, Alexander John Shockley, Michael Joseph Frendo, Shmuel Shaffer, Kenneth Keiter, James M.

Patent number: 11743255Abstract: The techniques herein are directed generally to providing access control and identity verification for communications when initiating a communication from an entity to be verified. In one embodiment an initiating device initiates a communication to a receiving device on a communication channel, wherein the receiving device is configured to determine whether an identity associated with the initiating device is verified by a verification service. The initiating device verifies the identity through a verification service client application on the initiating device, and conveys, to the verification service over a verification channel, that the identity associated with the initiating device is verified, wherein the verification service conveys, to the receiving device over the verification channel, that the identity is verified.Type: GrantFiled: April 29, 2020Date of Patent: August 29, 2023Assignee: Journey.aiInventors: Shmuel Shaffer, Yolanda Schwartz, Alexander John Shockley

Patent number: 11736445Abstract: The techniques herein are directed generally to personalized secure communication session management, such as for virtual private networks (VPNs). In one embodiment, a user is authenticated at a client device to verify that the user is present at the client device and authorized to access one or more secured resources, and in response, a secure communication session is established for the client device to access the secured resources. At a later time during the secure communication session, it is determined whether the user is still authenticated at the client device, such that if so, access to the one or more secured resources is maintained on the secure communication session, or else access is restricted to the one or more secured resources (e.g., the session is terminated, or access is otherwise limited).Type: GrantFiled: March 12, 2021Date of Patent: August 22, 2023Assignee: Journey.aiInventors: Michael Joseph Frendo, Robert Taylor Bartlett, Alexander John Shockley, James M.

Patent number: 11695767Abstract: The techniques herein are directed generally to providing access control and persona validation for interactions. In one embodiment, a method for a first device comprises: interacting with a second device on a communication channel; determining, over a verification channel with a verification service, that an identity of a user communicating on the second device is a verified identity according to the verification service; determining a persona of the user; querying a third-party entity to make a determination whether the persona is validated and to correspondingly determine a current privilege level; and managing interaction with the second device according to the determination whether the persona is validated and the corresponding current privilege level. Another embodiment comprises a verification server's perspective of facilitating the interaction between the first and second devices, where the verification server queries the third-party entity to validate the persona.Type: GrantFiled: August 28, 2020Date of Patent: July 4, 2023Assignee: Journey.aiInventors: Shmuel Shaffer, Yolanda Schwartz, Alexander John Shockley, Moni Manor, James M.
