Patent number: 11887404Abstract: Techniques and systems are provided for authenticating a user of a device. For example, input biometric data associated with a person can be obtained. A similarity score for the input biometric data can be determined by comparing the input biometric data to a set of templates that include reference biometric data associated with the user. The similarity score can be compared to an authentication threshold. The person is authenticated as the user when the similarity score is greater than the authentication threshold.

Patent number: 11818102Abstract: Embodiments of the present disclosure relate to methods, apparatuses and computer readable storage media for inter-network communication. A first edge protection proxy in a first network receives a request for an access token from a network repository function in the first network. The access token is to be used by a first network function in the first network to request a service from a second network function in a second network. The first edge protection proxy validates the request based on configurations allowed to access services provided by networks different from the first network. If the validation of the request is successful, the first edge protection proxy transmits the request to a second edge protection proxy in the second network. The transmitted request comprises verified information concerning the first network function.Type: GrantFiled: April 16, 2021Date of Patent: November 14, 2023Assignee: NOKIA TECHNOLOGIES OYInventors: Saurabh Khare, Chaitanya Aggarwal, Anja Jerichow
