Patent number: 11777950Abstract: An illustrative geolocation authentication system designates a movement feasibility corroboration factor as a location corroboration factor for the geolocation authentication system to authenticate geolocations of mobile devices. Based on the designating of the movement feasibility corroboration factor, the geolocation authentication system determines a first reported geolocation of a mobile device associated with a first time and a second reported geolocation of the mobile device associated with a second time. Given that the mobile device is located at a true geolocation at the second time, the geolocation authentication system then determines, based on the first and second reported geolocations of the mobile device, a feasibility metric indicative of a likelihood that the second reported geolocation of the mobile device is the true geolocation at the second time. Corresponding methods and systems are also disclosed.Type: GrantFiled: October 13, 2021Date of Patent: October 3, 2023Assignee: Verizon Patent and Licensing Inc.Inventors: Antony Pegg, Daniel Mandle, Michael Wille, Christopher Benton Wood, Jeff Medaugh, Marc Bernardini

Patent number: 11777930Abstract: A biometric token is generated for a user and provided to a user-operated device. A pre-staged transaction is defined by a user and the user supplies the token for association with the pre-staged transaction. Subsequently, a user visits a transaction terminal and a new candidate token is generated from biometric attributes of the user. The candidate token is matched to the token associated with pre-staged transaction to authenticate the user and the pre-staged transaction is processed at the transaction terminal as a completed transaction.Type: GrantFiled: October 14, 2022Date of Patent: October 3, 2023Assignee: NCR CorporationInventors: Bruce McBain, Charlie Harrow, Husameldin M Ali Ibrahim

Patent number: 11768954Abstract: The exemplary embodiments provide real-time data capture and processing which improves data processing performance and speed and facilitate passing of the processed data to various analytical sources, while maintaining superior data quality checks, particularly with respect to data elements associated with multiple data types. The proposed system and process can be used to continuously consume and listen to multiple events while mapping the events to appropriate schemas provided in a separate schema stream. The schema stream is provided once and cached to minimize bandwidth consumed by the transaction stream. The schema information is then further enriched with information from a metadata registry. The event data may then be compressed and aligned in memory tables based on the enriched schema. Once events are decoded and sorted into memory tables in accordance to the identified schema, each memory table can be processed in parallel.Type: GrantFiled: June 16, 2020Date of Patent: September 26, 2023Assignee: CAPITAL ONE SERVICES, LLCInventors: Mayur Jagtap, Naga Venkata Sriram Vadakattu, Abhijit Chitnis, Janardhan Deepak Prabhakara, Anurag Jain, Parvesh Kumar, Rahul Surendra Nath, Behdad Forghani, Mark Assousa
