Patent number: 10019605Abstract: An interface device includes a communication interface and a secure element. The communication interface receives input data and a selection of one of a plurality of secure modes to secure the input data for transmission to a secure external computing device, such as a banking web server. The secure element secures the input data based on the secure mode that was selected. The secured input data is then transmitted to the secure external computing device.Type: GrantFiled: June 26, 2015Date of Patent: July 10, 2018Assignee: Square, Inc.Inventors: Andre Boysen, Dmitry Barinov, Eli Erlikhman

Patent number: 9300665Abstract: Methods and systems are provided for performing and verifying transactions involving authentication with a secure credential, such as a smart card, in an untrusted or semi-trusted environment. An application module, operating in an untrusted or semi-trusted environment can be denied access to sensitive data. The application module can determine a preliminary command to be sent to the credential and transmit the preliminary command to a broker module. The broker module, operating in a trusted environment, can supply sensitive data and transmit the command to the credential. Subsequently, the broker module can extract sensitive data from a response before it is transmitted to the application module. A verification server can audit the transaction to verify that it was carried out properly.Type: GrantFiled: May 29, 2012Date of Patent: March 29, 2016Assignee: SecureKey Technologies Inc.Inventors: Troy Jacob Ronda, Andre Boysen, Afshin Rezayee, Malcolm Ronald Smith, Mikhael Khaymov, Kshitiz Vadera, Murat Cat

Patent number: 9160732Abstract: A method of establishing a communication channel between a network client and a computer server over a network is described. The network client may be configured to communicate with the computer server over the network and to communicate with a token manager. The token manager may be configured with a parent digital certificate that is associated with the token manager. The token manager or network client generates a credential from the parent digital certificate, and transmits the credential to the computer server. The credential may be associated with the computer server. The network client may establish the communications channel with the computer server in accordance with an outcome of a determination of validity of the credential by, the computer server.Type: GrantFiled: October 31, 2013Date of Patent: October 13, 2015Assignee: SECUREKEY TECHNOLOGIES INC.Inventors: Troy Jacob Ronda, Pierre Antoine Roberge, Patrick Hans Engel, Rene McIver, Greg Wolfond, Andre Boysen

Methods and systems for using derived credentials to authenticate a device across multiple platforms
Patent number: 9053304Abstract: Methods and systems for adapting existing service provider servers to support two-factor authentication by leveraging an authentication server, which may be operated by a third party. Where a user desires to access content or services offered by a service provider server, the user may employ a client agent (for example, a web browser) in order to authenticate with the service provider server. Service provider server can redirect client agent to an authentication server to process at least a second factor or derived credential.Type: GrantFiled: July 13, 2012Date of Patent: June 9, 2015Assignee: SecureKey Technologies Inc.Inventors: Troy Jacob Ronda, Andre Boysen, Abhishek Das, Michael Varley, Hugh Cumming -
Publication number: 20140207682Abstract: Systems and methods for performing mobile commerce transactions using mobile devices. A transaction initiation request is received at a transaction server from a merchant device. The transaction server generates a transaction identifier, which is transmitted to the merchant device. The merchant device communicates the transaction identifier to a customer device. The customer device transmits the transaction identifier to the transaction server and authorizes the transaction with the transaction server.Type: ApplicationFiled: March 20, 2014Publication date: July 24, 2014Applicant: SecureKey Technologies Inc.Inventors: Greg Wolfond, Troy Ronda, Andre Boysen, Michael Varley, Abhishek Das
