Patent number: 11941100Abstract: An apparatus verifies hosted information associated with a user. The apparatus establishes, by the online host serving as a relying party system (RPS), a secure connection between the RPS and a user mobile-identification-credential device (UMD). The RPS sends a mobile identification credential (MIC) user information request to the UMD, via the secure connection, seeking release of MIC user information (official information). The RPS obtains from authorizing party system (APS) verification of the MIC user information received in response to the MIC user information request. The RPS stores the MIC user information as hosted information pertaining to the user. The RPS designates the hosted information as base truth information representing the user.Type: GrantFiled: May 4, 2023Date of Patent: March 26, 2024Assignee: The Government of the United States of America, represented by the Secretary of Homeland SecurityInventors: Daniel A. Boyd, Kelli L Biegger, Chang Ellison, Brandon P. Gutierrez, Jason Lim, William Washington

Publication number: 20240098503Abstract: In an example, a provider system receives from a client device a request for client access. The provider system sends to the client device a request for identification information of the client. The provider system receives client information associated with a mobile identification credential (MIC) which the client device received from an authorizing party system (APS), the client having consented to release the client information to the provider system, and the client information having been verified by the APS. The provider system uses the verified client information associated with the MIC to verify or not verify the identity of the client. The provider system verifies the identity of the client before granting the client the request for client access.Type: ApplicationFiled: November 22, 2023Publication date: March 21, 2024Applicant: The Government of the United States of America, as represented by the Secretary of Homeland SecurityInventors: Jason Lim, Daniel Boyd, Chang Ellison, William Washington

Patent number: 11716630Abstract: A provider system is connected to readers disposed at distances from the provider system. A secure local connection is established between the client device and the provider system via one of the readers. Before the client reaches an access touchpoint, the provider system receives from the client device a request for client access, the provider system sends to the client device a request for identification information of the client, and the client device sends client information associated with a first mobile identification credential (MIC) which the client device received from an authorizing party system (APS), the client having consented to release the client information to the provider system, and the client information having been verified. The provider system performs a liveness check of the client using live-captured biometric information at the access touchpoint, determines whether the liveness check is valid, and grants the request if the liveness check is valid.Type: GrantFiled: October 6, 2022Date of Patent: August 1, 2023Assignee: The Government of the United States of America, as represented by the Secretary of Homeland SecurityInventors: Jason Lim, Daniel Boyd, Chang Ellison, William Washington

Patent number: 11580559Abstract: In an example, a subject using a user mobile-identification-credential device (UMD) requests vetting by a vetting system, which receives verified subject information associated with a level-n mobile identification credential (MIC-n) that UMD received from a level-n authorizing party system (APS-n). MIC-n is linked to lower level MIC-0 to MIC-(n?1). The vetting system, as level-n relying party system (RPS-n), uses the verified subject information associated with the linked MIC-0 to MIC-n to verify or not verify the identity of the subject, develops an identity profile of the subject, and determines a vetting result of the subject by calculating a composite trust score based on MIC trust values for the multiple levels of MIC. MIC-i (i=1 to n) is linked to MIC-(i?1) which UMD received from APS-(i?1), and APS-i is RPS-(i?1) which verified the identity of the subject using verified subject information associated with MIC-(i?1), such that MIC-0 to MIC-n are linked.Type: GrantFiled: July 22, 2021Date of Patent: February 14, 2023Assignee: The Government of the United States of America, as represented by the Secretary of Homeland SecurityInventors: Chang Ellison, Kelli L.

Patent number: 11521720Abstract: In an example, a patient using a user mobile-identification-credential device (UMD) requests the patient's medical record from a medical office using a relying party system (RPS). The RPS requests identification information of the patient from the UMD and receives, based on consent of the patient, some or all patient identification information associated with a mobile identification credential (MIC) previously provisioned to the UMD an authorizing party system (APS). The RPS receives verification of the received patient identification information, uses the verified user ID information to verify or not verify the identity of the patient, and verifies the identity of the patient before granting the request to provide the medical record to the patient. The patient has the option of releasing part or all of the medical record to a third party. In one embodiment, the patient stores the medical record with a service provider and authorizes, in advance, certain medical personnel to have access to it.Type: GrantFiled: February 4, 2021Date of Patent: December 6, 2022Assignee: The Government of the United States of America, as represented by the Secretary of Homeland SecurityInventors: Daniel A.
