Abstract: Systems and methods for mobile authentication for web payments are disclosed. In some implementations, a proxy server receives, from a computing device different from a mobile device, a request from a user to process a web payment via a payment account associated with the mobile device, the web payment being associated with an online merchant. The proxy server verifies that the mobile device is associated with the user. The proxy server transmits, to a commerce server of the online merchant, payment information for the web payment in response to verifying that the mobile device is associated with the user.

Abstract: Systems and methods for device-based authentication are disclosed. In some implementations, a device receives a Single Sign On PIN from a backend server. The device transmits, to a token server, the Single Sign On PIN and credentials of a subscriber identity module (SIM) to request a token for accessing a network resource via a computer different from the device. The token is associated with a user account. The device receives the token from the token server. The device stores the token at a local memory of the device.

Abstract: A supplemental display unit may provide information to a display associated with a wearable article. The supplemental display unit may share a communications channel with a mobile device, and exchange data with the mobile device over the communications channel while the mobile device resides within the wearable article. The supplemental display unit may generate a screen having a graphical user interface (GUI) based on the exchanged data, where an appearance of the screen is based on a measurement of the wearable article. The supplemental display unit may provide icons on the GUI presenting information to the user, where the icons may be arranged in groups based upon the type of information that each icon presents, and provide the GUI to the display, where the display is coupled to the wearable article.

Abstract: Systems and methods for mobile-based login via wireless credential transfer are disclosed. In some implementations, a proxy server receives a registration request for a receiver device for accessing a secure resource. The proxy server registers the receiver device in response to the registration request. The proxy server receives, from a transmitter device, information identifying the transmitter device along with authentication credentials for authenticating the receiver device to access the secure resource. The proxy server identifies the receiver device based on the information identifying the transmitter device. The proxy server forwards, to the receiver device, the authentication credentials for authenticating access of the receiver device to the secure resource.

Abstract: Systems and methods for remote authentication using mobile single sign on credentials are disclosed. In some implementations, a proxy server receives, from a web access device, a request to access a secure online resource via the web access device. The proxy server receives, from a mobile device different from the web access device, one or more credentials for accessing the secure online resource. The proxy server determines that a geographic distance between the web access device and the mobile device is less than a geographic distance threshold. Upon determining that the geographic distance between the web access device and the mobile device is less than the geographic distance threshold, the proxy server enables the web access device access to the secure online resource.

Abstract: An application installed on a mobile device currently activated for service with a mobile wireless communication network captures information uniquely identifying a currently unsubscribed mobile device. The unique information may be captured from the currently unsubscribed mobile device via any of several short range transfer mechanisms. The application transfers the captured information and other information used to activate the currently unsubscribed mobile device to an activation service of the mobile wireless communication network, and the service activates the currently unsubscribed mobile device. In another example, a self-activation portal system determines an identifier of an owner of an account associated with an identifier provided by a user of a mobile device to be activated for use with a mobile wireless service. The system sends a message to the account owner offering options to accept or decline the activation request.
