Patent number: 10574655Abstract: Methods and systems for controlling a network access control system that includes a server encrypting a first identifier that can be related to a registered user and communicating the encrypted first identifier to the mobile device. The lock device receives, from the mobile device, a first data set that includes at least the encrypted first identifier. The lock device may encrypt the first data set to generate a second data set and communicates the encrypted second data set to the mobile device. The server receives a third data set that includes at least the encrypted second data set and a second identifier that can also be related to the registered user. The server extracts from the communicated third data set the first and second identifiers, and the extracted first and second identifiers are compared to verify that the second identifier is indeed related to the first identifier.Type: GrantFiled: November 6, 2018Date of Patent: February 25, 2020Assignee: Schlage Lock Company LLCInventors: Jeffrey S. Neafsey, Joseph W. Baumgarte, Matthew Dexter, Ed Harrold
