Abstract: A system includes an identity authentication system interface operatively coupled to a computerized network for receiving identity information over the computerized network. An identity authentication tool operatively coupled to the identity authentication system interface that receives, from the identity authentication system interface, a request to authenticate an identity; information pertaining to the user; information pertaining to the user; a collected electronic signature representation of a user; and a private information indicator from the user device. The identity authentication tool determines an indication of whether the user information matches user information stored by the identity authentication tool; and the private information indicator from the user device indicates that the user's private information was verified. An indication that the identity was verified or not verified is output by the identity authentication tool.

Abstract: Systems and methods for managing a reputation score of a user based on successful and failed logins, successful and failed multifactor authentications, and profile changes is described. The method includes receiving, by a server, status information of a user event from one or more computing devices. The status information includes one or more of an indicator of a successful login, an indicator of a failed login, an indicator of a successful multifactor authentication, an indicator of a failed multifactor authentication, an indicator of a profile update, and metadata associated with the user event from the one or more computing devices. The server updates events based on a type of the status information received and storing the events in a data store and determines whether a problematic situation has occurred. A reputation score of the user is updated when the problematic situation is determined.

Abstract: A system for combining data from various data providers, certain portions of said data necessary to perform identity related services, said portions of said data combined into a central repository with a secure data structure, said data structure made available to outside parties participating in verification or validation services on at least a part of said portions of said data, storing the results of said services as separate entries in said data structure, resulting after a review in a total score, that can be used as a proofed portable identity verification.

Abstract: Systems and methods for assessing and authenticating transactions. Some exemplary embodiments may authenticate transactions based at least in part on a comparison of a newly obtained electronic signature associated with a user with a previously obtained electronic signature associated with the user, where a payment instrument presented for use in the transaction is also associated with the user. Exemplary electronic signatures may comprise any information which may identify the user, such as browser fingerprints, computer fingerprints, IP addresses, geographic IP location information, information associated with a payment, and/or a typing pattern.

Abstract: A graphlet is extracted from a relation graph for digital identity verification. The relation graph contains data element nodes collected about access activities, such as user access context, payment instrument, address, device information, etc. The graph can be examined to identify node groups in demarcation areas. Nodes outside of the demarcation areas represent data elements of a user; and the data elements in the demarcation areas may or may not be of the user in general. The system determines a matching score between the nodes outside of the demarcation areas and the nodes in a demarcation area. The nodes in the demarcation area are attributed to the user if the matching score is above a threshold. The nodes attributed to the user are combined as the graphlet showing the data elements of the user and used in user authentication and/or access control via electronic signature.

Abstract: User names and user groups serve as the basis of a formal policy in a network. A passive monitor examines network traffic in near real time and indicates: which network traffic is flowing on the network as before; which users or user groups were logged into workstations initiating this network traffic; and which of this traffic conforms to the formal policy definition. In one embodiment of the invention, users and user groups are determined by querying Microsoft® Active Directory and Microsoft® Windows servers, to determine who is logged onto the Microsoft® network. Other sources of identity information are also possible.

Abstract: A system and method of discovering network entities. Network traffic is monitored, wherein monitoring includes finding network entities in the network traffic. If the network entities are network assets, the system determines if the network entities are critical network assets. If the network entities are network users, the system classifies the network users automatically into user groups. The network traffic is then displayed as a function of the critical network assets and the user groups.
