Patent number: 10049352Abstract: In a transaction between a merchant and a customer, a mobile payment token is provided which includes a mobile payment indicator that indicates payment is to be facilitated by interaction with a customer mobile device, and a mobile device identifier that uniquely identifies the customer mobile device. The mobile payment token is provided in a transaction message to a transaction processing component in place of, and consistent with a format of, a primary account number (PAN). The transaction processing component, upon determining the transaction message contains a mobile payment indicator, sends the mobile device identifier to a mobile payment server which uses the mobile device identifier to interact with the customer mobile device to facilitate the payment transaction. Based on a reply from the customer mobile device, the mobile payment server provides information to the transaction processing component to complete the transaction.Type: GrantFiled: February 18, 2015Date of Patent: August 14, 2018Assignee: Apriva, LLCInventors: Michael S. Klingen, Edward F. Staiano

Publication number: 20150170139Abstract: The present invention relates generally to a system and device for compartmentalizing data acquisition functions within various hardware and software components and web services. More specifically, the system comprises a number of data providers including web services configured to receive transaction parameters from a payment network gateway system. The gateway system routes payment requests to appropriate payment processors and further parses the payment request for parameters. An information request including the parameters is sent to a cataloging service, which selects one or more web services based on the information request and parameters. The cataloging service sends the parameters to the one or more web services, which retrieves information based on a parameter and returns the information to the gateway server. The gateway server processes the information with the original transaction data and stores the combined information in a database.Type: ApplicationFiled: June 27, 2014Publication date: June 18, 2015Inventor: Michael S.

Publication number: 20150117643Abstract: In a mobile communication device, multiple sets of sensor measurement data are obtained, each from a corresponding hardware sensor resident on the device. Insufficiently random data is filtered from each of the data sets to produce random data sets which are combined to produce entropy data which is stored in an entropy data cache. An entropy pool is monitored to determine a level of entropy data available and, based on the level determined, entropy data is provided from the entropy data cache to the entropy pool. Entropy data from the entropy pool is then applied to perform a cryptographic operation such as the generation of an encryption key for encrypting communications sent or received by the mobile communication device.Type: ApplicationFiled: October 31, 2013Publication date: April 30, 2015Applicant: Apriva, LLCInventors: Randolph A.
