  • Patent number: 11943003
    Abstract: A scheme for identifying wireless devices by capturing out-of-band information in addition to in-band information from wireless devices for enabling accurate classification of wireless devices. Both the in-band and out-of-band spectrum emissions of the received signal are used to capture hardware signatures and features. These hardware signatures are used to discriminate different wireless devices uniquely and efficiently, even when the devices have the same hardware with significantly reduced distortions. The out-of-band information can be extracted using radios with software defined capabilities. Deep learning-based device classification technique is applied that uses IQ samples collected from the RF signals to efficiently identify and classify high-performing transmitters that have the same, minimally distorted hardware components.

  • Patent number: 11769127
    Abstract: Aspects of the disclosure relate to intelligent processing of broken or failed ATM transactions. In some embodiments, a computing platform may receive transaction data associated with a pending transaction initiated on a mobile computing device and generate hash information corresponding to the received transaction data. Then, the computing platform may identify ATMs previously visited by the user. Based on performing analytics on those previously visited ATMs, the computing platform may identify, from those previously visited ATMs, one or more alternate ATMs for completing the pending transaction. Next, the computing platform may send a notification to the mobile computing device that includes navigation information. Thereafter, the computing platform may cause the alternate ATMs to await input from the user by sending the generated hash information.

  • Patent number: 11769148
    Abstract: Computer-implemented methods and systems reliant on establishing a common session key between an electronic device and a computer server are disclosed. The method and systems may be for processing de-tokenization requests in payment transaction processing and for preparing an electronic device to perform payment transactions. During such a transaction, the server may perform a method that includes receiving a de-tokenization request including a payment token and a cryptogram generated by the electronic device using a session key generated by the electronic device based on a fingerprint of the electronic device, a secret value previously shared with the electronic device, the payment token, and a transaction counter; retrieving the fingerprint, the secret value, and the transaction counter and generating the session key based on the same; verifying the cryptogram using the session key; retrieving an associated account number; and sending response to the request including the account number.

  • Patent number: 11750655
    Abstract: Mechanisms for requesting, by a client device, registration of identified data at a sensor reader. A request command is sent from the client device and to the sensor reader pertaining to a registration operation to be performed on identified data at the sensor reader. A security policy is assigned to the identified data by the sensor reader. A first security protected object and a second security protected object of the identified data are created by the sensor reader and based on the request command and the security policy. The second security protected object is sent, by the sensor reader, to the client device. The first security protected object is sent, by the sensor reader, towards the trusted server. The trusted server, upon reception of the first security protected object, verifies that the sensor reader that created the first security protected object has a security trusted relationship with the trusted server.

  • Patent number: 11741440
    Abstract: Systems and methods for performing consolidation of several cryptocurrency payments by using a non-custodial cryptocurrency platform. A consolidation address is generated at the non-custodial platform in response to a withdrawal request. The consolidation address is under direct ownership of a user. At least one unsigned consolidation transaction is generated that identifies at least one selected payment representation as input, and the generated consolidation address as an output. An unsigned destination transaction is also generated. The unsigned destination transaction identifies the generated consolidation address as an input and the withdrawal destination as an output.

    Abstract: Methods, systems, and apparatus, including a method for preventing fraud. In some aspects, a method includes: receiving, from multiple client devices, a measurement data element that includes a respective group member key and a group identifier for a given conversion as a result of displaying a digital component. Each client device uses a threshold encryption scheme to generate, based at least on network data that includes one or more of impression data or conversion data for the conversion, a group key that defines a secret for encrypting the network data and generate, based on data related to the application, the respective group member key that includes a respective share of the secret. In response to determining that at least the threshold number of measurement data elements having the same group identifier have been received, the network data is decrypted using the group member keys in the received measurement data elements.
