Publication number: 20140122869Abstract: Provided is a system and method for providing a certificate, and more specifically a certificate for network access upon a second system. The method includes receiving from a user a request made with a first device for network access, the request including a voucher. At least one characteristic of the first device is also determined. Upon verification of the voucher and in response to the first device having at least one characteristic corresponding to at least one predefined device criteria, the user is provided with a certificate with at least one characteristic for network access. An associated system for providing a Certificate is also provided.Type: ApplicationFiled: October 26, 2012Publication date: May 1, 2014Applicant: Cloudpath Networks, Inc.Inventors: Kevin Lee Koster, Roger Lynn Haney, Chris Hessing

Publication number: 20130254864Abstract: Provided is a system and method for providing a certificate, and more specifically a certificate for network access upon a second system based on at least one criteria and an established identity with a first system. The method includes receiving criteria, such as at least one predefined attribute. Also received from a user known to a first system is a request for network access to a second system, the request having at least one identifier. The first system is then queried with the identifier for attributes associated with the user. The attributes associated with the user are evaluated to the predefined attribute(s). In response to at least one attribute associated with the user correlating to the predefined attribute(s), providing a certificate with at least one characteristic for network access on the second system to the user. An associated system for providing a Certificate is also provided.Type: ApplicationFiled: April 24, 2012Publication date: September 26, 2013Applicant: Cloudpath Networks, Inc.Inventors: Kevin Lee Koster, Roger Lynn Haney

Publication number: 20140325209Abstract: Provided is a system and method for managing network access based on a history of a Certificate. The system includes an Authentication System structured and arranged to receive from a User a request for network access, the request including a Certificate and at least one associated Characteristic distinct from the Certificate. A validation system is in communication with the Authentication System and structured and arranged to receive a request for validation of the Certificate, the Validation System evaluating the at least one Characteristic against a History for the Certificate to provide a positive or negative evaluation. The Validation System updates the History for the Certificate to include the request for validation of the Certificate. In response to a positive evaluation validating the Certificate, the Authentication System permits network access to the user. In response to a negative evaluation the Authentication System blocking network access to the user and the Certificate being restricted.Type: ApplicationFiled: April 30, 2013Publication date: October 30, 2014Applicant: Cloudpath Networks, Inc.Inventors: Kevin Lee Koster, Roger Lynn Haney
