Patent number: 12348427Abstract: Systems and methods are provided for implementing reciprocal data sharing in a data exchange system. Limitations may be placed on the amount of data an exchange member may access based on the amount of data contributed. The system may include determining a data contribution associated with a first member of the data exchange, determining a data access limit for the first member based on the data contribution, and providing data to the first member when the first member has not exceeded the data access limit. In some embodiments, there may be separate data access limits for each member of the data exchange, so that a first member may have different access limits when accessing data from a second member, data from a third member, and data from a fourth member. Further, the system may limit a requester to a type of data that corresponds to the type of data contributed.Type: GrantFiled: February 20, 2024Date of Patent: July 1, 2025Assignee: Early Warning Services, LLCInventors: Michael Cook, Gregor R.

Patent number: 12164611Abstract: Disclosed herein is an identity network that provides a universal, digital identity for users to be authenticated by an identity provider for relying parties upon sign-in to the relying party. The identity network receives the sign-in request from a relying party for a user using a user device. The identity network can provide a session identifier to the relying party for the request and launch an identity provider application associated with the user via a software development kit in the relying party application. The user may sign-in to the identity provider via the software development kit, thereby authenticating the user for the relying party. Additionally, the identity provider may generate a risk validation score and provide it to the relying party that provides a confidence value that the user is validly using the user device and a risk score based on device activity on the identity network.Type: GrantFiled: January 8, 2024Date of Patent: December 10, 2024Assignee: Early Warning Services, LLCInventors: Gregory Slowiak, Eric Woodward, Philip Lam, Jeff Shultz

Patent number: 12111896Abstract: Disclosed herein is an identity network that can provide a universal, digital identity for users that can be used to authenticate the user by an identity provider for relying parties to utilize for confirming the identity of the user during sign-up. The identity network receives a request from a relying party that includes deep linking to an identity provider selected by the user. The request specifies the user and any other information about the user the relying party is requesting. A service of the identity network launches the application for the identity provider on the user's device and the user logs into the identity provider's application, which provides the user authentication/validation and information about the user to the identity network. The identity network can then provide the information to the relying party, which the relying party can rely on for creating an account with the relying party for the user.Type: GrantFiled: September 26, 2023Date of Patent: October 8, 2024Assignee: Early Warning Services, LLCInventors: Gregory Slowiak, Eric Woodward, Philip Lam, Jeff Shultz

Patent number: 12079369Abstract: A synthetic identity detection network may include a communications interface, one or more processors, and a memory having instructions stored thereon. The instructions cause the processors to receive a data inquiry from a requesting system. The data inquiry may include personally identifiable information (PII) data associated with a user. The instructions cause the processors to match the PII data to a plurality of user identities. Each user identity may be associated with at least a portion of the PII data. The instructions cause the processors to identify account statuses associated with accounts associated with the user identities. The instructions cause the processors to generate a code based at least in part on a count of the user identities and the account statuses. The code provides an indication of a likelihood of the user being a synthetic identity. The instructions cause the processors to transmit the code to the requesting system.Type: GrantFiled: June 16, 2022Date of Patent: September 3, 2024Assignee: Early Warning Services, LLCInventors: Dan Hayden, Sandra Letterly, Robin Love, Matt Cottrell
