Publication number: 20240348596Abstract: Methods and systems for facilitating authentication of a user with a plurality of applications are described. One method includes authenticating a user with a first secure application based on information received from a smart credential stored on a mobile device via a local wireless connection. The method includes obtaining a remote challenge from a remote authentication service and a mobile challenge, signing the mobile challenge with a private key, and transmitting a signed version of the mobile challenge, the remote challenge, and a public key to the mobile device. The method further includes receiving a signed version of the remote challenge and a certificate indicating validation of the mobile challenge, and transmitting the signed version of the remote challenge to the remote authentication service. Based on receiving an authentication result from the remote authentication service, access is granted to a remote secure application via the browser.Type: ApplicationFiled: June 24, 2024Publication date: October 17, 2024Applicant: Entrust CorporationInventors: MICHAEL MALLINSON, IAN REILLY, RATHNAVALLI JAYAPRAKASH, MARTIN DALE LYNESS, TIM GERLACH

Patent number: 11932010Abstract: Thermal printing on plastic cards where the energization of each individually energizable heating element of a thermal printhead is adjusted based on a temperature of the thermal printhead and a density of the pixel to be printed. For each pixel, the printhead temperature and the pixel density of a pixel to be printed are used to adjust the strobe pulse length that energizes the heating element to print that pixel. By compensating for both printhead temperature and pixel density, a tighter tolerance of the resulting printed densities is achieved.Type: GrantFiled: October 28, 2021Date of Patent: March 19, 2024Assignee: Entrust CorporationInventor: Ethan Yanna

Patent number: 11858257Abstract: A DOD print station has at least one DOD print head that applies radiation curable material, to a surface of an identification document. A curing station is adjacent to the DOD print station. The curing station includes at least one radiation emitting device, for example a UV light emitting device, that cures the radiation curable material applied to the surface. The curing station is configured to prevent stray radiation emitted from the radiation emitting device from impinging on the DOD print head(s) and prevent exposure to the operator of the DOD print station.Type: GrantFiled: July 6, 2022Date of Patent: January 2, 2024Assignee: Entrust CorporationInventors: Matt Odden, Cory Wooldridge, Andrew Luu, Daniel Sarkinen, Jon Wawra, Randy Jordan, Brendan Hinnenkamp, Brett McDonough, Tim Flitsch

Patent number: 11850869Abstract: A printing mechanism of a plastic card retransfer printer includes a platen roller with a homing mechanism attached thereto that automatically returns the platen roller to the same home position at the end of each printing pass. The homing mechanism ensures that the portion of the retransfer film being printed on travels over the same surfaces of the platen roller in each print pass. Therefore, any variations in the surface of the platen roller will manifest themselves at the same locations on the resulting printing on the retransfer film.Type: GrantFiled: December 17, 2021Date of Patent: December 26, 2023Assignee: Entrust CorporationInventors: Arthur J. Paulson, Robert J. MacDonald, Ivan Lopez Espinosa

Patent number: 11856088Abstract: Methods and systems for remote, asynchronous key entry and extraction are provided. A credential device can store a first key thereon, and can store an encrypted key component. A hardware security module manages a key template including a plurality of key components. The hardware security module manages a complementary key to the first key. The key component on the credential device can be encrypted with the first key for storage on the credential device and decrypted by the complementary key at the hardware security module. Alternately, the key component can be encrypted with the complementary key and provided to the credential device for decryption at a secure system via the first key. Accordingly, a key custodian may supply or extract a key component at a hardware security module remotely and at a time convenient to that key custodian.Type: GrantFiled: March 2, 2021Date of Patent: December 26, 2023Assignee: Entrust CorporationInventors: Benoit Lemercier, Kent Landerholm
