  • Patent number: 11763292
    Abstract: A card (35) generates a dynamic security code for a card transaction, e.g. a card not present (CNP) transaction. The card (35) receives a request (83) to generate a dynamic security code from an electronic device (10) external to the card via an external card interface (330). The card (35) receives a message (87) comprising a time via the external card interface (330). The card (35) computes (89) the dynamic security code based on the time and a key (dCVV-key) stored at the card. The card (35) sends the dynamic security code (90) to the electronic device (10) via the external card interface (330) for display on a display (14) of the electronic device (10).

  • Publication number: 20230261854
    Abstract: A post-quantum strong authentication scheme uses a reference PIN code stored in the memory of a personal object 1. A server generates a secret ss and a corresponding cipher ct using a key encapsulation mechanism, KEM, and a public key pk of the user, and then generates a cryptographic key ss' with a one-way function, OWF, applied to the secret. An access terminal 2 receives ss' and ct, and then obtains a PIN entered by the user, encrypts the PIN with ss?, and finally transmits the encrypted PIN cPIN and ct to the personal object 1. The personal object obtains ss through KEM decapsulation of ct and, with its private key sk, generates ss' with OWF, and uses it to decrypt cPIN. Verification thereof validates a first authentication factor. The personal object generates and then sends a confirmation Know(ss) of the secret to the server, validating a second authentication factor.

  • Patent number: 11722306
    Abstract: A method for strong authentication of an individual by a server and a connected client device, the client device having a candidate biometric data of the individual and an image from an identity document representing at least one photograph of the individual and one optical reader data visible on the identity document. A cryptographic footprint includes extracting, by analysis of the acquired image and the optical reader data, calculating a first data decoded by application of a decoding process to the candidate information and to a first encoded data, such that the first decoded data matches first random data if the candidate information matches a reference information representative of the appearance of the photograph, verifying that a cryptographic footprint of a first concatenation of the extracted optical reader data and the decoded data coincides with the first cryptographic footprint, and a reference biometric data and the candidate biometric data match.

  • Patent number: 11715324
    Abstract: A method for extracting a signature of a fingerprint shown on a source image is described. For this purpose, the source image is transformed into the frequency domain. One or more ridge frequencies are next determined by means of a convolutional neural network applied to said transformed image, n being an integer greater than or equal to 1. The source image is normalized in response to said n ridge frequencies determined. One or more signatures of said fingerprint are finally extracted from said n normalized images.

  • Patent number: 11710392
    Abstract: Provided herein are systems and methods for implementing a video surveillance system. In one or more examples, the improved system can include a video managing system that applies one or more watchlists, to video footage captured by surveillance cameras to apply one or more processing policies indicated by the one or more watchlists. In some embodiments, a watchlist may indicate a plurality of events of interest (e.g., specific classes of objects, a presence of one or more persons, or one or more persons of interest, etc.) that should be detected from video footage. Through these mechanisms, video processing can be increased since the types of events of interest that need to be detected within the video footage are reduced. Non-transitory storage requirements are reduced, and human labor requirements to monitor, analyze, and review video surveillance footage is reduced.
