  • Patent number: 11791989
    Abstract: Encryption keys may be deployed to a satellite, secured, and accessed from a terrestrial source that verifies entity identifying information, generates an access key that is associated in a key pair with a one-time pad (OTP) key used to encrypt a message, transmits the access key to a satellite on which the key pair and encrypted message are stored, receives the encrypted message and the OTP key from the satellite, and decrypts the encrypted message using the OTP key. The satellite receives the OTP from an extra-terrestrial delivery vehicle, stores the OTP in memory, associates one-to-one the access keys and OTP keys as the key pairs in a key pairs table, receives a request for the encrypted message, the request including the access key paired in a key pair in the key pairs table with the OTP key that was used to encrypt the message, and retrieves, in response to receiving the access key, the OTP key and the encrypted message associated in the data storage with the OTP key paired with the access key.

  • Patent number: 11775631
    Abstract: A system and method for automatically updating biometric data for a user by preferably retaining an ongoing digital collection of images/biometric captures/IOT (“Internet of Things”) captures taken over the life of the user. Changes in appearance of the user due to age, health, facial hair, hair color, hair length and many other evolutionary changes are automatically captured and contribute to the learning set. Accordingly, the system itself gets smarter and faster with every subsequent authentication. In one non-limiting embodiment, a target of the most recent 500 captures are retained, and tuning may suggest a greater number of captures should or could be used. Preferably, with each new capture the oldest capture in the ongoing digital collection is automatically deleted by the system.

  • Patent number: 11212277
    Abstract: An electronic platform/system and method that uses electronic data to protect itself by realizing where an individual's device is and where it is being accessed from. As the internet expands into the physical world, with every device being IP enabled and addressable, the geographic proximity, network proximity, proximity to the access point of the internet, the authentication, encryption and presentation and flow of data can be linked to an increasingly addressable and measurable physical reality, a moment in time and a proximity to other data and objects using the system and method. The data itself is IP accessible in the form of IP addressable storage devices, and subject to the same techniques. Geographic, chronological and addressable interrelationship of the data as it is packetized and distributed, and the devices as they communicate, form a fabric.
