Patent number: 11968523Abstract: Briefly, example methods, apparatuses, and/or articles of manufacture may be implemented, in whole or in part, to form a secure channel, such as between or among a communications device, a client computing resource, and/or an identity verifier. In particular embodiments, a method may include recognizing via a subscriber identifier, a known communications device within a communications network. The method may additionally include issuing an eSIM to the communications device via the communications network in response to recognizing the communications device and relating the eSIM to the subscriber identifier of the communications device. The method may further include, responsive to receipt of one or more signals from a client computing resource, utilizing encryption provided by the eSIM to form a secure channel between or among the communications device and an identity verifier.Type: GrantFiled: August 19, 2021Date of Patent: April 23, 2024Assignee: PROVE IDENTITY, INC.Inventors: Jeffrey Robert Naujok, Rodger R. Desai, Michael Bijelich, Aditya Khurjekar

Patent number: 11831731Abstract: Briefly, example methods, apparatuses, and/or articles of manufacture may be implemented, in whole or in part, to prove possession of a communications device, such as a mobile communications device. In a particular method, proving possession of a communications device may include receiving, from a client server, an indicator to indicate a communication services carrier servicing the communications device. The method may continue with generating a session identifier and a resource locator to direct the communications device to establish communications with an identity verifier at an address corresponding to the resource locator. The resource locator may be determined based, at least in part, on the indicator received from the client server. The method may additionally include the communications device transmitting one or more identifiers, determined, at least in part, from content stored within, or data derived from, memory of the communications device.Type: GrantFiled: February 23, 2021Date of Patent: November 28, 2023Assignee: PROVE IDENTITY, INC.Inventor: Jeffrey Robert Naujok

Patent number: 11755667Abstract: Briefly, example methods, apparatuses, and/or articles of manufacture may be implemented to receive or obtain, responsive to transmitting the one or more search terms to a search entity, one or more primary content items that include messages that accord with the one or more search terms. The method may additionally include parsing the messages that accord with the one or more search terms to detect one or more relevant secondary search terms and obtaining secondary content items that accord with the one or more relevant secondary search terms. The method may further include generating signals to represent a report of entities that accord with the one or more relevant secondary search terms.Type: GrantFiled: February 24, 2022Date of Patent: September 12, 2023Assignee: Prove Identity, Inc.Inventors: Amit Goel, Tarun Bansal, Aditya Khurjekar, Nicolo Petrone, Mehul Desai

Patent number: 11671819Abstract: A communications management system for implementing a freeze on electronic transactions. For example, a device management system provides a means of preventing the porting of at least one communication device account—such as a cellular phone number—from one carrier to another through a list of identifiers that include phone numbers, device identifiers, or personal identifiers that have been enrolled in the device management system through an interface by an authorized user. Advantageously, the device management system provides a revision to the existing phone porting architecture and enables fraud detection and prevention.Type: GrantFiled: December 1, 2021Date of Patent: June 6, 2023Assignee: PROVE IDENTITY, INC.Inventors: Rodger Desai, Jeffrey Naujok, Christopher Cunningham, Greg Bonin

Patent number: 11483710Abstract: Example methods, apparatuses, and/or articles of manufacture may be implemented to utilize a computing device to receive, from a communications network, a first signal to indicate that a subscriber, such as a subscriber of a mobile communication services carrier, has initiated an electronic transaction. The method may include detecting, utilizing one or more data stores, a record of a transfer of a subscriber account identifier and, in response, determining whether the transfer corresponds to a porting event initiated by a subscriber or initiated by a communication services carrier. The method may further include transmitting at least a second signal on the communications network, in which the at least the second signal indicates authentication, authorization, and/or verification of the electronic or digital transaction responsive to determining whether the transfer corresponds to a porting event initiated by a subscriber or corresponds to an event initiated by a communication services carrier.Type: GrantFiled: December 1, 2020Date of Patent: October 25, 2022Assignee: Prove Identity, Inc.Inventors: Jeffrey Naujok, Christopher Cunningham, Greg Bonin

Patent number: 11373163Abstract: Briefly, in accordance with one or more embodiments, for example, a method and/or system is provided to at least authenticate a mobile subscriber that has been registered via a registration process comprising. A current international mobile subscriber identifier (IMSI) associated with a mobile telephone number received electronically via a network is queried. A database entry created via the registration process including an IMSI associated with a received mobile telephone number at the time of mobile subscriber registration is also queried. At least the current IMSI and the IMSI of the database entry are compared. Account status of the mobile subscriber based at least in part on a match between the current IMSI and the IMSI of the database entry is verified. Verifying the account status includes determining creditworthiness with respect to the account of the mobile subscriber.Type: GrantFiled: August 16, 2019Date of Patent: June 28, 2022Assignee: Prove Identity, Inc.Inventors: Michael Brody, Rodger Desai, Sung Kim

Patent number: 11368454Abstract: The disclosed embodiments provide a system that authenticates a user of an unattended device. In response to sensing a presence of the user in proximity to the unattended device, the system makes a call from the unattended device to an authentication service to authenticate the user. In response to the call, the authentication service authenticates the user based on recently collected sensor data, which was obtained from one or more sensors in a portable electronic device belonging to the user. If authentication succeeds, the system allows the user to proceed with an interaction with the unattended device.Type: GrantFiled: April 16, 2019Date of Patent: June 21, 2022Assignee: Prove Identity, Inc.Inventors: John C.
