Abstract: An access control system cooperates with a security system. The access control system may be used to control aspects of the security system and the security system may be used to control aspects of a lockset used to lock or unlock an access point (e.g., door). A user can choose to arm or disarm the security system via the access control system and similarly the user may choose to lock or unlock the access point via the security system.

Abstract: Systems and methods for providing identification tests. In some embodiments, a system and a method are provided for generating and serving to a user an animated challenge graphic comprising a challenge character set whose appearance may change over time. In some embodiments, marketing content may be incorporated into a challenge message for use in an identification test. The marketing content may be accompanied by randomly selected content to increase a level of security of the identification test, in some embodiments, a challenge message for use in an identification test may be provided based on information regarding a transaction for which the identification test is administered. For example, the transaction information may include a user identifier such as an IP address. In some embodiments, identification test results may be tracked and analyzed to identify a pattern of behavior associated with a user identifier. A score indicative of a level of trustworthiness may be computed for the user identifier.

Abstract: A method for distributed trust authentication of one or more users attempting to access one or more service providers operating on a network includes performing primary authentication of a user using a first authentication factor, generating a first partial digital signature for a first authentication response to the primary authentication, performing secondary authentication of the user using a second authentication factor, generating a second partial digital signature for the second authentication response to the secondary authentication, combining the first and second partial digital signatures to form a composite digital signature, and validating the composite digital signature.

Abstract: A system, method, and computer program product for implementing a phishing assessment that includes a phishing server that implements one or more phishing assessments; the phishing server: identifies legitimate target domain names to be used in the phishing assessment, generates one or more pseudo domain names and pseudo web pages, where the pseudo domain name are visually similar to an identified target domain name and the pseudo web page includes one or more characteristics and attributes of a legitimate web page.

Abstract: An approach for enforcing standards regarding security vulnerabilities for an endpoint user device associated with a user includes collecting, at an inline frame implemented with a web application, endpoint health data of the endpoint user device in response to the user interfacing with the web application through the endpoint user device, generating endpoint health intelligence from the endpoint health data, the endpoint health intelligence indicating endpoint security health of the endpoint user device, generating a first endpoint health notification comprising the endpoint health intelligence, and notifying an administrator of network with the first endpoint health notification.

Abstract: In an approach for protecting against use of clones of electronic devices, a first sequence value is initialized on the server and an equal second sequence value is initialized on an electronic device. In response to a first login request to the server from a user operating the electronic device, the first and second sequence values are compared. If the values are equal, processing of the login process continues. Otherwise, the login request is rejected. If the login is successful, a next value is computed for the first and second sequence values, and the next first and second sequence values are stored on the server and on the electronic device, respectively.
