Patent number: 11581962Abstract: A radio transmitter adjusts its radio frequency (RF) fingerprint to defeat RF fingerprinting identification without destroying the content of its transmissions. The radio transmitter comprises a frequency-upconverter configured to upconvert a baseband or intermediate-frequency signal to an RF signal, and an amplifier to amplify the RF signal to produce a transmission signal. An RF fingerprint control circuit changes the non-linear behavior of the frequency-upconverter or the amplifier in order to change the RF fingerprint. The transmitter may create RF fingerprint “personalities” to be paired with different radio protocol behaviors and subscriber terminal identification codes (e.g., MAC addresses or SMSIs) for generating different radio identities.Type: GrantFiled: October 13, 2020Date of Patent: February 14, 2023Assignee: Department 13, Inc.Inventors: Robi Sen, Steve Shattil

Patent number: 11558370Abstract: Embodiments of the invention are directed to systems, methods, and computer program products for generation of dynamic authentication tokens for use in system-to-system transaction authorization and user identity verification. The system utilizes user historical data to generate unique authentication tokens which are customized to a particular user. Furthermore, the system rotates not only the encryption algorithms used, but also the datasets being encrypted in order to provide a high level of security such that even if a user's historical data was compromised, it would be highly unlikely that an attacker would be able to recreate the authentication token stemming from said historical data at any given point in time. The system eliminates the need for user-provided authentication credentials and provides a more secure and more efficient method of authenticating data exchange between multiple systems or applications.Type: GrantFiled: June 14, 2021Date of Patent: January 17, 2023Assignee: BANK OF AMERICA CORPORATIONInventors: Joseph Benjamin Castinado, Brandon Ingram, Ann Ta
