  • Patent number: 11765153
    Abstract: The disclosed technology relates to a process of evaluating any number of different identity providers (IDPs) and their respective set of credentials that are used to authenticate corresponding users to assist with the onboarding of the different IDPs in connection with Wi-Fi identity federations. In particular, the process allows a person's electronic identity and attributes (stored across one or more IDPs) to be determined once using a standard. Once trust has been established for the user, that trust can then be utilized across a number of different systems (e.g., Single-sign on). The same trust determination can be used without the need for the authenticity of the user identity to be re-evaluated with each new access request.

  • Patent number: 11758403
    Abstract: Theft identification, prevention, and remedy are provided. A determination is made that a client device has been compromised. When the device makes the determination, a message is conveyed to the server and the server replies with a security challenge. When the server makes the determination, the security challenge is automatically sent to the device. An intelligence manager on the device attempts to answer the security question without interaction from the user. If there is an anomaly, a challenge is output to the user. Based on a false response to the challenge, a current data stream may be disrupted and removed from the device. Further, other devices in the network may be notified about the compromised device.

  • Patent number: 11743040
    Abstract: A vault encryption abstraction framework computing system provides interface functionality to facilitate integration of client applications with vaulting solutions. The vault encryption abstraction framework manages custom authentication and authorization using the vaulting solution application for one or more client applications such as by periodically rotating or renewing any authentication tokens. The vault encryption abstraction framework includes a scheduler to manage timing requirements and to configure the client application to the schedule by setting the renewed token value to an API endpoint (e.g., a function return) and/or a configuration file for access by one or more client applications. This event triggers the client application to update to the latest token value. The vault encryption abstraction framework then triggers the vaulting solution to create and return the new key. The new key is then returned to the client application.

  • Patent number: 11722530
    Abstract: Resources can be secured by a resource security system. The resource security system can determine whether to grant or deny access to resources using authorization information in an access request. The resource security system can also determine whether the access request is legitimate or fraudulent using risk scoring models. A score transformation table can be used to provide consistency in the risk level for a particular score over time. The score transformation table can be based on a target score profile and a precision format (e.g., integer or floating point). The score transformation table can dynamically adapt based on the trending top percent of risk and can account for changes in the distribution of scores over time or by weekday. The scores can be used to determine an access request outcome. Access to the resource can be accepted or rejected based on the outcome.
