Patent number: 11102180Abstract: The disclosed exemplary embodiments include computer-implemented systems, apparatuses, and processes that, among other things, authenticate device identity and authorize exchanges of data in real-time based on dynamically generated cryptographic data. For example, an apparatus may receive a first signal that includes a first cryptogram associated with a client device, and may perform operations that authenticate an identity of the client device based on a comparison of the received first cryptogram and a second cryptogram generated by a computing system associated with an application program executed by the client device. In response to the authenticated identity, the apparatus may load profile data associated with the client device from a storage unit, and perform operations consistent with the profile data in accordance with the authenticated identity.Type: GrantFiled: January 31, 2018Date of Patent: August 24, 2021Assignee: The Toronto-Dominion BankInventors: Dino Paul D'Agostino, Perry Aaron Jones Haldenby, Dean C.

Patent number: 11062312Abstract: The disclosure generally describes computer-implemented methods, software, and systems, including a method for placing a card into a usable state. A biometric input is received for a user to which a card has been issued by an entity. The card has an operational mode of an unusable state that has been previously identified by the entity for a particular PAN. The particular PAN is invalidated for use in further data exchanges using the card. The biometric input is received by an electronic controller embedded in the card. A determination is made that the biometric input matches one of one or more stored biometric profiles of users authorized to use the card. Based on the determining, a new PAN is activated for the card. The new PAN is usable in further data exchanges of the card. The operational mode of the card is modified to a usable state by the electronic controller.Type: GrantFiled: July 14, 2017Date of Patent: July 13, 2021Assignee: The Toronto-Dominion BankInventors: Milos Dunjic, Perry Aaron Jones Haldenby, Arthur Carroll Chow, Het Anand Patel, Casey Lyn Doyle, Yubing Liu, Anthony Haituyen Nguyen

Publication number: 20210176244Abstract: The disclosed exemplary embodiments include computer-implemented devices, apparatuses, and processes that, among other things, perform dynamic biometric authentication based on distributed ledger data. For example, a device may compute a first hash value based on first biometric data captured by a sensor unit, and may transmit a request to, and receive a response from, a computing system across a communications network via the communications unit. The request may cause the computing system to execute instructions maintained within the distributed ledger data, and to extract second biometric data maintained within an element of the distributed ledger data. The second biometric data may include a second hash, which the computing system may incorporate into the response. The device may authenticate an identity associated with the device when the first hash value corresponds to the second hash value incorporated within the response.Type: ApplicationFiled: February 22, 2021Publication date: June 10, 2021Inventors: Arthur Carroll Chow, Anthony Haituyen Nguyen, Perry Aaron Jones Haldenby, Milos Dunjic, David Tax, John Jong-Suk Lee, Arun Victor Jagga

Patent number: 11010049Abstract: There is provided a gesture-based GUI (system, method, etc.) to facilitate input of numerical data using a continuous swipe gesture. A gesture-based I/O device displays a GUI presenting a gross number and a gross number control to initially define a specific number for further defining with specificity. In response to a first gesture (hard click or pause) interacting with the gross number control, the specific number is initially defined as the gross number and a finer number control is presented to refine the specific number. In response to a continuous swipe gesture continuing from the first gesture and interacting with the finer number control, the interface further defines the specific number with finer specificity where a quantum varies in response to a direction and distance of the continuous swipe. Successive finer number controls may be also be presented to refine the specific number by continuing the swipe.Type: GrantFiled: March 30, 2020Date of Patent: May 18, 2021Assignee: THE TORONTO-DOMINION BANKInventors: Edwin Van Damme, Perry Aaron Jones Haldenby, Paul Mon-Wah Chan, John Jong-Suk Lee

Publication number: 20200349534Abstract: The disclosed embodiments include processes that securely approve and execute exchanges of data between systems, apparatuses, and devices in a computing environment. For example, a terminal device may establish communications with a client device across a direct channel of communication, and may initiate an exchange of data with that additional device across the direct communications channel. The initiated data exchange may be characterized by a value of a data-exchange parameter, and the terminal device may determine to authorize the current data exchange in real-time based on cryptographically secure distributed ledger data maintained by the client device and provided to the terminal device across the direct communications channel. Further, and based on transmitted confirmation data, the client device may generate additional, cryptographically secure of the distributed ledger data to reflect the authorized data exchange.Type: ApplicationFiled: July 21, 2020Publication date: November 5, 2020Inventors: PERRY AARON JONES HALDENBY, Milos DUNJIC, John Jong-Suk LEE
