Abstract: A System for managing an operating system using tokenized identity. The system maintains a token repository storing user tokens, Unique-Numbers, and Public-Keys. The system registers users by processing biometric samples to compute a Secret-Key, generating a Unique-Number, and computing a Public-Key. The Public-Key (P1) is stored in the token repository, on the provisioned virtual remote device, and on a thin client application on a personal local device. The Unique-Number is stored on the provisioned virtual remote device and in the token repository. Further, the system receives session signing requests from a proxy-user management application integrated with various device Operating Systems via thin client sessions. The system authenticates users through a two-step process using real-time biometric samples, and comparing computed Real-Time-Unique-Numbers with stored Unique-Numbers.

Abstract: A system and method for managing tokenized personally identifiable information. The system registers users as enterprise representatives, customers, and law enforcement agents on an authenticator application, capturing and encrypting their authenticated information from an External Identity System. For enterprise customers, data is tokenized and securely stored. Users are registered on respective applications. The system processes information disclosure requests through a law enforcement application, implementing a dual-signature approval process. Both the enterprise representative and law enforcement agent are authenticated using biometric data, their digital signatures are affixed to the request, and only then is relevant customer information decrypted. A comprehensive audit log is maintained throughout.

The method includes steps for registering a set of users by capturing biometric samples associated with each user from the set of users. Further, the method includes steps for immutably affixing one or more Unique-Numbers (N1-Nn) associated with one or more users and one or more roles (R1-Rn) associated with each user from the one or more users to a digital artifact (A1).

Abstract: A system and method for concealing information associated with a physical mail package. A standardized schema defining a set of roles is maintained. A public-private key pair is generated for each role. A dataset corresponding to the package is received, including data elements associated with the roles. Data access locations are assigned to each data element and encrypted using the public keys of the corresponding roles. machine-readable codes are generated for each encrypted access location and printed on the package. User devices associated with the roles can scan the codes and use the private keys to decrypt the access locations and obtain the data elements for their respective roles.

Abstract: A system and method for affixing a signature using biometric authentication, is described herein. The system is configured for registering a user by receiving a set of biometric samples of the user, processing the set of biometric samples to compute a Secret-Key (S1) corresponding to the user, generating a Unique-Number (N1) using a random number generation algorithm, applying a Function (F1) to the Secret-Key (S1) and the Unique-Number (N1), to compute a Public-Key (P1), receiving a document signing request from an application. Once the user is registered, the system is configured to receive a biometric sample from the user in real-time and compute the Secret-Key (S2) for authenticating the user. Once the user is authenticated, the system may capture the user's approval to affix the user's signature to the document and transmit the user's signature to the application upon successful authentication of the user.
