  • Publication number: 20240005820
    Abstract: A system for bidirectional two-factor remote user authentication includes a workflow engine comprising one or more processors and at least one memory element for storing instructions. The system further includes a client device with one or more processors, a display, and a user login interface. The workflow engine generates and encrypts one or more login identifiers, which is visually encoded as an authentication image and displayed on the terminal's display. An electronic device, also connected to the workflow engine, includes a password, a display with a graphical user interface, one or more processors, and at least one memory element. The device's authentication identifier reader decrypts the one or more login identifiers from the authentication image and compares it with the password to determine a match. Upon a match, the device transmits an authorization for the login request to the workflow engine.

  • Patent number: 9325690
    Abstract: Concepts and technologies are disclosed herein for verifying sender information. According to various embodiments of the concepts and technologies disclosed herein, a verification service can determine, receive a request, or receive a call to verify sender information associated with data. The server computer generates and delivers a verification message to a sender device in response to determining that sender information verification is to be provided. The server computer receives a response indicating if the data was sent by the sender device. If the response indicates that the sender device did not send the data, the server computer can block delivery of the data, generate alarms or alerts, take other actions, and/or take no action. If the response indicates that the sender device sent the data, the server computer can deliver the data, provide a verification response to the recipient device, take no action, and/or take other actions.
