  • Patent number: 12657277
    Abstract: Methods of verifying a user's identity using trusted members of the user's community are provided. Users may request trusted friends and family members register as vouching users. If a user needs to confirm the user's identity, such as during a multifactor authentication verification or in the event of a forgotten credential, vouching users may be called upon to verify user identity. Vouching users may confirm a user's identity via a group communication session or by proving physical proximity to the user. Physical proximity may be proven by tapping a token, such as an electronic device or a transaction card, to either the user's device and/or the vouching user's device. Using trusted friends and family members to verify a user's identity safeguards online accounts from deep fake AI creations and protects susceptible online users from phishing schemes and social engineering attacks.

  • Patent number: 12632689
    Abstract: In some implementations, an integrated circuit may receive, from the front-end device and at a communication device embedded in a substrate, an incoming signal indicating a request for information. Accordingly, the integrated circuit may verify that at least one correct contact, of a plurality of contacts on the substrate, has been connected to circuitry embedded in the substrate. Therefore, the integrated circuit may transmit, to the front-end device and using the communication device, an outgoing signal responding to the request for information based on verifying that the at least one correct contact has been connected.

  • Patent number: 12614053
    Abstract: Exemplary embodiments relate to updatable displays for transaction cards, such as credit cards or event passes. The displays may be, for instance, an electrophoretic or memory liquid crystal diode display. The transaction card may include a contact pad capable of engaging in wireless communication. Information may be exchanged between the transaction card and a mobile device or terminal, where a processor on the mobile device processes the received information to generate displayable information. The processor updates the display with the displayable information. The contact pad may be electrically connected to the display, and the display may derive electrical power to perform the updating from the wireless communication. For example, where the wireless communication is a near field communication (NFC), a radio frequency field may be generated that supplies enough power to run the processor and at least partially update the display.

  • Patent number: 12538341
    Abstract: Methods and systems for limiting resource access based on user input using an authentication token. In some aspects, the authentication token receives user input indicating a first allocation for a first resource access to be executed at a first time. The authentication token generates recommendations for a second allocation related to the first allocation. The user selects a second allocation. At the first time, the authentication token receives a first resource access request and executes the first allocation. The authentication token also transmits first metadata to an access approval system. At the second time, in response to a second resource access request, the authentication token or the access approval system compares the second resource access request to the first metadata or the second allocation to approve or decline the second resource access request.

  • Patent number: 12518308
    Abstract: Disclosed are methods and systems for determining similarity of online items. For instance, an identifier of a first web page associated with a first item navigated to by a browser may be received from a browser extension application executing on a computing device. Image(s) and text may be extracted from the first web page and provided as input to a machine learning model along with image(s) and text extracted from a second web page of a plurality of web pages associated with a second item of a plurality of items that are stored in a data store. A probability at/above a predefined threshold that the first and second items are the same item may be received as output. A notification indicating identification of the second item as the same item and including information associated with the second item may be generated and provided to the browser extension application for display.

  • Publication number: 20250378201
    Abstract: Aspects described herein may obfuscate publicly available personal information by publishing generated synthetic user personal data to one or more sites. By publishing the generated synthetic personal data to one or more sites, a user's actual personal data will be more difficult to discern and/or detect, resulting in greater privacy, security, and/or control of personal information. A machine learning model may be trained to generate synthetic personal data based on verified personal data and/or training datasets. Upon receiving a request from a user, the machine learning model may generate synthetic personal data, which appears similar to the publicly available information but includes false and/or inaccurate data and/or information about the user. The generated synthetic personal data and/or information may be disseminated to a plurality of sites to hide, or otherwise obfuscate, the user's actual data and/or information.
