Patent number: 11943366Abstract: An authentication system facilitates a transfer of enrollment in authentication services between client devices. The authentication system enrolls a client device in authentication services to enable the client device to be used for authenticating requests to access one or more services. As part of enrolling the client device, the authentication system receives authentication enrollment information for the client device that is associated with one or more authentication credentials securely stored on the client device (e.g., a multi-factor authentication (MFA) certificate). The authentication system facilitates one or more processes for transferring the enrollment from an enrolled client device to a non-enrolled client device that limit the number and complexity of actions performed by the user.Type: GrantFiled: December 19, 2022Date of Patent: March 26, 2024Inventors: Chandra Shirashyad, Ildar Abdullin, Umang Shah, Naveen Kumar Keerthy, Cedric Beust

Patent number: 11477249Abstract: An identity provider (“IdP”) system maintains a framework of authentication methods and security targets that enables flexible authentication policy authoring and analysis of authentication performed by users of an organization. The IdP system generates authentication method profiles that include authentication factors and attributes, which may be further classified as required or optional. The IdP system also generates security target profiles that indicate security requirements needed to satisfy the corresponding security targets. The IdP system uses the generated profiles to determine relationships between authentication methods and security targets (e.g., a list of authentication methods that satisfy a given security target). Using these relationships, the IdP system may enable users to author policies and analyze how users' authentication behaviors comply with security targets.Type: GrantFiled: January 29, 2021Date of Patent: October 18, 2022Assignee: Okta, Inc.Inventors: Naomaru Itoi, Sam Sanjabi, Royal Chan, Vincent Voong, Daniel Jeffrey Post, Cedric Beust

Patent number: 11394672Abstract: One or more computing devices, systems, and/or methods for hosting virtual chat rooms of a chat room are provided. For example, users (e.g., 3,000 users) may access video interfaces, hosting a video, and chat room interfaces associated with a chat room for the video (e.g., users may access a news website providing a live stream of a current event along with a chat room for discussing the live stream). Signals of the users (e.g., a user location, age, account profile information, prior chat room message behavior, etc.) are evaluated to identify user properties (e.g., the user is an active participant within chat rooms). The chat room may be sharded into a set of virtual chat rooms into which users are assigned based upon the user properties (e.g., 300 virtual chat rooms of 100 users each). In this way, users may have more meaningful interactions within the smaller virtual chat rooms.Type: GrantFiled: October 6, 2020Date of Patent: July 19, 2022Assignee: Verizon Patent and Licensing Inc.Inventor: Cédric Beust

Patent number: 11265403Abstract: Systems and techniques, including computer software, for retrieving information to a mobile device involve installing a data retrieval application on the mobile device. The data retrieval application includes instructions for presenting a structured data display on the mobile device, defining a structure of the structured data display, requesting selected hyperlinks included in the structured data display, and rendering markup language information received in response to the selected hyperlinks. A user request to retrieve data through the data retrieval application is received, and data is retrieved in response to the received user request. The retrieved data is displayed according to the structure of the structured data display, and a user can select a hyperlink in the displayed data to retrieve and render markup language information using the data retrieval application.Type: GrantFiled: February 20, 2020Date of Patent: March 1, 2022Assignee: GOOGLE LLCInventors: Elad Gil, Shumeet Baluja, Maryam Garrett, Cedric Beust

Patent number: 10387919Abstract: A communications device for providing content to a user is discussed. The device includes a communications interface configured to communicate with a remote server over a bandwidth-constrained wireless network having an inherent delay, a cache, a graphical display, and a content coordinator configured to obtain content. The content includes first content, and second content predicted by the remote server system as being directed to a category of a future information request. The content coordinator is also configured to store the received second content in the cache, receive a second information request, determine that the second information request is a request for content related to the specified category, identify some of the stored second content that corresponds to the specified category, and to display some of the identified stored second content during retrieval of responses to the second information request in less time than the inherent delay.Type: GrantFiled: April 12, 2016Date of Patent: August 20, 2019Assignee: Google LLCInventors: Shumeet Baluja, Maryam Garrett, Cedric Beust, Elad Gil

Patent number: 10200322Abstract: Methods for responding to an email message by a phone call from a mobile device are described. In some embodiments, mobile devices are capable of receiving emails. The emails may be in form of messages in a threaded conversation. Each message has metadata and the metadata includes a phone number corresponding to a sender of the message. The text or information associated with the message is displayed but not the metadata. While a user is reading the message displayed on the mobile device, the user is provided with a plurality of options to respond to the message, an option is for the user to call the sender of the message using the phone number in the metadata. Upon selecting such an option, the user is able to initiate a call to the sender of the message by activating a feature to call using the phone number stored in the metadata without physically looking up and dialing the sender's number. Other embodiments are also described.Type: GrantFiled: January 15, 2016Date of Patent: February 5, 2019Assignee: Google LLCInventors: Jimmy S.
