Abstract: Purchasing, maintaining, and deriving revenue from mobile autonomous units is facilitated by providing a mobile autonomous unit marketplace in which equity shares in mobile autonomous units can be bought, sold and traded. Valuation of mobile autonomous units within the marketplace can be a function of a variety of factors such as the mobile autonomous unit's primary geographic region, and the number, diversity, and time management of revenue streams available to the mobile autonomous units.

Abstract: Identity management is disclosed that allows authentication of a user for a third party by way of an encrypted token. A biometric signature can be requested for a user of a user device. In response, an encrypted token can be generated based at least in part on the biometric signature. The encrypted token can then be provided back to the user device, which can save the encrypted token to a secure location on the user device accessible by biometric authentication of the user on the user device. An authentication request can be provided from a third party which includes an encrypted token. A determination can be made regarding whether user identity can be confirmed based on the encrypted token. An indication of whether the user identity was confirmed or unconfirmed can then be communicated in response to the authentication request.

Abstract: An example method includes receiving an encrypted biometric enrollment data and user identifier data. The encrypted biometric enrollment data includes at least one biometric enrollment sample from a user encrypted using an encryption key. The encryption key is generated based on a user secret and the user identifier is associated with the user. The user identifier is matched with a stored user secret. A decryption key is generated based on the stored user secret. The encrypted biometric enrollment data is decrypted using the decryption key. The at least one biometric enrollment sample is retrieved from the decrypted biometric enrollment data. The at least one biometric enrollment sample is processed using a biometric processing algorithm to generate a biometric reference template. A biometric reference template identifier uniquely identifying the biometric reference template is generated. An encryption key is generated based on the stored user secret and encrypts an enrollment confirmation message.

Abstract: Subscriber identity modules can be bound to devices and utilized for authentication. An initial or additional subscriber identity module can be bound to a user device, for instance after successful user authentication by way of an alternate mechanism. A subscriber identity module of a device can be identified, and carrier data associated with the subscriber identity module can be requested and received. A determination can be made regarding whether the subscriber identity module is linked to the device, for instance by an original linkage. A user profile can be automatically updated with the carrier data to bind the user to the user device based on the subscriber identity module when the subscriber identity module is verified to be linked to the user device. Subsequently, the subscriber identity module can be utilized as a basis for authentication.
