Patent number: 11671819Abstract: A communications management system for implementing a freeze on electronic transactions. For example, a device management system provides a means of preventing the porting of at least one communication device account—such as a cellular phone number—from one carrier to another through a list of identifiers that include phone numbers, device identifiers, or personal identifiers that have been enrolled in the device management system through an interface by an authorized user. Advantageously, the device management system provides a revision to the existing phone porting architecture and enables fraud detection and prevention.Type: GrantFiled: December 1, 2021Date of Patent: June 6, 2023Assignee: PROVE IDENTITY, INC.Inventors: Rodger Desai, Jeffrey Naujok, Christopher Cunningham, Greg Bonin

Publication number: 20220350878Abstract: Methods, apparatuses, and/or articles of manufacture may be implemented to authenticate a subscriber of a communications device. The method may include receiving, via a server coupled to a network, a first signal that indicates a modification of one or more location descriptors corresponding to a communications device. The modification may occur in connection with receipt of the one or more location descriptors by an emergency services provider. The method may include storing a record of the modification of the one or more location descriptors in response to creation of one or more new location descriptors corresponding to a subscriber identifier, modification of one or more previously existing location descriptors corresponding to the subscriber identifier, or deletion of the subscriber identifier. The method may additionally include generating a second signal to form or update an electronic or digital identity of the communications device responsive to receiving the first signal.Type: ApplicationFiled: April 30, 2021Publication date: November 3, 2022Inventors: Jeffrey Robert Naujok, Greg Bonin, Christopher Cunningham

Patent number: 11483710Abstract: Example methods, apparatuses, and/or articles of manufacture may be implemented to utilize a computing device to receive, from a communications network, a first signal to indicate that a subscriber, such as a subscriber of a mobile communication services carrier, has initiated an electronic transaction. The method may include detecting, utilizing one or more data stores, a record of a transfer of a subscriber account identifier and, in response, determining whether the transfer corresponds to a porting event initiated by a subscriber or initiated by a communication services carrier. The method may further include transmitting at least a second signal on the communications network, in which the at least the second signal indicates authentication, authorization, and/or verification of the electronic or digital transaction responsive to determining whether the transfer corresponds to a porting event initiated by a subscriber or corresponds to an event initiated by a communication services carrier.Type: GrantFiled: December 1, 2020Date of Patent: October 25, 2022Assignee: Prove Identity, Inc.Inventors: Jeffrey Naujok, Christopher Cunningham, Greg Bonin

Publication number: 20210092227Abstract: Briefly, claimed subject matter may relate to a caller verification system having a signaling resource for forming a communications channel for a call placed between a call source and a call destination. The signaling resource may generate a call setup record having parameters relevant to the formed communications channel. The call verification system may additionally include a call verification device that provides call parameters to the signaling resource and receives from the signaling resource, an indication of a match between the provided call parameters and the parameters of the call setup record.Type: ApplicationFiled: September 24, 2020Publication date: March 25, 2021Inventors: Jeffrey Naujok, Christopher Cunningham, Greg Bonin
