Publication number: 20240414003Abstract: A system for protecting personal information uses a challenge and an encrypted copy of the challenge in the form of a message authentication code (MAC) to provide authentication among multiple parties. The challenge is received by a first party from a second party. The challenge is encrypted by the first party to form the MAC and then both the challenge and the MAC are returned to the second party. The second party authenticates the first party by confirming the challenge. The second party sends the MAC and challenge to the third party. The third party decrypts the MAC using a key shared with the first party. When the decrypted MAC matches the challenge, the first party is authenticated to the third party. The process is applicable to transaction processing to limit compromise of payment instrument details.Type: ApplicationFiled: August 19, 2024Publication date: December 12, 2024Applicant: Visa International Service AssociationInventors: Hari Krishna Annam, Selva Ganesh Vasudevan

Publication number: 20240405994Abstract: A method is disclosed. The method can be performed by at least a mobile device comprising a processor, and memory and display coupled to the processor, the memory storing an application comprising an SDK. The method comprises transmitting, by the SDK, an access credential identifier associated with a main credential to a processing computer. The processing computer then initiates an authentication process with respect to a user of the main credential. The processing computer then receives the main credential and additional data associated with the main credential. The method then includes the SDK receives the main credential and additional data from the processing computer. After the SDK receives the data, the main credential and the additional data are displayed on a display of the mobile device via the SDK.Type: ApplicationFiled: September 19, 2022Publication date: December 5, 2024Applicant: Visa International Service AssociationInventors: Penny Jurss, Debopam Das, Suresh Kalakrishnan, Hari Krishna Annam

Patent number: 11909727Abstract: An Internet-connected device, such as a car, refrigerator, or even a laptop can use a second device, such as a cell phone, to support cryptographic operations and communication with token service providers or other processing services requiring pre-provisioned capabilities that may include cryptographic secrets. By removing the need to store personally sensitive data in “Internet of Things” (IoT) devices, a user's personal information and other sensitive financial information may be contained to a relatively small number of devices. This may help prevent theft of goods or services by IoT devices that are not always under the close control of the user.Type: GrantFiled: August 31, 2022Date of Patent: February 20, 2024Assignee: Visa International Service AssociationInventors: Hari Krishna Annam, Mohit Gupta, Soumendra Bhattacharya
