  • Publication number: 20220014515
    Abstract: Methods and systems for secure authentication of a first device through attestation by one or more other devices are described herein. A server may receive, from an untrusted client device, a request for access to one or more services associated with the server. The server may generate a challenge code. The server may send, to the untrusted client device, a request for attestation of the untrusted client device. The server may receive, from a trusted client device, an indication that the trusted client device attests to an identity of the untrusted client device. Based on the indication that the trusted client device attests to the identity of the untrusted client device, the server may grant, to the untrusted client device, access to the one or more services associated with the server.

  • Patent number: 11153303
    Abstract: Methods and systems for secure authentication of a first device through attestation by one or more other devices are described herein. A server used to authenticate the first device may transmit, to the first device, a request for attestation of the first device by one or more other devices. A user of the first device may attempt to find a user of a second device to attest to the identity of the first device and/or the user of the first device. Once the user of the second device attests to the identity of the first device and/or the user of the first device, the server device may receive, from the second device, an indication of the attestation. Based on the attestation, the server device may grant, to the first device, access to one or more services associated with the server device. One or more additional devices may be used to attest to the identity of the first device and/or the user of the first device.
