  • Privacy-preserving identity data exchange
    Patent number: 12675598
    Abstract: A method is disclosed. The method comprises receiving, by a digital identity computer, a request for personal data associated with a user. The digital identity computer may retrieve encrypted personal data, wherein the personal data is encrypted with a public key associated with the user. The digital identity computer may encrypt the encrypted personal data with a first public key associated with a relying party or derivative thereof to form subsequently encrypted personal data. The method may then proceed to transmit the subsequently encrypted personal data or derivative thereof to a relying party computer, or a user device. If the user device receives the subsequently encrypted personal data, the user device may thereafter transmit the subsequently encrypted personal data or derivative thereof to the relying party computer. Then, the relying party computer obtains the personal data from the subsequently encrypted personal data or derivative thereof.

  • SECURE DATA EXCHANGE MATCHING ACROSS IDENTITY PROVIDERS
    Publication number: 20250279888
    Abstract: A method includes receiving a first encrypted first identity attribute. A first doubly encrypted first identity attribute is formed by encrypting the first encrypted first identity attribute. A second doubly encrypted first identity attribute is formed by encrypting the first encrypted first identity attribute. They are transmitted to a user device, which removes a user layer of encryption on each to form a second encrypted first identity attribute and a third encrypted first identity attribute. Layers of encryption are added to the second encrypted first identity attribute to form a third doubly encrypted first identity attribute and the third encrypted first identity attribute to form a fourth doubly encrypted first identity attribute. The server computer receives them and transmits, to the second identity provider computer, the fourth doubly encrypted first identity attribute. The second identity provider computer obtains a first identity attribute and compares it to a second identity attribute.
