  • Publication number: 20240098074
    Abstract: A wireless system can be used to authenticate a user device via proximity information of wireless network devices. The system can include the user device, the wireless network devices, and a server. At least some of the wireless network devices can be wirelessly connected to the user device and at least some other wireless network devices can be wirelessly unconnected to the user device. The server can use proximity information about the user device with respect to the wireless network devices to authenticate a user.

  • Publication number: 20240061924
    Abstract: In some examples, a computing device can receive information about different gestures and output different application pages of an application, depending on the type of gesture associated with the information received. Mappings can be used to determine the application page to output a command to display, based on the gesture.

  • Patent number: 11475118
    Abstract: A mobile computing device can include a processing unit, wireless communication interfaces, and a computer-readable memory including instructions executable by the processing unit to cause the device to perform various operations. The device may receive a request to access an application includes application pages that may be configured to provide functional features of the application, and in response to receiving the request, may present an authentication user interface (UI) and may detect a gesture from a user by the UI. The device may transmit the gesture to an authentication server and may receive a confirmation from the server that the user has been successfully authenticated. The device may determine a specific application page to present to the user based on the gesture by accessing mappings between the application pages and corresponding gestures. The specific application page, providing functional features, can be presented to the user by the device.

  • Publication number: 20220229927
    Abstract: A relative risk can be determined using an originating Internet Protocol (IP) address as an identifying factor for purposes of authenticating a user. The originating IP address can be used as an identifying factor for a particular user account to determine potentially fraudulent activity and reduce the risk of fraud. This additional identifying factor can be used as a part of an overall authentication platform to help screen fraud attempts and to authenticate valid and non-fraudulent users. Using certain aspects can distinguish whether originating IP addresses are public or private. Some examples can track and match originating IP addresses to user accounts and also can keep track of recently active sessions for each IP address.

  • Patent number: 10536466
    Abstract: A network interface device can (i) detect electronic communications from a telecommunications network; (ii) extract an access request for protected data; and (iii) extract browser information about a browser on a user device used by a user to initiate the access request. The access request can include a network address of a device from which the electronic communications were transmitted. The browser information can indicate a time zone associated with the browser. The network address and the browser information can be independent of data about the user and of data transmitted from the network interface device. The network address and stored data about network addresses can be used to determine a time zone for the device. A result of comparing the time zones can be used to determine a level of authentication to require before allowing the protected data to be transmitted to the user device.

  • Patent number: 8606251
    Abstract: A mobile terminal includes a processor operatively associated with a radio communications circuit and configured to store a podcast including an embedded link to content outside of the mobile terminal. The processor is further configured to control activation of the embedded link responsive to a communications status of the mobile terminal and/or a configuration of a user interface of the mobile terminal. For example, the communications status may include availability of communications between the mobile terminal and a storage location of the content, or presence of a particular call and/or a message. The user interface configuration may include, for example, a current display mode or physical arrangement of the terminal.

  • Patent number: 8395584
    Abstract: A mobile terminal includes a housing, a first user interface located on a first face of the housing, a second user interface located on a second face of the housing different from the first face, and a controller within the housing and coupled to the first and second user interfaces. The second user interface includes a touch sensor configured to be used in tandem with the first user interface. The second user interface is positioned on the housing relative to the first user interface such that, when the mobile terminal is held in the user's hand, the first user interface is operable by a thumb and the second user interface is operable by a finger of the same hand. The first user interface is configured to receive a first user input, and the second user interface is configured to receive a second user input.

  • Patent number: 7697941
    Abstract: A wireless communications device that sends and receives presence status information is configured to detect when it is proximate a predefined zone. A receiver in the wireless communications device receives presence information from a transmitter associated with the predefined zone. The presence information defines a new presence status for the wireless communications device, and may include an indicator associated with the new presence status. Upon receipt of the presence information, a controller in the wireless communications device automatically changes the current presence status of the wireless communications device to the new presence status, and publishes the changed status to a remote entity. If the new presence status is not defined in memory, the controller may add the new presence status to memory.
