  • Publication number: 20250045729
    Abstract: A card having an antenna, one or processors, and memory having stored thereon a first application and a second application configured to receive an input of the card and determine a request associated with the input. The card is further configured to activate, responsive to determining that the request is consistent with a contactless EuroPay-MasterCard-Visa (EMV) data standard, the first application. The first application is configured to communicate, via near field communication (NFC), data to the communicating device via the antenna based on the EMV data standard for payment purposes. The card is further configured to activate, responsive to determining that the request is consistent with a near field communication data exchange format (NDEF) standard, the second application. The second application is configured to communicate, via NFC, data to the communicating device via the antenna based on the NDEF standard for verification/identification purposes.

  • Patent number: 12216757
    Abstract: An authentication system comprises a browser extension and a password manager application. The browser extension can be configured for execution on a first user device. The browser extension can be configured to display a response code and receive a login credential from a server. The response code can comprise a unique session identifier identifying the browser extension and a user browsing session. The password manager application can be configured for execution on a second user device. The second user device can have a scanner configured to scan the response code. The password manager application can be configured to extract the unique session identifier, parse the unique session identifier into session identifier content, send a portion of the session identifier content to the server, receive an approval from a user of the second user device, and send a notification to the server.

  • Patent number: 12218930
    Abstract: Systems and methods for successively executing an operation over multiple communication networks. In some aspects, the system obtains first access information received from a physical token and generates an operation related to an aggregated virtual container. The system determines a first communication network from the first access information and transmits, via the first communication network, the operation associated with the aggregated virtual container. If the operation was not transmitted successfully via the first communication network, the system obtains second access information received from the physical token, determines a second communication network from the second access information, and transmits, via the second communication network, the operation associated with the aggregated virtual container. If the operation was transmitted successfully via the second communication network, the system generates for display a notification that the operation has been executed.

  • Patent number: 12205103
    Abstract: A contactless card can include a plurality of keys for a specific operation, e.g., encryption or signing a communication. The contactless card can also include an applet which uses a key selection module. The key selection module can select one of the plurality of keys and the applet can use the key to, e.g., encrypt or sign a communication using an encryption or signature algorithm. The contactless card can send the encrypted or signed communication to a host computer through a client device. The host computer can repeat the key selection technique of the contactless device to select the same key and thereby decrypt or verify the communication.

  • Patent number: 12206786
    Abstract: Systems, methods, articles of manufacture, and computer-readable media. A server may receive a phone call and generate a uniform resource locator (URL) comprising a session identifier for an account. The server may transmit the URL to a client device. The server may receive, from a web browser, a request comprising the URL. The server may determine that the session identifier in the URL of the request matches the session identifier for the account, and transmit, to the web browser, a web page at the URL. The server may receive, from the web browser, a cryptogram read by the web page via a card reader of the client device and decrypt the cryptogram. The server may authenticate the identity of the caller for the call based on decrypting the cryptogram and the session identifier of the URL matching the session identifier of the account.

  • Publication number: 20250014039
    Abstract: Example embodiments of systems, methods, and computer-accessible mediums for identity verification and transaction authentication are provided. An exemplary system can comprise an application, a user device, and a server. The application can prompt a removal of a card chip, prompt an insertion of the card chip into the user device, determine an orientation of the card chip after the insertion of the card chip into the user device, and transmit, to the card chip, a first message. The card chip can encrypt the first message via one or more authentication protocols to generate an encrypted first message, transmit, to the server, the encrypted first message. The server can decrypt the encrypted first message, verify the decrypted first message, and transmit a second message to the application, wherein the application is configured to display a verification notification in response to the second message.

  • Patent number: 12182797
    Abstract: In a method for broadcasting account provisioning information, user datum encryption information is transmitted to a plurality of account processing systems. A request to share account provisioning information is received from a user device associated with an account holder. A user datum of the account holder is encrypted using the encryption information and transmitted to the account processing systems. A response is received from at least one of the account processing systems, the response including an indication that the account holder has a transaction account processed by that account processing system. A request for confirmation that the account provisioning information should be shared is sent to the user device and a confirmation response is received from the user device that includes permission to share account provisioning information. Account provisioning information is then transmitted to one or more of the account processing systems.

  • Patent number: 12175447
    Abstract: Systems, methods, apparatuses, and computer-readable media for secure generation of one-time passcodes using a contactless card. In one example, an operating system (OS) of a device may receive a uniform resource locator (URL) and a cryptogram from a contactless card. The OS may launch an application associated with the URL. The application may transmit the cryptogram to an authentication server. The application may receive a decryption result from the authentication server indicating the authentication server decrypted the cryptogram. Based on the decryption result, the application may request an OTP. The processor may receive an OTP from an OTP generator. The application may receive an input value and compare the input value to a copy of the OTP. The application may determine that the comparison results in a match, and display, based on the determination that the comparison results in the match, one or more attributes of the account.
