Patent number: 12182739Abstract: Communications over short-range connections are used to facilitate whether access to resources is to be granted. For example, upon device discovery of one of an electronic user device and an electronic client device by the other device over a Bluetooth Low Energy connection, an access-enabling code associated with a user device or account can be evaluated for validity and applicability with respect to one or more particular resource specifications. User identity can be verified by comparing the user against previously obtained biometric information.Type: GrantFiled: December 18, 2023Date of Patent: December 31, 2024Assignee: Live Nation Entertainment, Inc.Inventors: Kenneth Ives-Halperin, Harry C. Evans, David Johnson, Scott Wall, David Lilly, Ajay Pondicherry

Patent number: 12143384Abstract: A resource-access management system detects whether a user is authorized to access resources. The system may include a user device being configured to include a sensor that detects sensor data associated with the user. Further, the system includes a client qualification engine that determines whether or not a client is authorized to access the resources by comparing the sensor data with a plurality of patterns for evaluating whether or not the user is an authorized user. User scores are generated based on the compared sensor data and the plurality of patterns. Further, a composite score corresponding to the user is generated using the sensor data, plurality of patterns, and one or more additional criteria. Whether the user is granted access to the resources, presented with unauthorized user tests, or blocked from access to the resources depends on the composite score and threshold values.Type: GrantFiled: July 5, 2023Date of Patent: November 12, 2024Assignee: Live Nation Entertainment, Inc.Inventors: Fengpei Du, Michael Lane, Kenneth Ives-Halperin

Publication number: 20240056450Abstract: Authentication systems and methods can selectively authenticate a request to access a resource data store storing access rights associated with a user device. The systems and methods can scalably execute challenges workflows as part of the authentication process. For example, a request to access one or more access rights stored in the data store can be received from the user device. The user device can be authenticated using challenge workflows selected based on a device identifier of the user device. The selected challenge workflows can be executed to determine whether or not to grant access to the access rights stored in the resource data store.Type: ApplicationFiled: October 27, 2023Publication date: February 15, 2024Applicant: Live Nation Entertainment, Inc.Inventors: Dan Cernoch, Ajay Pondicherry, David Refsland, Kenneth Ives-Halperin

Patent number: 11848765Abstract: Systems and methods for selecting tiering protocols based on data transmissions over mesh networks within defined spatial areas can be provided. A mesh network can be established within a defined spatial area. Each network device within the mesh network can be a user device or a supernode. Further, a wireless communication link can be established between the user devices and supernodes. A plurality of tiered protocols for tiering data transmissions can be accessed. Data to be transmitted over the mesh network can be analyzed to determine which tiered protocol to select. Path data that identifies a routing path from the a user device to a supernode can be generated, and the data can be transmitted according to the path data.Type: GrantFiled: November 18, 2022Date of Patent: December 19, 2023Assignee: Live Nation Entertainment, Inc.Inventors: Kenneth Ives-Halperin, Jeffrey Kelsey, Jon Flanders, Yen Hoang
