  • Publication number: 20250016153
    Abstract: Systems and methods are provided for verifying attributes of users in connection with network interactions involving the users. An example computer-implemented method includes receiving an authentication request (AReq) in connection with an interaction related to an age-restricted product, where the AReq includes an account number for a user and an age verification signal. The method also includes, in response to the age verification signal, retrieving a birthdate of the user, determining an age of the user based on the birthdate of the user, and determining the age of the user satisfies a defined threshold. The method then includes, in response to the age of the user satisfying the defined threshold, causing a challenge question to be issued to the user, whereby authentication of the user is initiated through a mobile device of the user.

  • Patent number: 10673812
    Abstract: A network translation (NT) computing device generates a routing table for a global network including a plurality of local networks. Each local network is associated with a local network identifier of the routing table and includes at least one network-addressable (NA) computing device. The NT computing device stores the routing table in a routing database and receives a data packet having a recipient address from a first local network. The recipient address includes a local network identifier associated with a second local network and an internet protocol (IP) address for a recipient NA computing device within the second local network. The NT computing device extracts the local network identifier from the recipient address, compares the local network identifier to the routing table, and transmits the data packet with the IP address to the second local network to be transmitted to the recipient NA computing device based on the comparison.
