Abstract: Systems and methods may provide for determining a composite false match rate for a plurality of authentication factors in a client device environment. Additionally, the composite false match rate can be mapped to a score, wherein an attestation message is generated based on the score. In one example, the score is associated with one or more of a standardized range and a standardized level.

Abstract: Systems and methods may provide for receiving runtime input from one or more unlock interfaces of a device and selecting a level of access with regard to the device from a plurality of levels of access based on the runtime input. The selected level of access may have an associated security policy, wherein an authentication of the runtime input may be conducted based on the associated security policy. In one example, one or more cryptographic keys are used to place the device in an unlocked state with regard to the selected level of access if the authentication is successful. If the authentication is unsuccessful, on the other hand, the device may be maintained in a locked state with regard to the selected level of access.

Abstract: A system and method includes obtaining reviews from an electronic commerce site, generating statistics via a specifically programmed machine regarding the reviews by reviewers, identifying reviewers via the machine having statistics indicative of a compensated reviewer, generating scores via the machine for the reviewers indicative of a probability that each reviewer is a compensated reviewer. The method may further or alternatively include monitoring user interactions via a specifically programmed machine with electronic commerce generated content with respect to reviews of products, and providing a reviewer score via the machine responsive to such user interactions, wherein the score is representative of the probability that a reviewer generating the score is compensated with respect to providing reviews.

Abstract: A system includes a first mobile device configured to initiate communication with at least one other mobile device. The first mobile device includes a status indicator configured to provide a persistent visual indication to a user of the status of a mute function of the first user device during the active communication. The first mobile device further includes a user interface configured to receive predefined user input and allow the user to toggle between mute and un-mute states based on the user input regardless of whether a display of the device is shut off and/or the user interface is locked.

Abstract: A select-hold-release navigation system is described. An apparatus may comprise a select-hold-release navigation application operative on a processor circuit to present a navigation menu rotationally displaying one or more navigation elements based on user input received at the apparatus. The select-hold-release navigation application may be operative on the processor circuit to present a navigation menu rotationally displaying one or more navigation elements based on navigation input received at the apparatus, the navigation input comprising control directives generated by an input device coupled to the apparatus sustained for a defined duration and being associated with a navigation capable area. Other embodiments are described and claimed.

Abstract: Systems and methods may provide for implementing a counteroffer generation service. In one example, the method may include detecting an inquiry relating to an item offered by a vendor, analyzing the inquiry to determine the item, generating a counteroffer relating to the item, generating counteroffer code including the counteroffer relating to the item, and conducting a transaction relating to the item utilizing the counteroffer code.

Abstract: A method is provided to track geolocations of multiple mobile location tracking enabled devices, each such device associated with at least one member of a group of subjects; one of the devices sends a map image of a real-world location and indicia of geofence to each of the other devices; each of multiple devices sends its geolocation to at least one other device in the group; the at least one device in the group displays the respective geolocations of the other devices relative to the map image and relative to the geofence image; an alert is generated by the at least one other device in the group in response to a determination that at least one of the devices in the group is disposed outside the geofence or within a prescribed distance from the geofence.

Abstract: A method and apparatus for handling messaging service message adaptation. An original message is received from an originating communication device, the original message based on a wireless communication message protocol, the original message being of a first message type. The message is modified according to preferences of a message recipient communication device to generate a second message of a second message type. The second message is sent to the message recipient communication device. A modification notification is sent to the originating communication device, the modification notification indicating that the original message was modified.
