Publication number: 20240114037Abstract: There are provided systems and methods for targeted authentication queries based on detected user actions. A user may perform various actions during a day, including online, electronic, or digital actions, such as social networking, messaging, and media consumption, as well as real-life actions, such as exercise, travel, and purchases. The actions may be used to determine a user history for the user by a service provider. When the user wishes to login to an account or otherwise authenticate the identity of the user, the user may provide login or authentication credentials. The credentials may be used to look up the user history and cause the service provider to generate an authentication—query for the user based on events associated with the user in the user history. The query may be utilized to further authenticate the user by requiring the user to respond with the event associated with the user.Type: ApplicationFiled: October 13, 2023Publication date: April 4, 2024Inventors: Michael Charles Todasco, Sumeet Ahuja, Geetha Kuppuswamy, Prashanthi Ravanavarapu

Patent number: 11755714Abstract: Various systems, mediums, and methods herein describe aspects of an authentication system. The system may receive a request from a user device to authenticate a user. The system may determine a route travelled by the user. The route can be determined based at least on data retrieved from the user device of the user. The system may determine one or more objects viewable along the route. At least one image of the one or more objects can be selected. The system may communicate the at least one image and at least one other image to the user device to be displayed on the user device. The system may receive a selection of the at least one image by the user through a display of the user device. The authentication of the user can be based, at least in part, on the user selection of the at least one image.Type: GrantFiled: July 15, 2022Date of Patent: September 12, 2023Assignee: PAYPAL, INC.Inventors: Michael Charles Todasco, Sumeet Ahuja, Prashanthi Ravanavarapu, Geetha Kuppuswamy, Dushyanth Bharadwaj

Publication number: 20180349953Abstract: A computer system determines that an item has been selected for purchase by a user on a user device. In response to determining that the item has been selected for purchase, the computer system determines that the purchase of the item was not completed. In response to determining that the purchase of the item was not completed, the computer system analyzes activity associated with the user device, and based on the analyzed activity, predicts whether the user intended to complete the purchase. In response to predicting that the user intended to complete the purchase, the computer system causes a communication corresponding to the item to be presented to the user.Type: ApplicationFiled: May 30, 2017Publication date: December 6, 2018Inventors: Cheng Tian, Michael Charles Todasco, Philip Chuang, Prashanthi Ravanavarapu, Aziz Jawadwala, Ashley Papagno, Anush Vishwanath
