Patent number: 10776479Abstract: Systems and methods for providing authentication include receiving an authentication passcode input through an input device of a user device from a first user. The first user is authenticated in response to the authentication passcode input matching at least one user authentication passcode in a database, and an authentication time period is associated with the authentication of the first user and allows the first user access to at least one application on the user device. A plurality of authentication factors are then detected using the user device, and plurality of authentication factors are not an authentication passcode input received through the input device. The plurality of authentication factors are then determined to match the at least one authentication profile in the database and, in response, the authentication time period is extended such that the first user is allowed continued access to the at least one application on the user device.Type: GrantFiled: February 13, 2017Date of Patent: September 15, 2020Assignee: PAYPAL, INC.Inventors: Geoffrey W.

Publication number: 20160098552Abstract: Systems and methods for authenticating a user include a wearable user device receiving a first request to access a secure system. A plurality of authentication elements are then displayed on a display device to a user eye in a first authentication orientation about a perimeter of an authentication element input area. A user hand located opposite the display device from the user eye is then detected selecting a sequence of the plurality of authentication elements. For each selected authentication element in the sequence, the wearable user device moves the selected authentication element based on a detected movement of the user hand and records the selected authentication element as a portion of an authentication input in response to the user hand moving the selected authentication element to the authentication element input area. The user is authenticated for the secure system if the authentication input matches stored user authentication information.Type: ApplicationFiled: December 15, 2015Publication date: April 7, 2016Inventors: Geoffrey W.
