Patent number: 9654480Abstract: Systems and methods are provided for providing generating and managing profiles. Such systems and methods may be implemented to control access to a function of a web server or site based on a level of trust associated with a user or device profile. According to one exemplary method, session information associated with a request to access a function of a web server is identified. At least one processor determines whether the request is associated with a trusted device profile based on the at least the session information. Access to the requested function is provided when the request is associated with a trusted device profile.Type: GrantFiled: June 20, 2016Date of Patent: May 16, 2017Assignee: AOL Inc.Inventors: Scott Dorfman, Richard Rodriguez-Val

Patent number: 7822703Abstract: A system and method are described for verifying a user. More specifically, a user contacts a goods or service provider and gives that provider information about himself or herself in order to register for receipt of goods or services. The provider then uses this information along with other information detected from another source, such as a network provider, to verify that the user is providing accurate information. Once the provider has determined that the information provided by the user is accurate, the user is allowed to register for certain services or purchase goods. A component of these systems and methods is to perform format and frequency of usage checks on the received data from the user and/or the network provider.Type: GrantFiled: December 31, 2001Date of Patent: October 26, 2010Assignee: AOL LLCInventors: Richard Rodriguez-Val, Laura Laughlin, Robert Aaronson, Fady Semaan

Patent number: 7814230Abstract: Enabling a host system to communicate with and to identify at least one client device that communicates with the host system through a network address translator device includes enabling communications from a first client device through the network address translator device. A data packet is received that includes a payload portion and an attribute portion, where the attribute portion includes a destination address that indicates a destination for the data packet and a nearest source address. A portion of the received data packet other than the nearest source address is examined for a host-assigned identifier that identifies a client device that communicated the received data packet. The received data packet typically is processed in accordance with predetermined host system controls accessible to the host system for the first client device identified, such as host-enabled parental controls.Type: GrantFiled: December 18, 2008Date of Patent: October 12, 2010Inventors: Richard Rodriguez-Val, Richard A. Watson, Jr.
