  • Publication number: 20190164158
    Abstract: A device may determine that a verification method associated with a transaction card is to be modified from a first verification method to a second verification method. The first verification method and the second verification method may use different types of verification information. The device may provide a set of instructions to the transaction card after determining that the verification method is to be modified. The set of instructions may cause the transaction card to modify the verification method from the first verification method to the second verification method. The device may provide information identifying a modification to the verification method to a transaction backend device to notify the transaction backend device that the verification method associated with the transaction card has been modified from the first verification method to the second verification method.

  • Publication number: 20190132281
    Abstract: A two-tier Anycast addressing hierarchy enables deterministic traffic management in an Anycast system. Different locations of the Anycast system advertise a common Anycast cover route comprising a first-tier Anycast address with a first address prefix, and different specific routes comprising a set of second-tier Anycast addresses with a second address prefix, wherein each address of the set of second-tier Anycast addresses falls within the already advertised Anycast cover route, and wherein the second prefix is larger than the first prefix. Domain Name System (DNS) operation can resolve queries to the cover route when normal Anycast operation is desired or can be modified to resolve a subset of queries to a particular second-tier address in order to shift a deterministic amount of traffic based on the resolved subset of queries to a deterministically selected Anycast system location based on the location from which the particular second-tier address is advertised.

  • Publication number: 20190114642
    Abstract: An example transaction card may include a sensor to measure movement of the transaction card and one or more processors to monitor the movement of the transaction card via the sensor during a tracking period; determine measurements of a gait of a user during the tracking period from the movement of the transaction card during the tracking period; compare the measurements of the gait of the user during the tracking period and a gait signature associated with the transaction card; and/or perform an action associated with the transaction card based on a result of comparing the measurements of the gait of the user during the tracking period and the gait signature.

  • Patent number: 10217105
    Abstract: A transaction card may determine to initiate a mode associated with the transaction card. The mode may be related to locating the transaction card. The mode may be associated with outputting a first signal. The transaction card may determine a manner in which to configure the mode based on a set of parameters. The set of parameters may include a power level of the transaction card, or a strength of a second signal associated with a connection between the transaction card and a device associated with the transaction card. The transaction card may initiate the mode after configuring the mode. The transaction card may determine to terminate the mode based on an indication that the transaction card has been located.

  • Patent number: 10218412
    Abstract: In some implementations, a near field communication (NFC) device may determine whether the NFC device is to perform a wireless transaction in a powered mode or an unpowered mode, and may selectively perform the wireless transaction in the powered mode or the unpowered mode based on determining whether the NFC device is to perform the wireless transaction in the powered mode or the unpowered mode. The wireless transaction may be performed using power from a power source internal to the NFC device when the wireless transaction is performed in the powered mode. The wireless transaction may be performed without using power from the power source internal to the NFC device when the wireless transaction is performed in the unpowered mode.

  • Publication number: 20180194323
    Abstract: The keyless entry system (KES) controls access to a vehicle's doors, trunk, hood, etc., through a keyless entry device (e.g., a key fob) using wireless communication with the vehicle. The technology described here mitigates vulnerabilities in the KES implementation by employing a device configured to suppress a keyless entry command until an additional means of authentication is verified, at which point the keyless entry command is unsuppressed.
