Publication number: 20240107310Abstract: A system described herein may maintain policy information associating a plurality of network credentials with respective device identifiers of User Equipment (“UEs”) that are authorized to use respective network credentials to access a network. The system may receive network monitoring information indicating that a particular UE, associated with a particular device identifier, is accessing the network using a particular network credential; compare the particular device identifier and the particular network credential to the policy information; determine, based on comparing the particular device identifier and the particular network credential to the policy information, that the particular UE is not authorized to use the particular network credential; and output a notification to the network that the particular UE is not authorized to use the particular network credential to access the network, wherein the network suspends the particular network credential based on the notification.Type: ApplicationFiled: September 26, 2022Publication date: March 28, 2024Applicant: Verizon Patent and Licensing Inc.Inventors: Suresh Ramaswamy, Samuel K.

Publication number: 20230171257Abstract: Disclosed are systems and methods that provide a framework that enables user to delegate other users as operators of their securely held account credentials via services backed by OAuth protocols. The disclosed framework provides functionality for users to be delegated access to other users' account credentials, information and resources for the performance of specific electronic transactions. The framework operates by connecting two OAuth registered users so that one user can perform an electronic transaction using another user's securely held credentials upon approval by the other user. This ensures that each electronic transaction is securely held and performed, and operated under the control of the delegator despite performance of the transaction by the delegatee involving the delegator's account information.Type: ApplicationFiled: November 29, 2021Publication date: June 1, 2023Applicant: VERIZON PATENT AND LICENSING INC.Inventors: Suresh RAMASWAMY, Sameh EL-GAWADY, Praveen Kumar VELANATI

Patent number: 11277450Abstract: A method, a device, and a non-transitory storage medium are described in which a native-based support service for an over-the-top application is provided. A network device provides a registration procedure that enables a linking between an identity of the over-the-top application and an identity of a native application for a communication service, and enables a quality of service to be provisioned afforded to the native application for the over-the-top application. The network device provisions originating and terminating communication sessions of the communication service having the native quality of service in relation to the identity of the over-the-top application.Type: GrantFiled: February 4, 2019Date of Patent: March 15, 2022Assignee: Verizon Patent and Licensing Inc.Inventors: Sameh El-Gawady, Richard Phipps, Andrew Wahlon Lam

Patent number: 10027798Abstract: Multiple mobile device numbers (MDNs) may be associated with a single user device. For outgoing communications, the user may choose which of the accounts are to be used. For incoming communications, application layer processes may perform an arbitration function to ensure that that the communication state, associated with each MDN, is correctly updated both at the user device and in the telecommunications network.Type: GrantFiled: April 15, 2016Date of Patent: July 17, 2018Assignee: Verizon Patent and Licensing Inc.Inventors: Sameh El-Gawady, Vered Ben-Anat, Jason A.

The identifier may be formatted as an International Mobile Subscriber Identity (IMSI). The first data may include a three-digit mobile country code (MCC) not associated with a country. The second data may include a telephone number associated with the user device. The third data includes a counter value incremented for endpoint devices associated with the user device.Type: GrantFiled: September 30, 2015Date of Patent: October 24, 2017Assignee: Verizon Patent and Licensing Inc.Inventors: Sameh El-Gawady, Vered Ben-Anat, Jason A.
