Abstract: Techniques of authenticating a first device of a user to a second device are disclosed. The method enables the second device to perform authentication using a biometric template stored on the first device and a biometric measurement. Homomorphic encryption may be used by the first device to encrypt the biometric template and the second device to determine an encrypted similarity metric between the biometric template and the biometric measurement.

The second device sends the encrypted code and the encrypted similarity metric to be decrypted by the first device. The second device can receive a response from the first device, indicating whether a decrypted similarity metric exceeds a threshold; and whether the decrypted code matches a test code. The second device can then authenticate the user based on the response.

Abstract: Systems, methods, and devices described herein can configure a cryptocurrency wallet or other blockchain-based account to be self-aware and alert the owner of the wallet to one or more potentially fraudulent situations occurring with at least one account they own. The wallet may be a hardware-based cryptocurrency wallet or may be a blockchain-based account operating by an external financial institution that allows for the management of cryptocurrency assets. The self-aware wallet can be configured to track all relevant previously known and/or approved transactions associated with a user's private cryptocurrency key. A subsequent scan on one or more blockchains is performed to detect new transactions associated with the user's private key. If a newly detected blockchain transaction is not in the list of previously known or approved user transactions, a potential compromise may be occurring. Once detected, the wallet can generate a notification to the user alerting them to the issue.
