  • Patent number: 12210603
    Abstract: The present disclosure generally relates to enrolling a biometric feature for use with a peripheral device. While a computer system is connected to an external device, the computer system receives a first request to enroll a biometric feature. In response to receiving the request and in accordance with a determination that the request satisfies a first set of one or more criteria, the computer system displays a user interface object prompting a user to provide an authorization input to one or more input devices physically connected to the computer system. While displaying the first user interface object, the computer system receives user input. In response to receiving the user input and in accordance with a determination that the user input includes the authentication input, the computer system initiates a process to enroll the biometric feature using a biometric sensor that is integrated with the external device.

  • Publication number: 20240403402
    Abstract: Techniques are disclosed relating to devices that support biometric authentication. In various embodiments, a device includes a biosensor configured to collect biometric data from a user. An authentication system of the device is configured to perform a user authentication based on the collected biometric data. After performance of the user authentication, the authentication system receives sensor data indicating that the user remains collocated with the device and receives a request to confirm an authentication of the user. Based on the user authentication and the received sensor data, the authentication system confirms that the user has been authenticated. In various embodiments, the authentication system is configured to receive additional sensor data indicating that the user is no longer collocated with the device and, in response to a subsequent authentication request, require the user to perform another biometric authentication using the biosensor.

  • Publication number: 20230273985
    Abstract: In some examples, a change in a current viewpoint of a user is detected while a three-dimensional environment is visible. In some examples, in accordance with a determination that at least a threshold amount of the object is visible from the viewpoint of the user, user authorization of the secure operation, using a virtual user interface object, is enabled. In some examples, the user is biometrically authenticated, at a first time, to perform a first type of biometric authentication. In some examples, a request to perform the secure operation is received at a second time. In some examples, in accordance with a determination that the user met respective criteria between the first time and the second time, the secure operation is performed without performing, after receiving the request, the first type of biometric authentication.

  • Publication number: 20220303137
    Abstract: Embodiments described herein provided techniques to enable peripherals configured to provide secure functionality. A secure circuit on a peripheral device can be paired with a secure circuit on a host device outside of a factory environment without compromising security by verifying silicon keys that are embedded within the secure circuit during manufacturing.
