  • Methods and Apparatus for Enabling Secure Network-Based Transactions
    Publication number: 20170249631
    Abstract: A card reader has an input interface for accepting output from an output interface of transaction card, and a tip-ring pin as an integral part of the card reader, adapted to plug into a microphone port of a cellular telephone. The input interface accepts data from the transaction card, and provides that data to the tip-ring pin as an analog, variable-voltage signal.

  • Methods and apparatus for enabling secure network-based transactions
    Patent number: 9003508
    Abstract: A security process involves log-in and data exchange between a server and a user operating a computerized appliance. The process requires a user-specific token, independent verification of the server execution within a programmed time window. A hash created at the client side is reproduced at the server side from separate data and compared to the client hash. Too much time or incorrect hash denies access.
