Publication number: 20250225271Abstract: The technology disclosed allows for leveraging decentralized credentials to achieve bidirectional authentication between two actors leveraging a messaging platform/system, such as email or another text-based system, verifiable credentials (VCs), and secure web endpoints. It empowers one party (“Sender”) to send a message enclosed with a Verifiable Presentation which allows another party (“Recipient”) to authenticate the message's provenance and the identity of the sender. Moreover, the message contains a link to a secure web endpoint, where the recipient can submit a response signed by their own Verifiable Presentation, allowing the Sender to authenticate the identity of the Recipient. In this way, both participants are able to authenticate each other's identities with an additional factor of authentication, with neither participant being required to share a single service.Type: ApplicationFiled: September 27, 2024Publication date: July 10, 2025Applicant: LedgerDomain Inc.Inventors: Victor Bovee Dods, Leonid Alekseyev, Alex Read Colgan, Benjamin James Taylor, William Jack, Benjamin Gregory Nichols

Patent number: 12300371Abstract: Disclosed is a method for authenticating requestors and granting access to a permissioned blockchain network shared among enterprise entities. A decentralized registry of credentialled users, in which credentialled users guard their own access information by keeping a private key of a public-private keypair enables systems to avoid keeping information of a large number of users in large, vulnerable containers. A further method removes authenticated users seeking to be forgotten from the registry of users and deletes any personally identifiable information of the withdrawing users.Type: GrantFiled: September 22, 2023Date of Patent: May 13, 2025Assignee: LEDGERDOMAIN INC.Inventors: Victor Bovee Dods, Leonid Alekseyev, William Jack, Benjamin James Taylor

Publication number: 20070124308Abstract: Communicating with a distributed service in the network computing environment. A method for communicating with a distributed service includes referencing a configuration registry to determine resources and permissions in a potential distributed service entry. A potential distributed service entry identifies a distributed service corresponding to the potential distributed service entry that is authorized to exist by virtue of an entry in the configuration registry for the potential distributed service entry specifying that the distributed service may exist, whether or not the distributed service corresponding to the potential distributed service entry exists. The method further includes using the resource information, attempting to contact the distributed service corresponding to the potential distributed service entry. Permissions of the distributed service corresponding to the potential distributed service entry are verified to match permissions of the potential distributed service entry.Type: ApplicationFiled: November 30, 2005Publication date: May 31, 2007Applicant: Microsoft CorporationInventors: Gregory Johnson, Mashuri Libman, William Lees, William Jack

Publication number: 20060282881Abstract: A domain controller hierarchy includes one or more hub domain controllers in communication with one or more local domain controllers, such as local domain controllers at a branch office. The hub domain controller(s) is writable, while the local domain controller(s) is typically read-only. Non-secure and secure information is partitioned to specific local domain controllers at the one or more hub domain controllers. The non-secure and secure information is then passed from the hub domain controller only to the local domain controller associated with the given partition at the hub domain controller on request. For example, a user requests a logon at a client computer system at a local branch office, and the logon is passed from the local domain controller to the hub domain controller. If authenticated, the user logon account is passed to the local domain controller, where it can be cached to authenticate subsequent requests.Type: ApplicationFiled: June 10, 2005Publication date: December 14, 2006Applicant: Microsoft CorporationInventors: Gregory Johnson, Nathan Muggli, William Lees, William Jack

Publication number: 20060280139Abstract: A domain controller hierarchy in accordance with implementations of the present invention involves one or more local domain controllers, such as one or more read-only local domain controllers in communication with one or more writable hub domain controllers. The local domain controllers includes a resource manager, such as a Security Account Manager (“SAM”), that manages resources and/or other accounts information received from the writable hub domain controller. When a local user attempts to change the resource at the local domain controller, however, the resource manager chains the request, along with any appropriate identifiers for the request, to the writable hub domain controller, where the request is processed. If appropriate, the hub domain controller sends a response that the resource has been updated as requested and also sends a copy of the updated resource to be cached at the local domain controller.Type: ApplicationFiled: June 10, 2005Publication date: December 14, 2006Applicant: Microsoft CorporationInventors: Colin Brace, William Jack, Nathan Muggli

Publication number: 20050042619Abstract: The present invention relates to the use of site-specific nucleic acid nicking enzymes to create single-stranded regions in duplex nucleic acids. Such single-stranded regions can take the form of gaps interior to the duplex, or terminal single-stranded regions. Single-stranded termini can be crafted to allow linkage of various elements via base-pairing with elements containing a complementary single-stranded region. This joining is useful, for example, in an ordered, oriented assembly of DNA modules to create cloning or expression vectors. This joining is also useful in attaching detection probes and purifying DNA molecules containing the single-stranded region. Gaps are useful in similar applications, including attaching detection or purification probes.Type: ApplicationFiled: September 8, 2003Publication date: February 24, 2005Inventors: William Jack, Ira Schildkraut, Julie Menin
