  • Publication number: 20230222198
    Abstract: A system and method for confirming the identity of a user seeking access to a protected account or physical place by using the sequenced selection of one or more colors from one or more panels and/or palettes of color that are presented visually to the user seeking access. An identification key is built based on the hidden unique identifiers assigned for each said color selected by the user and the sequence in which the colors were selected by the user. Each color displayed has an assigned unique identifier that is not visible to the user seeking access but is used by a first software programing operating on the uses device to assemble the identification key required to gain account access.

  • Publication number: 20210295327
    Abstract: This invention discloses a system and methods for defeating a so-called man-in-the-middle (MITM) attack. An electronic instruction to collect specified distinctive identifiers from a local/mobile computing device seeking access to a first network website, is generated by said first network website and that electronic instruction is assigned a unique onetime identification token. Said electronic instruction with said unique onetime identification token is transmitted by said first network website to said local/mobile computing device. Said unique onetime identification token is also maintained in a database of unique onetime identification tokens resident on said first network website. In addition, said unique onetime identification token is sent to a secondary network website, where it is also stored in a database of unique onetime identification tokens. Said unique onetime identification token may also contain a time expiration value which defines the validity period for said unique transaction identifier.

  • Publication number: 20210064737
    Abstract: The present invention describes the creation and use of a hybrid password used to gain access to a password protected online website. The hybrid password is a method whereby an online website, acting as a portal for access to password-protected websites, programmatically generates and stores a base password in the online website portal. A base password is then combined with a secondary password or PIN that is generated by the account owner and known only to the account owner. Together the base password and account owner's PIN form the hybrid password, and becomes the complete password required to provide access to said password protected website. The account owner's password or PIN is not stored in the online website portal and is known only to said account owner.

  • Patent number: 10241655
    Abstract: Multiple letters, characters, numbers, strokes and symbols to be assigned to a given physical key on a physical keypad residing on a physical keypad integrated into, or attached to, an electronic device used for electronic financial transactions such as an Automated Teller Machine (ATM) or Point of Sale (POS) terminal, that is used for data entry on the display screen of an electronic device and the methodology of automatically displaying and inserting the characters assigned to that physical key on the display screen of said electronic device. As the user continues to touch/press said physical key on the electronic devices keypad, the first software module will display and bring into focus the characters assigned to the appropriate time duration of the continued touch/press of said physical key in a visual manner on the display screen of said electronic device and will continue rotating thru the assigned characters as long as the physical key touch/press continues.

  • Patent number: 9691067
    Abstract: The present invention consists of methods whereby local/mobile computing devices are registered by collecting a set of hardware and/or software distinctive identifiers to be saved in a validation database residing on a validation database server/Web server, such that the local/mobile computing device can be used as a digital hardware key for right of access and authorization of electronic transactions. This is done by comparing a regenerated set of hardware and/or software distinctive identifiers with those previously registered in the validation database in order to validate the identity of the local/mobile computing device. The invention consists of a first software program executing on a local/mobile computing device that generates the set of hashed and/or encrypted hardware and/or software distinctive identifiers and a second software program resident residing on a validation database server/Web server that manages the validation database.

  • Publication number: 20160313358
    Abstract: Some embodiments provide for a diagnostic test strip for detecting analytes that contains a carrier strip and one or more test pads. Such test pads contain at least one, but preferably two or three transparent membranes or test pad layers. A first transparent membrane has at least one test reagent that indicates the presence of a reference analyte if it has been stored at or below a specified temperature and at least one test reagent that indicates the presence of a reference analyte if it has received a sufficient volume of body fluid. The second transparent membrane contains at least one test reagent that indicates the presence of at least one alcohol related target analyte. Test reagents are arranged on the membranes such that analyte detection produces a signal in any desired shape, such as a circle, oval, square, plus sign, an “X” sign, and/or a checkmark. Furthermore, a single membrane may contain two or more separate test reagents that detect the same or different analytes.
