  • Patent number: 11960585
    Abstract: A nonce is sent to a user communication device. Obfuscated biometric data is received from the user communication device. The obfuscated biometric data is generated by an obfuscation process that uses the nonce and first biometric data. The first biometric data is generated from a biometric of a user at the user communication device. For example, the first biometric data may be biometric data from a fingerprint scan. The obfuscation process is reversed by using the first nonce to produce the first biometric data. The first biometric data is compared to known biometric data of the user. In response to the first biometric data being within a threshold of the known biometric data, the user is authenticated.

    Abstract: A method is provided for collecting diagnostic information in a device having a rich execution environment (REE) and a secure element (SE). The method includes detecting initialization of the device. If it is determined that the initialization of the device was a result of a potential security related event, a communication component of the REE responsible for communicating with the secure element is activated if not already activated. The secure element sends a request to the communication component for diagnostic information related to the security event. The diagnostic information is received in the SE from the communication component and stored in an attack log for storing security events. An attack log is generated in the secure element including the potential security event and the related diagnostic information. The attack log and the related diagnostic information is communicated to a secure server via a secure channel.

  • Patent number: 11847099
    Abstract: The subject technology may be implemented by a device that includes at least one processor configured to encrypt a data object based at least in part on an encryption key. The at least one processor may be further configured to sign the encrypted data object with a private key and transmit the signed encrypted data object to a server for retrieval by another device. The at least one processor may be further configured to generate a sharing object corresponding to the data object, wherein the sharing object includes an encryption key and a public key that corresponds to the private key. The at least one processor may be further configured to encrypt the sharing object using a key of the other device and transmit, over a secure channel, the encrypted sharing object to the other device for subsequent retrieval and verification of the signed data object from the server.

  • Patent number: 11841973
    Abstract: A method disclosed herein may include receiving, at a first computing system, encrypted identifiers and encrypted values, performing, by the first computing system, a concealing operation on the encrypted identifiers to produce concealed encrypted identifiers, wherein the concealing operation conceals the encrypted identifiers from the first computing system and a second computing system but enables matching between the concealed encrypted identifiers, decrypting, by the second computing system, the concealed encrypted identifiers to produce concealed identifiers, and performing, by the second computing system, an aggregation operation using the concealed identifiers and the encrypted values to produce an encrypted aggregate value without accessing personally identifiable information associated with the encrypted values.

  • Patent number: 11799638
    Abstract: There are provided systems and methods for shared cryptogram generation during multi-party digital token processing. A service provider, such as an electronic transaction processor for digital transactions, may require tokenized data in order to protect sensitive or secure data, such as payment card data during electronic transaction processing. In this regard, the service provider may tokenize the data, which may require a cryptogram for validation of a corresponding digital token. The cryptogram may be generated based on input from multiple participants to the transaction, where a length of the cryptogram may be determined based on a risk score for the transaction. Each transaction participant may be assigned one or more slots or values in the cryptogram to provide based on the risk score and other rules for cryptogram generation. Each participant may provide corresponding portions, where the service provider may generate and backwards update the participants of the cryptogram.
