Patent number: 12238322Abstract: Methods, systems, and apparatus, including computer programs encoded on a computer storage medium, for jointly training an encoder that generates a watermark and a decoder that decodes a data item encoded within the watermark. The training comprises obtaining a plurality of training images and data items. For each training image, a first watermark is generated using an encoder and a subsequent second watermark is generated by tiling two or more first watermarks. The training image is watermarked using the second watermark to generate a first error value and distortions are added to the watermarked image. A distortion detector predicts the distortions based on which the distorted image is modified. The modified image is decoded by the decoder to generate a predicted data item and a second error value. The training parameters of the encoder and decoder are adjusted based on the first and the second error value.Type: GrantFiled: January 11, 2022Date of Patent: February 25, 2025Assignee: Google LLCInventors: Xiyang Luo, Feng Yang, Elnaz Barshan Tashnizi, Dake He, Ryan Matthew Haggarty, Michael Gene Goebel

Patent number: 12238168Abstract: The present invention is a data protocol providing notarization of a data between two or more nodes on a content-addressable peer-to-peer storage network. A node generates a new data block, which is witnessed by peer nodes to increase the integrity of the data. Each peer node responds to the node's signature request with an encoded digital signature of the data using a private key. The node appends the signature from each witness node to the data block and then generates a cryptographic hash of the entire data block, which is used as the identity of the block.Type: GrantFiled: October 7, 2021Date of Patent: February 25, 2025Assignee: EDJX, Inc.Inventor: James A.

Patent number: 12225138Abstract: This disclosure relates to field of cryptography and digital signatures. The constant theft of cryptocurrencies is due to compromise of the secret signing key inherently stored in a single location. Also, one of challenges in the existing ECDSA signature is single point failure, wherein the signing key (private key) is prone to theft. The disclosed technique overcomes the challenging in the existing techniques by party distributed signature that ensures the safety of the private key. The disclosed techniques slits the key in two parts and saves at two different locations/machines. Further based on a ECDSA based technique, the digital signature is obtained securely using several steps that includes generation of first two parts of digital signature at one party, generation of the second two parts of digital signature at second party, finally decrypting a complete digital signature at the first party.Type: GrantFiled: November 4, 2022Date of Patent: February 11, 2025Assignee: Tata Consultancy Services LimitedInventors: Habeeb Basha Syed, Arinjita Paul, Meena Singh Dilip Thakur, Rajan Mindigal Alasingara Bhattachar

Patent number: 12225003Abstract: Cross-channel user authentication is provided, to increase resilience of a computerized system to cyber-attacks and to fraudulent transactions. In a demonstrative scenario, a user utilizes his web browser on his laptop computer to log-in to a web server; which in turn extracts the IP address of the laptop computer. The web server triggers an application server to send a Push Notification to a Mobile App that had been installed on a smartphone of that user who just logged in; and that Push Notification causes that smartphone to respond to the application server with the IP address of the smartphone. If the IP address of the computer is not identical to the IP address of the smartphone, then the servers determine that the log-in attempt on the computer was possibly fraudulent, and fraud mitigation operations are initiated. Optionally, geo-location data, device orientation data, device motion data, or other parameters are used as part of the cross-channel authentication process.Type: GrantFiled: December 11, 2022Date of Patent: February 11, 2025Assignee: BIOCATCH LTD.Inventors: Itai Novick, Gad Mazor, Iris Eidelsztein

Patent number: 12174944Abstract: The disclosure relates to systems and methods for managing state using relatively small assistance from protected hardware. Obfuscated code segments may communicate with supporting protected hardware, store encrypted state values in main memory, and/or communicate via secure channels to secure platform hardware components. In various embodiments, consistent state may be achieved, at least in part, by computing secure tag information and storing the secure tag information in a secure and/or otherwise protected device register. Consistent with embodiments disclosed herein, the tag information may be used to derive keys used to encrypt and/or decrypt stored state information. Tag information may further be used in connection with verification operations prior to using the information to derive associated keys.Type: GrantFiled: August 30, 2023Date of Patent: December 24, 2024Assignee: Intertrust Technologies CorporationInventor: Stephen G.

Patent number: 12169812Abstract: Aspects of the disclosure relate to digital check processing. A computing platform may receive, from a first recipient, a request to transfer a first portion of funds, corresponding to the first digital check image, to a second recipient account and a second portion of the funds, corresponding to the first digital check image, to a third recipient account. The computing platform may generate second and third digital check images representative of the first and second portions of the funds respectively. Based on successful validation of the second digital check image and the third digital check image, the computing platform may embed, into the second and third digital check images, a digital chip that indicates the successful validation. The computing platform may send, to the second recipient account and the third recipient account, the second and third digital check images respectively.Type: GrantFiled: September 19, 2023Date of Patent: December 17, 2024Assignee: Bank of America CorporationInventors: Benjamin D.

Patent number: 12169830Abstract: Some examples of the present disclosure relate to generating artificially intelligent entities represented on a blockchain using a non-fungible token (NFT). In one such example, a system can generate an NFT on a blockchain. The NFT can represent an artificially intelligent entity. The system can also generate a personality dataset on the blockchain, the personality dataset describing personality characteristics of the artificially intelligent entity. The system can then correlate the NFT to the personality dataset, thereby assigning the personality characteristics to the artificially intelligent entity. Once generated, the artificially intelligent entity may reside in a virtual ecosystem in which it can perform tasks and learn over time.Type: GrantFiled: November 7, 2022Date of Patent: December 17, 2024Inventor: Arif Khan

Patent number: RE50264Abstract: A system and method are provided for conditional delivery of electronic content such as images or video stream content over a communication network. In some embodiments, a condition for receiving such content is determined, for example a verification of a biometric fact as a face recognition or a finger print. The content will then be delivered conditioned on the satisfaction of the condition. In some embodiments, facial detection technology is used continually while sent content is being displayed to ensure that content is being viewed solely by the intended recipient. In some embodiments, the recipient's reaction to sent content is recorded on video and sent to the sender as a condition of viewing the sent content. In some embodiments, two or more users interact with one another in real time in a secure video conference.Type: GrantFiled: March 7, 2022Date of Patent: January 7, 2025Inventor: George Pantazelos
