Patent number: 11593808Abstract: Systems and methods are provided for authenticating mobile payments from a customer account to a merchant. The systems and methods may include a financial service provider receiving a request to authorize an electronic transaction at a point-of-sale. A financial service provider server computer may verify that the customer is present at the point-of-sale using received location data. An image having distorted text such as a captcha may be transmitted to a device at the point-of-sale, and the customer may read the captcha aloud. A voice sample of the customer may be sent to the financial service provider for comparison to stored voice recordings, to verify that the customer's voice sample is authentic if the voice matches a previously generated voice recording for the account. If the voice sample is authentic, the financial service provider may authorize the mobile payment.Type: GrantFiled: October 29, 2021Date of Patent: February 28, 2023Assignee: Capital One Services, LLCInventors: Lawrence Douglas, Paul Y. Moreton

Patent number: 11580464Abstract: A method for managing customers for a store includes generating first account identification information from stored account information of a customer. The method also includes transmitting a list of candidate payees within a predefined distance of a current geolocation of a personal communication device of the customer and identifying the store as a party to a transaction with the customer based on feedback. The method still further includes receiving, from the store, a transaction message indicating the customer is a counterparty to the transaction, the transaction message comprising second account identification information received at the communication device of the store from the customer. The method also includes determining the first account identification information matches the second account identification information.Type: GrantFiled: December 24, 2020Date of Patent: February 14, 2023Inventors: Yuh-shen Song, Catherine Lew, Alexander Song, Victoria Song

Patent number: 11551496Abstract: An access control system includes a verification computing system that stores access rights information and credential proxies received from user devices, receives from a local access control subsystem an input credential and input credential proxy derived therefrom and received from a present user, identifies the access rights information associated with the user according to the input credential proxy and the stored credential proxy, requests and receives a stored credential from the user device of the present user, and compares the stored credential to the input credential to authorize the present user. The access rights information is for each of the users to access spaces with the local access control subsystems. The stored credential proxies are derived from stored credential received by the user devices using an algorithm. The input credential proxies are derived from the input credentials using the algorithm.Type: GrantFiled: February 18, 2022Date of Patent: January 10, 2023Assignee: PassiveBolt, Inc.Inventors: Kabir Maiga, Phillip Michael Johnson, Simon Forster

Patent number: 11537694Abstract: Described are techniques for differentiating humans from bots. The techniques including a computer-implemented method comprising presenting a motion-based challenge-response instruction to a user via a user interface of a first device of a plurality of devices associated with the user and communicatively coupled to one another by a network, where the motion-based challenge-response instruction describes at least one motion that is performable by the user and detectable by at least one of the plurality of devices, and where the motion-based challenge-response instruction is configured to differentiate humans from bots. The method further comprises determining that device data from one or more of the plurality of devices matches the at least one motion. The method further comprises authenticating the first device in response to determining that the device data matches the at least one motion, where authenticating the first device indicates that the user is a human.Type: GrantFiled: July 23, 2020Date of Patent: December 27, 2022Assignee: International Business Machines CorporationInventors: Jeremy Adam Greenberger, Craig M. Trim, Mauro Marzorati, Jeremy R. Fox

Patent number: 11509467Abstract: Embodiments disclosed herein are related to generating and using a private key recovery seed based on random words extracted from a generated story to recover the private key. An input story is received from a user. The story includes random words and filler words that were previously generated. The number of random words generated is based on an entropy level. The random words included in the story are extracted. This means that the user does not need to enter any random words that are not included in the story to recover the private key. The random words are input into a first key recovery mechanism to thereby generate a private key recovery seed. The private key recovery seed is then input into a second private key recovery mechanism, the second private key recovery mechanism generating a recovered private key upon performing a recovery operation on the private key recovery seed.Type: GrantFiled: February 25, 2020Date of Patent: November 22, 2022Assignee: Microsoft Technology Licensing, LLCInventors: Brandon Murdoch, Ankur Patel, Logan Girvin

Patent number: 11503021Abstract: A system performs mobile biometric identification system enrollment using a known biometric. The system receives a digital representation of a first biometric for a person. Prior to using the digital representation of the first biometric to identify the person, the system compares a received digital representation of a second biometric for the person to known biometric data for the person. When the digital representation of the first biometric has been thus verified, the system is operative to identify the person using the digital representation of the first biometric.Type: GrantFiled: January 20, 2021Date of Patent: November 15, 2022Assignee: ALCLEAR, LLCInventor: Stewart Whitman
