Patent number: 11784943Abstract: Some embodiments provide a method for an electronic device. The method stores user data associated with a web-based third party service based on user interaction with a web domain for the third party service through a web browser. The method receives a request from a service-specific application to utilize the user data stored for the third party service. The method provides the user data to the application only when the application is verified by the web domain for receiving user data associated with the third party service.Type: GrantFiled: May 30, 2022Date of Patent: October 10, 2023Assignee: Apple Inc.Inventors: Andrew R. Whalley, Bob Bradley, Kenneth C. McLeod

Patent number: 11785047Abstract: One or more medical devices are configured to connect to a predetermined temporary provisioning network of a healthcare organization, the temporary provisioning network being different than a healthcare network of the healthcare organization. After the devices are received by the healthcare organization, and powered up for the first time, device identifiers corresponding to the medical devices are received at a server remote from the healthcare organization, from the temporary provisioning network, together with an indication that the medical devices are requesting access to a management server within a healthcare network of the healthcare organization.Type: GrantFiled: January 9, 2023Date of Patent: October 10, 2023Assignee: CareFusion 303, Inc.Inventors: Aron Weiler, Jeff Gaetano, Brian Sullivan

Patent number: 11769200Abstract: Systems and methods are provided for assessing an account takeover risk for one or more accounts of an individual. The account security procedures for each of a number of services with which the user has an account may be analyzed. Publicly accessible information regarding the user may also be collected and analyzed. The collected information and security procedures may be compared in order to determine one or more vulnerabilities to hostile account takeover of one or more of the analyzed accounts. An alert may be generated regarding a determined takeover risk, which may include suggested actions for remedying the risk.Type: GrantFiled: July 20, 2021Date of Patent: September 26, 2023Assignee: ConsumerInfo.com, Inc.Inventors: Mark Joseph Kapczynski, Michael John Dean, Herbert Harris Hunt, III

Patent number: 11770412Abstract: One example method includes logging into websites through devices including insecure devices. A logon device may store credentials. The logon device is configured to connect with an insecure device and then communicate with a website for authentication purposes without exposing a user's credentials to the insecure device. After the user is authenticated, the session is transferred to the insecure device.Type: GrantFiled: January 28, 2021Date of Patent: September 26, 2023Assignee: EMC IP HOLDING COMPANY LLCInventors: Seth Jacob Rothschild, Benjamin Santaus, Orlando Xavier Nieves, Radia J.

Patent number: 11750386Abstract: Embodiments described herein disclose methods and systems for authorizing transactions received from client applications. The transaction request can include a first access token. After validating the first access token, the system can determine whether additional authentication is needed to authorize the transaction. If additional authentication is needed, the system can determine the authentication requirements. Once the additional authentication is received and verified, the system can generate a second access token and authorize the transaction by releasing the first access token.Type: GrantFiled: April 21, 2021Date of Patent: September 5, 2023Assignee: United Services Automobile Association (USAA)Inventors: Hoang Trung Vo, Hieu Nguyen

Patent number: 11722893Abstract: A same wireless access profile is installed on each of multiple mobile communication devices. The wireless access profile includes outer identity information and anonymous inner identity information for each service. The anonymous inner identity information includes a credential used by each of the multiple mobile communication devices to use the service. To use the service such as access a remote network, a respective mobile communication device communicates an anonymous username and password assigned to the service to a policy server during first level authentication. The policy server stores a network address of the authenticated mobile communication device. During second level authentication, the policy server receives an identity of the mobile communication device from a network gateway. The policy server provides access control information (assigned to the service) to the network gateway.Type: GrantFiled: April 27, 2021Date of Patent: August 8, 2023Assignee: Charter Communications Operating LLCInventors: Shane B. Newberg, Christopher J. Teague, Peter A. Ericksen, Donald W. Sherker

Patent number: 11709925Abstract: Embodiments herein describe using visual passwords to control access to secure information. When a user attempts to access the secure information, she can provide her username to an authentication agent which identifies the visual password corresponding to the received username and selects a first set of images that contains the visual password and a second set of images that does not. The first and second sets of images are then transmitted to a user device. The user device can display the first and second sets of images to the user who selects which images have the visual password. An indication of which images the user selected is then transmitted to the authentication engine which determines whether the user selected all the images in the first set and none of the images in the second set. If so, the user is granted access to the secure information.Type: GrantFiled: September 27, 2018Date of Patent: July 25, 2023Assignee: Amazon Technologies, Inc.Inventors: Tristan Bellman-Greenwood, Brian Connolly, Zachary Philip Wilson
