Abstract:

A device implementing a user configurable direct transfer system may include at least one processor configured to receive, from an electronic device associated with a user account, a request to establish a type of transfer between a first account associated with an entity and a second account associated with the user account, the request including an entity identifier and a transfer type identifier. The at least one processor may be further configured to generate a transfer alias that is stored in association with the entity identifier, a second account identifier, and the transfer type identifier, and provide the transfer alias to the electronic device and a server associated with the entity to facilitate the type of transfer between the first account associated with the entity and the second account associated with the user account.

International Classification:

H04L 29/06
H04L 9/32

Abstract:

A device implementing the subject system may include a processor configured to send, to a service provider, a request for a service provided by the service provider. The processor may be further configured to receive, in response to sending the request for the service, a request for a verified claim, the verified claim comprising first information to identify a user of a device and being a digital certificate signed by a server, the verified claim being associated with the device. The processor may be further configured to send, in response to receiving the request for the verified claim, the verified claim to the service provider, and receive a request for second information to identify the user, the second information being different than the first information, the request for the second information being based on a determination that the first information is not sufficient to identify the user.

International Classification:

H04L 29/06
H04L 9/00

Abstract:

A device implementing a system for using a verified claim of identity includes at least one processor configured to receive a first request to revoke a verified claim, the verified claim comprising information to identify a user of a device, wherein the verified claim includes a hardware reference key of the device, and wherein the hardware reference key is a public key of a public-private key pair, a corresponding private key of which is securely stored on the device. The at least one processor may be further configured to in response to receiving the request, send, to the device, a second request to revoke the verified claim on the device, and add the verified claim to a revocation list.

Abstract:

A device implementing a system for using a verified claim of identity includes at least one processor configured to send, to a service provider, a request for a service provided by the service provider. The at least one processor may be further configured to receive, from the service provider and in response to the sending, a request for a verified claim, the verified claim comprising plural data fields to identify a user of a device and being a digital certificate signed by a server, the verified claim being associated with to the device. The at least one processor may be further configured to, in response to the receiving, determine a confidence assessment for the verified claim based on a comparison between the plural data fields in the verified claim and corresponding data locally-stored on a device, and send the confidence assessment and the verified claim to the service provider.

H04L 9/30

Abstract:

A device implementing a system for using a verified claim of identity includes at least one processor configured to receive a verified claim including information to identify a user of a device, the verified claim being signed by a server based on verification of the information by an identity verification provider separate from the server, the verified claim being specific to the device. The at least one processor is further configured to send, to a service provider, a request for a service provided by the service provider, and receive, from the service provider and in response to the sending, a request for the verified claim. The at least one processor is further configured to send, in response to the receiving, the verified claim to the service provider.

International Classification:

H04L 29/06
H04L 9/32

Abstract:

A device implementing a system for using a verified claim of identity may include at least one processor configured to receive a response vector corresponding to a verified claim of a user of a device, the verified claim comprising plural data fields to identify the user and being a digital certificate signed by a server, the verified claim being associated with the device, the response vector comprising, for each field of the plural data fields, a confidence score indicating a likelihood that the field is accurate. The at least one processor may be further configured to receive, from the device, a request for a service, determine, in response to receiving the request, that service is to be provided to the device based on the response vector and the verified claim, and provide the service to the device based on the determining.

Abstract:

Representative embodiments described herein set forth techniques for optimizing large-scale deliveries of electronic Subscriber Identity Modules (eSIMs) to mobile devices. Specifically, instead of generating and assigning eSIMs when mobile devices are being activated—which can require significant processing overhead—eSIMs are pre-generated with a basic set of information, and are later-assigned to the mobile devices when they are activated. This can provide considerable benefits over conventional approaches that involve generating and assigning eSIMs during mobile device activation, especially when new mobile devices (e.g., smartphones, tablets, etc.) are being launched and a large number of eSIM assignment requests are to be fulfilled in an efficient manner.
