Abstract
An geo-locations software management utility provides a method and system for passive authentication of an individual's geo-location via a communication network and for user authenticating images and video and social media content. Applications using the same are disclosed.
Claims20
A method for authenticating an individual via a communication network comprising the steps of:
- a) providing an individual with a smartphone having a GPS receiving unit associated with a communications network;
- b) providing the individual with a passive biometric user identification technology coupled to the smartphone;
- c) obtaining via the communications network the geo-location of the smartphone utilizing the GPS receiving unit;
- d) identifying the user with the passive biometric user identification technology by passively obtaining biometric characteristics that are unique to each human via the communications network;
- and
- e) authenticating the user via the communications network for at least one of:
- i) interaction of the individual user with at least one Internet-Of-Things devices;
- ii) interaction of the individual user with financial services applications;
- iii) access to at least one application of the smartphone to the user;
- iv) verification of user presence in defined geographic areas for a user;
- v) verification of no user presence in defined restricted areas for a user;
- vi) verification of user of least one application use of the smartphone by the user in a known geographic location.

A method for authenticating an individual's mobile geo-location via a communication network, comprising the steps of:
- a) providing an individual with a smartphone having a GPS receiving unit associated with a communications network;
- b) providing the individual with a biometric user identification technology coupled to the smartphone;
- c) obtaining via the communications network the geo-location of the smartphone utilizing the GPS receiving unit;
- d) identifying the user with the biometric user identification technology by obtaining biometric characteristics that are unique to each human;
- and
- e) verifying via the communications network the biometric user identification technology is within a preset proximity to the smartphone to authenticate the individual's mobile geo-location anywhere within a geographic scope of the communications network of the smartphone;
- and
- f) authenticating the user via the communications network for at least one of:
- i) interaction of the individual user with at least one Internet-Of-Things devices;
- ii) interaction of the individual user with financial services applications;
- iii) access to at least one application of the smartphone to the user;
- iv) verification of user presence is defined geographic areas for a user;
- v) verification of no user presence in defined restricted areas for a user;
- vi) verification of user of least one application use of the smartphone by the user in a known geographic location.
11 more elements
A system for authenticating an individual's geo-location via a communication network comprising:
- a) a smartphone having a GPS receiving unit associated with a communications network, wherein the system is configured to obtain via the communications network the geo-location of the smartphone utilizing the GPS receiving unit;
- and
- b) a biometric user identification technology worn by the individual configured to obtain biometric characteristics that are unique to each human, wherein the system is configured to identify the user with the biometric user identification technology and to verify the biometric user identification technology is within a preset proximity to the smartphone to authenticate the individual's geo-location.
