Abstract
System and methods for authenticating a user requesting access to a secure system. An example system includes an access point, an authentication data gathering point, a comparison point, and an output of whether a user should be granted or denied access. Authentication data includes behavioral and biometric data collected from a user.
Claims23
A process for granting or denying a user access to a system using authentication data, the process comprising the steps of:
- a. receiving from a device in the possession of the user a unique identifier for the system, wherein the unique identifier for the system is displayed at or near an access point and the unique identifier for the system changes from time to time;
- b. receiving from the device in the possession of the user a unique identifier associated with the user;
- c. verifying that the user is authorized to access the system;
- d. transmitting a request for authentication data to the device in the possession of the user;
- e. receiving from the device in the possession of the user a sample of authentication data of the kind requested in the transmitted request;
- f. comparing one or more attributes of the received sample with one or more attributes of a custom authentication print for a user, wherein the custom authentication print is stored and used as a reference to authenticate the user;
- and
- g. granting or denying the user access to the system based upon a correlation between the one or more attributes of the received sample and the one or more expected predicted attributes of the custom authentication print.
A process for preventing fraudulent access to a secure system, the process comprising the steps of:
- a. continuously monitoring one or more behaviors of a user while the user is utilizing a mobile application or a device;
- b. periodically sampling the one or more behaviors of the user;
- c. comparing one or more attributes of the samples of the one or more behaviors of the user to one or more attributes of a stored custom authentication print for the user;
- d. determining a percentage match between the one or more attributes of the samples of the one or more behaviors of the user and the one or more attributes of a stored custom authentication print for the user;
- and
- e. implementing a feedback response based on whether the percentage match corresponds to a pre-selected confidence level.
A process for averting crises while a user is accessing a secure system, the process comprising the steps of:
- a. continuously monitoring one or more behaviors of a user while the user is utilizing a mobile application or a device;
- b. periodically sampling the one or more behaviors of the user;
- c. comparing one or more attributes of the samples of the one or more behaviors of the user to one or more attributes of a stored custom authentication print for the user;
- d. predicting if the comparison between the one or more attributes of the samples of the one or more behaviors of the user and the one or more attributes of a stored custom authentication print for the user indicate an ongoing crisis;
- and
- e. implementing a feedback response based on whether an ongoing crisis is predicted.
