A system providing self-service access to locked merchandise comprising: (a) providing a fixture that restricts access to the locked merchandise, wherein the fixture can automatically lock or unlock, allowing or restricting access to the locked merchandise; (b) providing a means of uniquely identifying an individual attempting to access the merchandise; (c) measuring a set of behaviors of the individual during any time the fixture is an open mode; (d) assessing whether the set of behaviors of the individual are suspicious or not relative to a set of suspicious event thresholds; (e) storing the individual and their set of behaviors as accessible records in at least one database; and (f) providing an algorithm which determines future access privileges of the individual to the enclosure based on a set of variables.

Disclosed herein is a shipping container that includes numerous multi-factor authentication (MFA) tie ins to provide added security to the container. In some embodiments, the shipping container is associated with a mobile user profiles within a mobile application. A retailer makes a sale, then, using a mobile application, associates the container with the destination address and the MFA details associated with the buyer's mobile application account. Once the container is loaded up, the container will not open again except for the buyer using the buyer's MFA authentication credentials.

A wireless signal blocking lockbox comprises a housing and a locking mechanism is presented. The housing comprises an access panel, a plurality of layers, and a storage body. The plurality of layers comprises an outer layer, a wireless signal blocking layer, and an inner layer. The access panel and the storage body are selectively connected to each other through the locking mechanism. The plurality of layers is distributed about the housing. The wireless signal blocking layer is positioned between the outer layer and the inner layer.

A wireless network, mobile systems and methods for controlling access to lockers, strollers, wheel chairs and electronic convenience vehicles and other networked devices provided with machine-readable codes that are scanned by mobile phones and computing devices.

Examples associated with service kiosk access are described. One example includes a non-transitory computer-readable medium storing processor executable instructions that, when executed, control a processor to detect a specified condition resolvable by in-person service at a service kiosk that includes a set of compartments. Each compartment is adapted to store an electronic device in a manner that provides a data connection to the electronic device while restricting communications involving the electronic device to the data connection. The instructions further control the processor to generate a request for technician support responsive to detecting the specified condition. The instructions further control the processor to authenticate that a technician is physically present at the service kiosk. The instructions further control the processor to grant physical access to compartments associated with the specified condition.

The present disclosure generally relates to providing electronic locking systems. Using novel designs and network technology, the present systems, methods, and apparatuses can provide a secure alternative to a cam lock or a lock box for storing items that may be left unattended, without the use of a physical key. For example, in certain embodiments, the present systems, methods, and apparatuses can facilitate the locking and unlocking of a cam lock or a lock box by using a digital construct, an encryption system, and various native and/or third-party software components.

An information handling system (IHS), method and computer program product secure data such as personally identifiable information (PII) with separated dual encryption of each data payload and obscured labeling, providing an electronic deposit box (EpositBox) to thwart a data breach, which are then stored in a blockchain with retrieval facilitated by a sidecar indexing database. The IHS receives a tenant data structure tenant record(s) having tabular label(s) associated with a data payload. The IHS assigns a block ID, appends a signature, and a tenant identifier to the tenant record. The IHS stores the tenant record in the blockchain, and the block ID and signature are stored in the sidecar.

A multi-factor safe locking system for use in firearm storage, wherein the factors comprise a user's provided key, a user's biometric data, and a user's provided code. In some embodiments, the multi-factor safe locking system requires the near-simultaneous entry of two users, or dual consent of the two users to enter at least two unique keys, at least one form of biometric data from each user, and at least two unique codes, wherein each user supplies their own unique code to access the safe's contents. In further embodiments, a safe locking system includes a further factor of a result from a blood alcohol test.

A system and a method for controlling a plurality of electronic locks are provided. In an embodiment, a request for opening a door is received and verified. If the request is approved, signals are sent to open the electronic lock that locks the door. If the request is rejected, a message is sent to notify the user of the invalid request.

A secure, computerized locker bank that is adapted to facilitate the payment for, and physical exchange of an item between entities who have brokered the sale of the item via a marketplace, such as an on-line marketplace (e.g., an on-line auction site, an on-line classified advertisement site, or an online retail marketplace), or a traditional marketplace (e.g., traditional paper classified advertisements). In particular embodiments, each locker in the computerized locker bank comprises one or more imaging devices for allowing a potential purchaser to view an item (e.g., stored within a locker) before purchasing the item and retrieving it from the locker.
