A method to manage Internet of Things (IoT) devices is described. In one embodiment, the method includes detecting a presence of a first IoT device in a network associated with the computing device, managing access to the first IoT device based at least in part on authentication information associated with the first IoT device, identifying one or more updates associated with the first IoT device, and applying at least one update to the first IoT device based at least in part on identifying the one or more updates. In one embodiment, the method further includes analyzing a packet stream to determine one or more identifiers associated with the first IoT device, and identifying the first IoT device based at least in part on the one or more determined identifiers.

The present invention relates to a system and method for matching users, especially fitness enthusiasts, for the purposes of friendship, a relationship, a pen pal, a gym partner, etc. The system is configured to register users on the system and authenticate uploaded photographs by using facial recognition algorithms and motion detection techniques to prevent fake profiles and bots. The system and method displays the profiles relevant to the user on a user interface of the computer-implemented application and enables the user to swipe up to dislike the displayed profiles and swipe down to like the profiles. The user is allowed to choose from a plurality of subscription levels that allow the user to chat, as well as discover and strengthen his or her profile. The system provides a filtering system to filter users via various criteria.

Aspects of the present disclosure involve a system comprising a computer-readable storage medium storing a program and method for password protecting selected message content. The program and method provide for receiving selection of a content item shared between a first user and a second user, in association with a messaging application; receiving input indicating that access to the content item requires user authentication by the first user or the second user; and providing for access to the content item based on the user selection and the input.

An authentication management method includes: generating an authentication state based on an authentication result by an authentication terminal, an authentication rule or rules and identity information, and notifying a vehicle application of the generated authentication state. An authentication rule stored in a storage defines a plurality of authentication levels according to security levels, and authentication by an authentication element in at least one of the authentication levels includes possession authentication by a hardware encryption module with physical security.

A method comprises discovering, in a controller device, one or more target devices that are in a pairing mode, generating, in the controller device, a first signal comprising a pattern, transmitting, from the controller device to a first remote device, the first signal comprising the pattern, receiving, in the controller device, a second signal from a second remote device, the second signal comprising a authentication code, and authenticating the one or more target devices when the first authentication signal and the second authentication signal match.

Methods, systems, and computer program products for content management systems. Multiple components are operatively interconnected to carry out operations for establishing a user device trust level. A content management system facilitates interactions between a plurality of user devices and a plurality of shared content objects. The plurality of user devices are network connected to the content management system. One of the user devices issues a request to access a particular one of the content objects. Responsive to the request, a two-step device check is performed before granting access to the particular one of the content objects. A first step of the two-step device check process is based on login information, and a second step of the two-step device check process is based at least in part on analysis of the content of the particular one of the content objects. The actual bits of the content object itself are inspected.

Content object operations over content objects of a content management system are prioritized to be performed immediately, or at a later time. The immediate scheduling of an operation is determined by policies, rules, and/or predictive model outcomes. The determination for later time scheduling is based on analysis of a history of events on content objects. If the content object operation is deemed to be at least potentially delayable to a later time, then a scheduling model is consulted to determine an urgency of performing the content object operation on the content object. The urgency value resulting from consulting the scheduling model is combined with then-current resource availability to determine a timeframe for performance of the content object operation on the content object relative to other entries in a continuously updated list of to-be-performed operations. The performance of the content object operation on the content object is initiated in due course.

Receive a transaction generated by a user of a non-internet application; identify transaction life cycle steps of previous similar transactions; and generate a transaction risk score for the transaction using machine learning models and a blockchain record of the previous similar transactions. In response to the transaction risk score exceeding a threshold value, authenticate the transaction and the user using two-step authentication. The two-step authentication uses challenge/answer templates derived from the blockchain record of previous transactions.

A security platform architecture is described herein. A user identity platform architecture which uses a multitude of biometric analytics to create an identity token unique to an individual human. This token is derived on biometric factors like human behaviors, motion analytics, human physical characteristics like facial patterns, voice recognition prints, usage of device patterns, user location actions and other human behaviors which can derive a token or be used as a dynamic password identifying the unique individual with high calculated confidence. Because of the dynamic nature and the many different factors, this method is extremely difficult to spoof or hack by malicious actors or malware software.
