A computer-implemented method, a medical device, and a system for acquiring user-specific customization data, i.e. user-specific language packages, are provided. The computer-implemented method comprises: determining a first set of user-specific customization data stored on the medical device; comparing the first set of user-specific customization data with a second set of user-specific customization data that is required by a user; and upon determining that the second set of user-specific customization data is different from the first set of user-specific customization data, acquiring, from a data storage external to the medical device, the second set of user-specific customization data or a delta between the first set and the second set of user-specific customization data.

A system may receive first level authentication data from a first user, authorize first level access to a secure device, and transmit a push notification including a second factor authentication key to a first user device responsive to first factor authentication data matching stored authentication data for the first user. The system may receive a wireless communication from the first user device attenuated by one or more beam attenuating materials to form a first attenuated beam profile. In response to a match of the first attenuated beam profile to a stored beam profile beyond a predetermined threshold, the system may associate the second factor authentication key as an authorized login credential for the first user. The system may receive the second factor authentication key from the first user and authorize the second factor authentication data to grant the first user second level access to the secure device.

An authentication system uses machine learning models to quantify a degree of risk that a given request to authenticate as a particular user of an organization is not in fact originating from that user, but rather from a malicious actor attempting to gain access to the user's account. More particularly, the authentication system employs both a user model that quantifies a degree of deviation from a user context in which a particular user typically requests authentication, and an organization model that quantifies a degree of deviation of a current context of the organization from a “normal” context for that organization. The user model and the organization can be employed individually, such as the organization model providing organization administrators with insights into the current security status of the organization, or together, such as using the risk scores of both models when assessing how to respond to a particular authentication request.

A server device receives, from a user device, a session initiation request and information identifying a location of the user device, and receives, from a monitoring device that is separate from the user device, an authentication request and information identifying a location of the monitoring device. The server device processes the session initiation request and the authentication request to authenticate a user of the user device, and determines, based on the location of the user device and the location of the monitoring device, that the user device and the monitoring device are collocated. The server device creates, after authenticating the user of the user device and determining that user device and the monitoring device are collocated, a session token, and sends the session token to the user device to enable the user device to access at least one resource of the server device.

A method for securing electronic transactions includes associating a mobile electronic device with a first user. A first computer system retrievably stores registration data relating to the first user, including a device identifier that is unique to the mobile electronic device. A security application that supports in-application push notifications is installed on the mobile electronic device. The first computer system sends a push notification to the mobile electronic device, the push notification prompting the first user to provide a confirmation reply via a user interface of the security application for activating the mobile electronic device as a security token. The mobile electronic device is activated as a security token for the first user in response to receiving at the first computer system, from the mobile electronic device, the confirmation reply from the first user.

A security system for a vehicle network of a vehicle is provided. The vehicle network includes a gateway and domain controllers for specific areas of the vehicle. The security system may validate messages sent from the gateway. The security system may also utilize split decryption keys in order to decrypt messages in the vehicle network. The security system may also utilize asymmetrical encryption keys in order to secure data within the vehicle network.

A system for probe-based risk analysis for multi-factor authentication having a multi-dimensional time series data server configured to monitor and record a network's traffic data and to serve the traffic data to other modules and a directed computational graph module configured to probe connection destinations for a response, analyze any received responses, and determine a verification score needed before granting access based at least in part on the analysis of the received responses. A plurality of verification methods build up a user's verification score to required level to gain access.

A user, using a user-computing device connected to a computer network, is authenticated to access a computing resource managed by a system on the computer network. The user computing device presents a user interface to prompt the user to input a value for each of a set of user-defined credentials that the user has previously defined for a SAIF server to authenticate the user to access the computer resource, thereby forming a set of input values. Modified values, each generated from and representing a corresponding one of the input values, are transmitted and validated by comparing them with corresponding modified forms of user-defined credential values stored in a memory, thereby determining whether the user is authenticated to access the computing resource on the system.

A mobile device can detect an idle state and, in response, initiate an access monitoring function to covertly monitor activity involving a human interaction with the mobile device. The covert monitoring is undetectable by a user of the mobile device. The mobile device can then detect a human interaction with the mobile device and, in response, cause the mobile device to covertly capture and log one or more human interactions with the mobile device. An authorized user of the mobile device is enabled to review the log of human interactions with the mobile device.

A method of sharing encrypted data includes, by an electronic device, receiving a password from a user to perform an action, receiving a salt value, generating a user key using the password and salt value, receiving an encrypted key location identifier value, decrypting the encrypted key location identifier value to obtain a key location identifier, receiving an encrypted read token value, decrypting the encrypted read token value using the user key to obtain a read token value, and transmitting the read token value and the key location identifier to a server electronic device.
