Title: Method of authentication using device token
Inventor: JOSEPH ANTHONY PIANEZZA
IPC: G06Q20/38
Filed: 2020-09-24
Abstract: Processing a financial transaction between a user 101 and a merchant 104 begins by verifying the user’s identity using their personal communication device, such as a smartphone 103. Two tokens are generated: a payment token associated with the user’s payment card 102, and a merchant device token associated with both the merchant and the user’s personal communication device. The transaction is then processed using both tokens. Payment card details may be provided to the merchant before processing the transaction. The user may be directed to an authentication screen after providing details of their payment card. Verifying the user’s identity may comprise prompting the user to enter, onto the authentication screen, a one-time password received on their personal communication device. Identity verification may also comprise the user entering a personal identification number or biometric identification on their personal communication device. Authentication information may be attached to the merchant device token. The tokens may be used to generate a cryptogram to initiate the transaction. The cryptogram may be sent to a merchant server 105 via a different personal communication device to the one used to make the transaction. An issuer server 108 may authenticate the transaction by verifying payment card credentials.

Title: Improvements in and relating to data analytics in a telecommunication network
Inventor: MEHRDAD SHARIAT
IPC: H04W24/00
Filed: 2021-03-12
Abstract: A consumer network function (NF) determines how analytics data from individual sources is collected and analysed in a distributed manner from a plurality of network data analytic Functions (NWDAF); in a centralised manner by aggregating analytics data from a the NWDAFs before analysing at an aggregator NWDAF; or a mixture of both. NWDAFs may have specialised functions which aggregate analytics from areas of interest of target users, and general functions to notify analytics per area of interest of per set of target users. Capability information of NWDAFs relating to network aggregation capabilities may be stored in a network repository function NRF. A NF may determine from which NWDAFs to collect data based on NWDAF capability as part of its selection criteria, where the criteria may comprise newly registered capabilities in NRF, determined based on the load level per NWDAF, analytics IDs supported per NWDAF and Key performance indicators KPIs. An aggregation point identifier AP ID, defined per Aggregator NWDAF, provided as assistance information registered in NRF, may indicate which NWDAFs area able to act as an aggregation point. A NF determines how NWDAFs operate together and based on implemented selection criteria, decides how to collect data from them.
