Patent ID: 11863682

Abstract:
Methods and systems are described for performing multifactor authentication. An authentication code may be encrypted in optical indica. Optionally, Advanced Encryption Standard (AES), Rivest-Shamir-Adleman (RSA), DES (Data Encryption Standard), and/or a hashing function may be utilized to encrypt the authentication code. An image of the authentication code may be captured from a device having a display using a digital camera. The image may be in a compressed format and transmitted over a network to an image analysis system. The image analysis system may decode the optical indicia to obtain the encoded authentication data and may perform decryption on the decoded data. If a hashing function is utilized to encrypt the authentication data, the encoded authentication data may be compared to a hash of stored authentication data. If needed, the image analysis system may perform image enhancement prior to performing decoding, including contrast enhancement, deblurring, and/or image rotation. Image enhancement may be performed using a neural network. The authentication data and location data associated with the digital camera may be utilized to authenticate the device.
