Latest Patents

One of his latest patents is titled "Method and system for verifying entitlement to access content by URL validation." This invention includes a mechanism that entitles users to access transacted-for digital content. It indicates download authorization through discrete authentication URLs and validates download attempts using each URL. The authentication mechanism involves producing an encrypted string included in a URL provided to the user. This encrypted string contains transaction identifier information and details about the transacted-for entitlement. When a user wishes to exercise their entitlement, they activate the URL, which resolves to a location that can access the keys used to produce the encrypted string. The string is then decrypted, and the information is used to validate the URL and the entitlement. The validation process can utilize data retrieved from a database, using the transaction identifier as a key. Furthermore, the entitlement information in the decrypted string can be compared with prior download information.
