Latest Patents

Both of Ummaneni’s listed patents are titled “Systems and Methods for Authentication Brokering.” They describe complementary approaches to enabling client applications to authenticate with network services.

One patent outlines a token software development kit that requests credentials from a broker using a unique client-application identifier. The kit receives a service ticket, places it in a token object, and includes that object in a context object provided to the client application. The application then uses the context object to authenticate with a service.

The other patent describes the credential broker’s role. The broker uses the client application’s unique identifier to query an application attestation datastore, obtains the relevant network-service identifier, and requests a service ticket from a key distribution center. It then returns the ticket to the token software development kit.
