USING TOKENS FROM PUSH NOTIFICATION PROVIDERS TO ENHANCE DEVICE FINGERPRINTING - A simplified explanation of the abstract

This abstract first appeared for US patent application 20240114026 titled 'USING TOKENS FROM PUSH NOTIFICATION PROVIDERS TO ENHANCE DEVICE FINGERPRINTING

Simplified Explanation

The patent application describes a system for enhanced device fingerprinting, which involves receiving device attributes from an application, storing them in a device profile, and transmitting push notifications based on a push token provided by a push token service.

  • The system receives device attributes from an application, including a push token uniquely paired to the client device.
  • The system transmits the device attributes to a device database for storage in a device profile.
  • The system sends push notifications to the client device based on the push token.
  • The system receives a deliverable status from the application indicating the success of the push notification transmission.
  • The system stores the deliverable status in a notification delivery profile in a notification database.

Potential Applications

This technology could be applied in mobile app authentication, targeted advertising, and user behavior analysis.

Problems Solved

This technology solves the problem of accurately identifying and authenticating client devices, as well as tracking the delivery status of push notifications.

Benefits

The benefits of this technology include improved device authentication, enhanced user experience through targeted push notifications, and better data tracking for analysis and optimization.

Potential Commercial Applications

Potential commercial applications of this technology include mobile app development, marketing and advertising platforms, and data analytics services.

Possible Prior Art

One possible prior art for this technology could be existing device fingerprinting methods used in cybersecurity and digital marketing industries.

Unanswered Questions

1. How does the system ensure the security and privacy of the device attributes and push notifications? 2. Are there any limitations or compatibility issues with different types of client devices and push token services?


Original Abstract Submitted

embodiments disclosed are directed to a system that performs steps to perform enhanced device fingerprinting. the system at least at receives from an application, a plurality of device attributes identifying a client device on which the application is being used. the plurality of device attributes includes a push token provided by a push token service to the client device. the push token is uniquely paired to the client device. the system further transmits, to a device database, the plurality of device attributes for storage in a device profile. the system also transmits, to the application, a push notification based on the push token. the system receives, from the application, a deliverable status indicating whether the push notification was successfully transmitted to the client device, and transmits, to a notification database, the deliverable status for storage in a notification delivery profile. the system can use the information to authenticate a device.
