SYSTEMS AND METHODS FOR CONTINUAL DEVICE AUTHENTICATION IN VIRTUAL ENVIRONMENTS - A simplified explanation of the abstract
This abstract first appeared for US patent application 20240378280 titled 'SYSTEMS AND METHODS FOR CONTINUAL DEVICE AUTHENTICATION IN VIRTUAL ENVIRONMENTS
Simplified Explanation: The patent application describes a method for continual device authentication in virtual reality environments. It involves authenticating a user device associated with a virtual reality environment based on received authentication credentials.
- The method includes receiving a request for authentication of a user device in a virtual reality environment.
- Authentication credentials, such as unique device identifiers, are received and used to authenticate the user device.
- Virtual input objects are presented in the virtual reality environment to receive user inputs for authentication.
- The authentication process ensures secure access to the virtual reality environment for the user.
Key Features and Innovation:
- Continual device authentication in virtual reality environments.
- Use of unique device identifiers for authentication.
- Presentation of virtual input objects for user interaction.
- Secure access to virtual reality environments based on authentication credentials.
Potential Applications: This technology can be applied in virtual reality gaming, training simulations, and secure virtual environments for various industries.
Problems Solved:
- Ensures secure access to virtual reality environments.
- Prevents unauthorized users from accessing virtual reality content.
- Enhances user experience by providing seamless authentication processes.
Benefits:
- Improved security in virtual reality environments.
- Enhanced user privacy and data protection.
- Streamlined authentication processes for users.
Commercial Applications: The technology can be used in virtual reality gaming platforms, virtual training programs, and secure virtual collaboration tools for businesses.
Questions about continual device authentication in virtual environments: 1. How does the method ensure the security of authentication credentials in virtual reality environments? 2. What are the potential challenges in implementing continual device authentication in virtual reality applications?
Frequently Updated Research: Ongoing research in virtual reality security and user authentication methods may provide further insights into enhancing the technology described in the patent application.
Original Abstract Submitted
systems, methods, and computer program products are provided herein for continual device authentication in virtual environments. an example method includes receiving a request for authentication of a first user device associated with a first user where the first user device is associated with a virtual reality environment for the first user. the method further includes receiving authentication credentials associated with the first user and authenticating the first user device for accessing the virtual reality environment based on the authentication credentials. the received authentication credentials may include one or more unique device identifiers associated with the first user device. the method may further include causing presentation of a plurality of virtual input objects in the virtual reality environment and receiving one or more user inputs via the plurality of virtual input objects in the virtual reality environment for determining the authentication credentials associated with the first user.
