Credential quality assessment engine systems and methods
First Claim
1. An authentication risk management system, comprising:
- a biometric identification unit configured to sense biometric data from a user and produce an image of the sensed biometric data to be compared with a stored template associated with the user;
a biometric identification unit natural identification evaluation engine configured to provide a natural identification (ID) score based on a hardware marking, a quality of the image of the sensed biometric data and a matching granularity between the image of the sensed biometric data and the stored template;
a computed authentication engine configured to provide a computed authentication score based on at least one of a PIN, a password and a token; and
a credentials quality assessment engine (CQAE) configured to receive the natural ID score and the computed authentication score and to provide a CQAE authentication score based on a combination of the natural ID score and the computed authentication score.

Abstract
An authentication risk management system and method are disclose which may comprise a biometric identification unit configured to sense biometric data from a user and produce an image of the sensed biometric data with a stored template associated with the user; and a biometric identification unit natural identification evaluation engine configured to provide a natural identification authentication score. The system and method may further comprise a credentials quality assessment engine (“CQAE”) configured to receive the natural identification authentication score and to provide a CQAE authentication score based one of the natural ID score and a combination of the natural ID score and a received computed authentication score. The CQAE may comprise at least a part of a user authentication profile engine.

10. A method of authentication risk management, comprising:
-
producing biometric data from a user by sensing a biometric input with a biometric identification unit, and producing an image of the biometric input from the biometric data, and matching the image to a stored template associated with the user; providing an authentication risk management natural identification authentication score using a biometric identification unit natural identification evaluation engine, wherein the natural identification authentication score is based on a hardware marking, a quality of the image of the biometric input and a matching granularity between the image of the biometric input and the stored template; generating a computed authentication score based on at least one of a PIN, a password and a token; and receiving the natural identification authentication score and the computed authentication score and providing a credentials quality assessment engine (CQAE) authentication score based on a combination of the natural identification authentication score and the computed authentication score. - View Dependent Claims (11, 12, 13, 14, 15, 16)

17. A tangible machine readable medium storing instructions that, when executed by a computing device, cause the computing device to perform a method, the method comprising:
-
producing biometric data from a user by sensing a biometric with a biometric identification unit, and producing an image of the biometric from the biometric data, and matching the image to a stored template associated with the user; providing an authentication risk management natural identification authentication score using a biometric identification unit natural identification evaluation engine, wherein the natural identification authentication score is based on a hardware marking, a quality of the image of the biometric and a matching granularity between the image of the biometric and the stored template; generating a computed authentication score based on at least one of a PIN, a password and a token; and receiving the natural identification authentication score and the computed authentication score and providing a credentials quality assessment engine (CQAE) authentication score based on a combination of the natural identification authentication score and the computed authentication score. - View Dependent Claims (18, 19)
