$2,000 awarded for Biogy cybersecurity patent prior art

Unified is pleased to announce PATROLL crowdsourcing contest winners, Ekta Aswal and Dinesh Swami, who split a cash award of $2,000 for their prior art submissions on U.S. Patent 7,669,236, owned by Biogy, Inc., an NPE. The ‘236 patent specification generally relates to cybersecurity and preventing access to an entity by unauthorized entities. A generated passcode is received by another system, which authenticates the passcode by at least generating a passcode from a passcode generator, and comparing the generated passcode with the received passcode.

We would also like to thank the dozens of other high-quality submissions that were made on this patent. The ongoing contests are open to anyone, and include tens of thousands of dollars in rewards available for helping the industry to challenge NPE patents of questionable validity by finding and submitting prior art in the contests.
