Abstract:
A mobile device including a unique toll-free ID (TFID) present in the mobile device operable to facilitate toll-free communication between the mobile device and a manufacturer.
Abstract:
A method of receiving a one-click activation request from a user, including searching and reserving toll-free numbers in a “One-Click” manner and providing users with the ability to create a standard toll-free service in the interim with number forwarding.
Abstract:
A method for determining a trust indicator is provided. The method may include interpreting, via an Internet of Things Universal Identifier (IoT UID) processing circuit, an IoT UID corresponding to a device and identifying, via a record management circuit and based at least in part on the IoT UID, a record in a database corresponding to the device. The method may further include determining, via a trust analysis circuit and based at least in part on the record, a risk indicator of the device and transmitting, via an indicator provisioning circuit, the risk indicator.
Abstract:
A system for assigning reputation scores is provided. The system includes a first database, a second database, and a registrar server. The first database stores first data corresponding to at least one telecommunications identifier. The second database stores second data corresponding to the at least one telecommunications identifier. The registrar server is structured to: access and interpret the first data and the second data to determine one or more attributes for the at least one telecommunications identifier; determine a reputation score for the at least one telecommunications identifier; and transmit the reputation score.
Abstract:
A method including: receiving a user report dataset indicating fraudulent activity corresponding to a phone number; responsive to receiving the user report dataset, identifying a record in a database corresponding to the phone number; and tagging the record to identify the phone number as being associated with fraudulent activity.
Abstract:
A method for identifying a fraudulent phone number is provided. The method includes receiving a user report dataset indicating fraudulent activity corresponding to a phone number, and responsive to receiving the user report dataset, identifying a record in a database corresponding to the phone number. The method further includes tagging the record to identify the phone number as being associated with fraudulent activity.

Abstract:
An apparatus for provisioning embedded Internet of Things Universal IDs (IoT UIDs) in Brownfield devices. The apparatus includes a display circuit, a requestor circuit, a request provisioning circuit, an IoT UID processing circuit, and an IoT UID provisioning circuit. The display circuit generates a graphical user interface (GUI) configured to receive one or more user input command values corresponding to device property data for one or more Brownfield devices. The requestor circuit generates a registration request that includes the device property data. The request provisioning circuit transmits the registration request to an IoT device registrar server. The IoT UID processing circuit interprets one or more IoT UIDs generated by the IoT device registrar server in response to the registration request. The IoT UID provisioning circuit at least one of: transmits the one or more IoT UIDs, or displays the one or more IoT UIDs on an electronic display.
Abstract:
A method for registering one or more Brownfield devices via a virtual Internet of Things Universal Identifier (IoT UID) is provided. The method includes identifying one or more Brownfield devices, generating device property data based at least in part on the one or more Brownfield devices, and transmitting, to an IoT device registrar server, a registration request that includes the device property data. The method further includes interpreting one or more IoT UIDs generated in response to the transmitting of the registration request.
Abstract:
An apparatus for detecting fraudulent activity includes a device property data processing circuit, a security analysis circuit, an alert circuit, and an alert provisioning circuit. The device property data processing circuit is structured to interpret device property data corresponding to a device registered with an Internet of Things (IoT) device registry. The security analysis circuit is structured to determine, based at least in part on the device property data, that the device is subject to a fraud event. The alert circuit is structured to generate, responsive to the determined fraud event, a message that identifies the device. The alert provisioning circuit is structured to transmit the message.
