BlackBerry had one patents in big data during Q2 2024. BlackBerry Ltd has developed a risk-aware access control system that detects requests to perform actions involving different factors such as people, devices, documents, and location. The system determines the risk level associated with the requested action based on the factors and either denies or allows the action based on a security policy.

Application: Risk-aware access control system and related methods (Patent ID: US20240121244A1)
The patent filed by BlackBerry Ltd. describes a risk-aware access control system and methods for detecting and managing requests to perform actions based on different factors and their associated risk levels. The system involves determining couplings between factors, assessing risk levels, and enforcing security policies by allowing or denying actions accordingly. The method includes grouping couplings into clusters, assigning risk levels to clusters, and using user authentication challenges to control access. Additionally, the system can trigger security actions in response to unsuccessful authentication challenges, such as sending messages, adjusting security levels, locking devices, ending user sessions, or wiping data. The coupling can be based on factors like duration or frequency, and the requested actions can be detected using various sensors like motion sensors, cameras, microphones, and data analyzers.
The patent also covers a non-transitory machine-readable medium with instructions for detecting requests, determining couplings, assessing risk levels, and denying actions that do not meet security policies. The coupling value can be computed based on factors like interaction frequency or time duration. The medium includes provisions for allowing or denying actions based on cluster risk levels and denying actions if couplings are not grouped within clusters. The coupling can be duration-based or frequency-based. Furthermore, the patent describes a computing device with a processor configured to implement the risk-aware access control system by detecting requests, determining couplings, assessing risk levels, and enforcing security policies by denying actions that do not meet the required risk level.
