US Patent 12105789 Enhanced consumer device validation

Unknown devices may be bound to an identity using a four step process that involves trusted relationships only between known partner entities and a known user attribute. The identity may be an account, such as a personal account number (PAN). The PAN may be abstracted using a token for use with the device. The unknown device may first be enrolled at a service to establish a cryptographically verifiable identity. A binding request for the enrolled device may be sent to an issuer of the PAN resulting in the issuer generating a challenge. After a successful authentication of the challenge at the token service provider, the binding of the token to the device is complete.
