Further, banking and bill payment often is performed over such networks as it reduces the need for individuals to spend time by going to a bank or paying their bills manually. Likewise, points are redeemed by consumers over such networks.
[0004] While credit and debit cards facilitate purchases and payments made over networks, unauthorized persons continue to penetrate security measures to gain access to financial data, social security numbers and other personal information that allow them to transaction financial transactions on another person's account. For example, once a dishonest person has a credit card number, thousands of dollars can be improperly charged to the customer's credit card account.
[0005] Many systems and methods have been devised to detect unauthorized financial transactions made over a computer system. Many of these technique employ a well known encryption technique known as the private - public key system in which information is sent and confirmed. Most encryption schemes require the use of an encryption key that is known only to 2 of 12 the party encrypting information and to the intended recipient of the information who will decrypt it. While it is possible to embed an encryption key in an application designed to take an order and transmit it over a network, the embedded encryption key can be discovered by others who may then misuse it.
[0006] While many systems have been useful in reducing the unauthorized use of credit or debit lines, invalid transactions still plague the industry. There is a need, therefore, for an improved technique for reducing unauthorized financial transactions over a computer system.

DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE INVENTION
DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE INVENTION
[0030] In one embodiment, the present invention uses digital recording medium (e.g., an optical digital recording medium having a digital recording medium unique fingerprint associated with the digital recording medium and to allow a transaction to proceed if the digital recording medium unique fingerprint is discerned to be associated with a digital recording medium authorized for such transaction). Permission to conduct the transaction may optionally depend upon the authorized digital recording medium also being read on a processing device having a processing device fingerprint, or a processing device unique fingerprint, associated with a processing device authorized for such transaction.
[0031] In a further embodiment, the digital recording medium is marked with a material capable of being read by a digital recording medium reader attached to a computer system. Algorithms may be designed to detect the marks on the digital recording medium so as to determine the authenticity of the medium. For consummation of the transaction, fingerprinting the computer system and/or digital reader upon which the digital recording medium is read may also be required. Upon confirmation that an authorized medium has been read, and/or the fingerprint of the computer upon which it is read is also an authorized portal for the transaction, the transaction may be allowed. In an optional embodiment, the fingerprint of the digital recording medium and/or processing device is determined at multiple points in time with the transaction being interrupted at any point in time (up to consummation of the transaction) in which the fingerprint of the digital recording medium and/or processing device is not detected or is detected as changed or altered.
[0032] In yet a further embodiment of the invention, the digital recording medium is a transportable digital recording medium such as an optical digital recording medium having thereon a state-change material (which may be, for example, a short temporary state-change material or a transient state-change material), such as a light-activated state-change material. The state-change material is placed on such digital recording medium in a manner so as to encode the disc. Placement of the material may be anywhere on the medium where it may be read. The material preferably is activatable by energy produced by the reader as the reader interrogates the 7 of 12 area where the material is located. Detection of the material may be by any means, for example, detection of the material by measuring a parameter of the material, a change in a parameter of the material, or an effect of the material on its milieu. The state-change material may be advantageously placed in manner in respect of the digital datum indicia, such as the pits and lands on a DVD or CD, so as to cause a change in the data read from one read to another read (such as from one valid read to aiiother valid read, from a valid to an invalid read, from a valid to a correctable (by the medium's correction algorithms) invalid read, from a valid to an uncorrectable invalid read). An algorithm may then be applied to cause the reader of the digital recording medium to detect the material on the medium, as for example by detecting the change in data reads when a transient state change material is used.
[0033] In one aspect of such embodiments, the algorithm is found on the medium itself. Alternatively, such algorithms may be provided by a source distinct from the medium.
For example, such algorithms may be found associated with hardware of a computer or a network location remote from the hardware/medium. Then again, such algorithms may be found in a combination of such places. Such algorithm confirms the authenticity of the medium. This or other algorithms may also fingerprint the reader and/or computer to determine if the transaction is coming from an authorized portal. Again, such algorithm fingerprinting may be found on the medium itself in the hardware or in a source remote from the hardware/medium.

Then again, such algorithms may be found in a combination of such places. Such algorithm confirms the authenticity of the medium. This or other algorithms may also fingerprint the reader and/or computer to determine if the transaction is coming from an authorized portal. Again, such algorithm fingerprinting may be found on the medium itself in the hardware or in a source remote from the hardware/medium.
[0034] In an embodiment of the invention, a person who seeks to make transactions over a network is provided a medium with a fingerprint so as to identify it as a authorized medium for making transactions. Such fingerprint may be unique to the systein itself to uniquely identify the particular medium being used. Optionally, upon reading of such medium by a reader electronically associated with a processing device, an algorithm may be enacted which fingerprints the processing device and/or reader as to identify the processing device and/or reader as an authorized portal for making a transaction with the fingerprinted medium. An authorized fingerprint of the portal may be stored on the medium itself, at the transacting institute or at any site which may be queried through the network. The medium material fingerprint may also be stored at any of these sites.
[0035] In one aspect, the algorithms provides more than one portal to be authorized (i.e. allows more than one reader/processing device, such as a computer or a cell phone having a medium reader, etc.) for use of making transactions with the medium.
Fingerprinting of the 8 of 12 portal may employ, for example, measurable parameters with respect to the operating system of the portal, the configuration of portal (CPU, interleave value, etc) which may or may not uniquely identify the portal (although unique identification may improve authentication).
Fingerprinting of the 8 of 12 portal may employ, for example, measurable parameters with respect to the operating system of the portal, the configuration of portal (CPU, interleave value, etc) which may or may not uniquely identify the portal (although unique identification may improve authentication).
[0036] In yet another embodiment, the locking algorithms for determining whether a medium carries a fingerprint whicli allows a transaction to be made, and if needed for the transaction, the locking algorithms for assuring that only authorized portals are used in making a transactions, are stored on the medium itself, such as the digital recording medium. When the algorithms find, for example, that both the computer and medium are authorized for a transaction, the transaction is allowed.
[0037] When material is used to form the fingerprint, the material may be applied in or on the mediuin, or in association therewith (for example, on a label). For example, the material may be applied to a hardcoat that is applied to the medium, for example, when the medium is an optical digital recording medium.
[0038] In one embodiment, a state change material such as a light-activated state-change material, for example an transient optical state-change material, is applied to an optical digital recording medium (readable by an optical reader attached to a processing device, such as a computer terminal) as a fingerprint in a manner to cause change in the digital read of digital datum indicia on the medium. A locking algorithm on the medium, or which is provided by another source, checks to detect that the light-activated state change material is located in authorized positions on medium so as to act as an authorized medium for consummating a transaction. The locking algorithm (or other algorithm thereon) next checks to determine whether the computer system, or reader/processor system, has the fingerprint that is associated with a system that is authorized to be used in conjunction with that particular marked medium for permitting a transaction. If both the portal system and medium are not detected as being authorized, the transaction is not permitted. As indicated above, it is also in purview of the present invention that either or both locking algorithms may be stored other than on the medium, for example, elsewhere in the network.
[0039] The present invention thus allows the medium to be used to authenticate an financial transaction in a manner that is not done when traditional credit and/or debit card information is sent over a public network. In this sense, the medium may be said to be acting as 9 of 12 the credit and/or debit card. By requiring an inquiry of the actual medium and/or processing device upon which the medium is read to eventuate in a valid fingerprint for the transaction to occur, simple knowledge of a code (such as a credit card number) is not enough for the transaction to occur.
[0040] As would also be understood, the processing device of the present invention may or may not be a personal computer. For exaiuple, the processing device may be a chip located on the medium, the processor of a cell phone, the processor of a blackberry device etc. It should be also understood, that the locking algorithms and/or fingerprints may be stored in electronic storage such as in a processing device associated with the medium, rather in digital indicia itself.
