Biogy authentication patent challenge instituted

On May 28, 2025, three weeks after Unified filed an ex parte reexamination, the Central Reexamination Unit (CRU) granted Unified’s request, finding substantial new questions of patentability on the challenged claims of U.S. Patent 7,669,236, owned and asserted by Biogy, Inc., an NPE. The ‘236 patent is directed to the generation and authentication of a one-time passcode in a multi-factor authentication system. It had been asserted against Alberstons Companies, and Microsoft and Okta recently filed DJs of noninfringement against Biogy.
