Multifactor authentication using internet domain name retrieval
An enrollment system uses a camera to scan an identification document to generate an image. A name of an organization is extracted from the image. The enrollment system obtains one or more Internet domain names associated with the organization. Using a graphical user interface, a prompt is displayed seeking input of an e-mail address of a user of the enrollment system. The input of the e-mail address is received via the graphical user interface. The enrollment system determines that the e-mail address is associated with the one or more Internet domain names. An e-mail is sent to the e-mail address of the user. The enrollment system determines that the user has clicked on a hyperlink in the e-mail using a mobile device that is different from the enrollment system. The enrollment system performs functions to enroll the mobile device in a service plan operated by a mobile network operator.
1 . An enrollment system comprising:
at least one hardware processor; and
at least one non-transitory memory storing instructions, which, when executed by the at least one hardware processor, cause the enrollment system to:
scan, using a camera of the enrollment system, an identification document to generate an image of the identification document;
extract a name of an organization from the image;
obtain, from a computer server and based on the name of the organization, one or more Internet domain names associated with the organization;
display, using a graphical user interface of the enrollment system, a prompt seeking input of an e-mail address of a user of the enrollment system;
receive, via, the graphical user interface, the input of the e-mail address, wherein the e-mail address is associated with a particular Internet domain name;
determine that the particular Internet domain name is one of the one or more Internet domain names associated with the organization;
responsive to determining that the particular Internet domain name is one of the one or more Internet domain names,
send an e-mail to the e-mail address of the user,
wherein the e-mail comprises a clickable hyperlink;
determine that the user has clicked the clickable hyperlink using a mobile device that is different from the enrollment system; and
responsive to determining that the user has clicked the clickable hyperlink,
perform functions to enroll the mobile device in a service plan operated by a mobile network operator associated with the enrollment system.
2 . The enrollment system of claim 1 , wherein the enrollment system is operating on a first telecommunications network, and
wherein the mobile device is operating on a second telecommunications network different from the first telecommunications network.
3 . The enrollment system of claim 1 , wherein the enrollment system is operating on a telecommunications network, and
wherein the mobile device is roaming on the telecommunications network.
4 . The enrollment system of claim 1 , wherein the service plan is a first service plan,
wherein the mobile network operator is a first mobile network operator, and
wherein the mobile device is enrolled in a second service plan operated by a second mobile network operator prior to being enrolled in the first service plan.
5 . The enrollment system of claim 1 , wherein the service plan is a post-paid service plan.
6 . The enrollment system of claim 1 , wherein the instructions to extract the name of the organization cause the enrollment system to:
perform optical character recognition on the image to identify text within the image; and
obtain the name of the organization from the text.
7 . The enrollment system of claim 1 , wherein the enrollment system and the mobile device communicate via short range wireless communication.
8 . At least one non-transitory computer-readable storage medium storing instructions, which, when executed by at least one data processor of a system, cause the system to:
scan, using a camera, an identification document to generate an image of the identification document;
determine a name of an organization displayed by the image;
obtain, from a computer server and based on the name of the organization, one or more Internet domain names associated with the organization;
display a prompt for input from a user of the system;
receive, at the system, the input comprising an e-mail address of the user;
determine that the e-mail address is associated with the one or more Internet domain names;
send an e-mail to the e-mail address of the user;
determine that a hyperlink in the e-mail has been clicked on an electronic device; and
perform functions to enroll the user in a service plan operated by a mobile network operator associated with the system.
9 . The non-transitory computer-readable storage medium of claim 8 , wherein the user is associated with the organization.
10 . The non-transitory computer-readable storage medium of claim 8 , wherein the instructions to determine the name of the organization cause the system to:
extract a feature vector from the image; and
provide, using a machine learning model, the name of the organization based on the feature vector,
wherein the machine learning model is trained to determine organizational names displayed by training images.
11 . The non-transitory computer-readable storage medium of claim 8 , wherein the organization is a university.
12 . The non-transitory computer-readable storage medium of claim 8 , wherein the identification document is a student visa.
13 . The non-transitory computer-readable storage medium of claim 8 , wherein the instructions cause the system to generate, using a generative artificial intelligence model and based on the name of the organization displayed by the image, the prompt for the input from the user.
14 . The non-transitory computer-readable storage medium of claim 8 , wherein the instructions to perform functions to enroll the user in the service plan cause the system to send a message to a computer server operated by the mobile network operator.
15 . A method performed by a computer system, the method comprising:
receiving, using one or more computer processors, an image of an identification document;
causing a prompt to be displayed on a screen of an electronic device;
receiving, from the electronic device, an e-mail address associated with a user;
obtaining a name of an organization from the image;
obtaining, based on the name of the organization, one or more Internet domain names associated with the organization;
determining that the e-mail address is associated with the one or more Internet domain names;
sending an e-mail comprising a clickable link to the e-mail address;
determining that the link in the e-mail has been clicked on a mobile device; and
sending, to a computer server, a message authenticating an identity of the user.
16 . The method of claim 15 , wherein the image has been scanned by the electronic device or the mobile device.
17 . The method of claim 15 , wherein obtaining the name is performed using a machine learning model based on features extracted from the image.
18 . The method of claim 15 , comprising:
generating, using a generative artificial intelligence model and based on the image, the prompt.
19 . The method of claim 15 , wherein the electronic device is the mobile device.
20 . The method of claim 15 , comprising performing functions to enroll at least one of the user, the electronic device, or the mobile device in a service plan operated by a mobile network operator associated with the computer system.
