Network-1 Receives New eSIM Patent from U.S. Patent Office Expanding Its M2M/IoT Patent Portfolio to 50 Patents Worldwide

NEW CANAAN, CT / ACCESSWIRE / August 28, 2023 / Network-1 Technologies, Inc. (NYSE American:NTIP), a company engaged in the acquisition, development, licensing, and monetization of intellectual property, announced today that the U.S. Patent and Trademark Office has issued U.S. Patent No. 11,736,283, Key Derivation for a Module Using an Embedded Universal Integrated Circuit Card.

The newly issued patent is part of comprehensive family of patents that relates to, among other things, the enabling technology for authenticating and using embedded SIM cards (eSIMs) in next generation IoT, Machine-to-Machine, and other mobile devices, including smartphones, tablets, and computers as well as automobiles. eSIMs replace the traditional SIM card with internal circuitry that can be remotely provisioned with one or more profiles to access wireless networks. A recent study by the Trusted Connectivity Alliance (TCA) found that consumer profile downloads to smartphones, watches, tablets, automobiles, and other similar devices increased by more than 130% in 2022. Similarly, industrial machine-to-machine (M2M) implementations for meters, sensors, automobiles, tracking devices and similar devices grew by 145%. According to TCA, total eSIM enabled device shipments during 2022 approximated 427 million units.

Other patents in the portfolio relate to enabling technologies for 5G network authentication used in consumer and M2M devices, and the latest available Internet transport layer security solutions.

Network-1's M2M/IoT Patent Portfolio now includes thirty-six (36) issued U.S. patents (and 4 pending applications), plus fourteen (14) issued non-U.S. patents (and 1 pending non-U.S. patent application). The patent terms of the MTM/IoT Patent Portfolio are currently expected to extend until 2033-2034. Network-1 anticipates further issuances of additional claims for the M2M/IoT Patent Portfolio.
