A product is sold at retail in an unusable state. Activation of the product does not require any steps be taken b y the retail seller. To activate the product, the purchaser uses a phone or personal computer to interact with a registration server for this type of product. Alter the consumer has provided sufficient identifying information, the registration server interacts with a qualification server that determines whether the purchaser meets the qualifications set for this type of product. For a weapon sale, this is typically a criminal background check. If qualified, the registration server receives an indication of qualification from the qualification server. The registration server and product communicate over a network to establish trust, store information in the product, and then activate the product. The product receives information via a network appliance, for example, a phone or personal computer. The receiver may sense sound from a speaker or light from a display of the network appliance. The product transmits information onto the network directly when the network appliance has a suitable receiver. Otherwise, the product provides the information to the purchaser who enters the information into a user interface of the network appliance. The user interface may perform voice recognition or accept data via a pointing device or keyboard. The serial number of the product is transmitted to the registration server. A description of the purchaser and/or qualification results are stored in the product.

The system and method of matching candidates and employers provides a user interface that requires job candidates to enter profile data to a database. The system imposes on the candidate, skills data entry and ranking from predefined lists of technical skills and soft skills. A background check authorization option is provided. The system accepts employer open job profile data that includes job titles, technical skills, soft skills, special requirements, education, certification, security clearance requirements, keywords and background check requirements. Candidate skills and experience profile data are utilized by a matching engine that processes all candidate and open job profiles. Match scores are generated by a unique matching logic to identify candidates with the best fit for a particular job opening. Candidates can only view job openings for which they are selected as top candidates. Employers can only view profiles of candidates who have authorized them to do so.

The provenance of passengers intending to depart on a vehicle from a transportation facility, is ensured by providing biometric reading devices at both a check-in station and a departure area station of the facility. The name and/or other information concerning a passenger arriving at the facility is also entered for assessment into a background check system. A biometric template of the passenger is acquired by the reading device at the check-in station and forwarded to the departure area station. When the passenger appears at the latter station, a second biometric template is acquired by the reading device there. The second template is compared with each of a number of templates that were forwarded from the check-in station. If no match exists, or if the background check system returns an unsatisfactory assessment, the passenger is refused boarding onto the vehicle.

A computer-operated method for distributing job-seeker qualifications to hiring entities comprises job-seeker registration and secure internet entry/uploading, of personal data into a program administrator server, to selectively populate one or more data fields, including a résumé module, a photo/video module, a verification module, and a pre-employment screening module. The job-seeker selects a distribution security scheme, which may include requiring a password to view data, and the program administrator encodes a bar code based upon inputted data and filter/security selections, and sends the bar code to the seeker, who forwards the bar code to one or more hiring entities, who use it and a password for online viewing of the seeker's personal data. The bar code is customizable to be hiring-entity-specific and to permit only selective viewing of the entire stored databank, and may also be subsequently disabled. The bar code facilitates seeker tracking of a time/date of data viewing.

When a user is requested to provide the user's social security number (SSN) or other personal information for conducting a credit/background check, the user may use a mobile app on the user's mobile device to display a unique identifier which is used in place of the SSN for processing the user's credit/risk analysis. The unique identifier is used as a protection layer on top of a user's SSN to reduce chances of identity fraud. In particular, an unique identifier (token) may be generated and issued to current payment account holders or new payment account holders when they sign up for payment accounts. When a merchant requires a customer's social security number for performing a credit or background check on the customer, the customer may simply provide the unique identifier and may be cleared to start using the merchant service without exposing the customer's SSN.
