Dynapass Holdings IP LLC

Dynapass Holdings IP LLC is a non-practicing entity (NPE), also characterized as a patent assertion entity (PAE), and is a subsidiary of Dynapass, Inc.. Details regarding its headquarters, founding year, or specific size (employee count, revenue) are not publicly available.

As an NPE, Dynapass Holdings IP LLC does not produce products or offer services. Instead, it holds and asserts intellectual property rights. Its primary focus is a patent portfolio related to personal communication device authentication technologies, specifically U.S. Patent No. 6,993,658 B1, which generally covers two-factor authentication systems utilizing mobile devices to safeguard confidential data.

Dynapass Holdings IP LLC's patent litigation posture is that of an NPE asserting its acquired portfolio. While the provided case data lists it as a defendant in a single Patent Trial and Appeal Board (P.T.A.B.) case, "Unified Patents, LLC v. Dynapass Holdings IP LLC," this case represents a challenge to the validity of its asserted patent. Historically, Dynapass Holdings IP LLC has been an active plaintiff, filing numerous patent infringement lawsuits against major financial institutions such as JPMorgan Chase, Bank of America, Wells Fargo, and PNC, as well as companies like Amazon and Experian. Many of these infringement actions have been filed in the U.S. District Court for the Eastern District of Texas.

The notable P.T.A.B. case, Unified Patents, LLC v. Dynapass Holdings IP LLC, initiated on January 6, 2023, involves a petition for inter partes review (IPR) against U.S. Patent 6,993,658. The P.T.A.B. subsequently instituted trial on all challenged claims in this IPR, suggesting that the patent's validity in the context of two-factor authentication systems is under scrutiny. Unified Patents is an organization dedicated to deterring patent assertions by NPEs by directly challenging the validity of their patents.
