An overriding purpose of the § 101 analysis is to prevent patentees from preempting “the basic tools of scientific and technological work” and “thereby thwarting the primary object of the patent laws.” See Alice Corp. Pty. Ltd. v. CLS Bank Int’l, 134 S. Ct. 2347, 2354 (2014)
(quotation omitted). StrikeForce’s claims, which are directed to specific computer architectural configurations, do not preempt all methods of authentication—or even all methods of out-of-band
authentication. In fact, among the more than twenty-five methods of authentication SecureAuth promotes on its website (of which StrikeForce has accused only three) are several that use forms of out-of-band authentication not precluded by StrikeForce’s claims.
